BOLD AND BEAUTIFUL

Akbar Gbajabiamila (Max): The former NFL player and commentator, current host of AMERICAN NINJA WARRIOR and a new cohost of THE TALK, makes his B&B debut on January 18 as a work confidant of Carter. Man, I was so excited,” raves Lawrence Saint-Victor (Carter) of working with his new scene partner. “I won't give the scenes away but he's a friend of Carter's, so the scenes are fun and friendly. It's not just Forrester business stuff. He's a person in Carter's world who the audience hasn't seen, but he has been around. Akbar is so great. We worked this stuff! It's amazing to be in a scene with someone who is just two times bigger than me (laughs). I'm usually, like, the biggest guy on set and then he walked in and I was like, 'I feel like a child!' He's an athlete and it shows. It was a great time and I hope he comes back. It makes sense, so I'd love to see that happen.

Kevin Spirtas (Craig Wesley): Craig returns to town on January 21 to see Nancy (Patrika Darbo) and Chloe (Nadia Bjorlin).
