Hank Northrop Joins Days of Our Lives Cast

Hank Northrop, son of the late Wayne Northrop and Lynn Herring, is set to join the cast of 'Days of Our Lives' in a new role later this year, having begun filming recently. He shared that he auditioned shortly after his father's passing in November 2024 and received the news of his casting on his birthday, January 9, calling it a 'cosmic' moment that helped him cope with his grief. Northrop will be working closely with James Reynolds, who played a pivotal role alongside his father on the show. He described his experience on set as emotional and welcoming, expressing gratitude for the opportunity to continue his father's legacy in a series that both men cherished. Northrop's previous acting credits include roles in shows like 'The Morning Show' and 'The Bold and the Beautiful.' This connection to his family's soap opera history has made this role particularly significant for him.
