Just like Oscar nominees James Franco is appearing on General Hospital and Julianne Moore appeared on As The World Turns, Academy Award nominee Eric Roberts will appear on The Young and The Restless. According to
Entertainment Weekly The Coca Cola Kid will be playing a lawyer representing Adam Wilson on the CBS soap from July 12th through August. No word if his contract could be extended past August, but I am sure if both sides agree to it he could become a permanent fixture on the show.
Hopefully with these three Oscar nominees appearing on the daytime dramas more will follow suit and the ratings and recognition will improve the soap operas.
