After weeks of rumors and speculation, Deidre Hall has finally confirmed her return to Days of Our Lives as tortured heroine Dr. Marlena Evans.

She broke the news in an exclusive interview with Hollywood 411's Audrey Cleo.

Here's an excerpt, courtesy of TV Guide:

Quote:


Deidre: "There's a place for daytime drama in our lives. We are your family. We're there when you're sick, when you're lonely, when your own family didn't show up... we are there in your home with you. There's a hunger for that."

Deidre: "It's not the same show I left. This is a brand new show... it's a brand new Days of Our Lives. We are turning back the clock to when the fans loved it. We're flipping the hourglass."

Deidre: "I know [what Marlena's story is going to be]. watch on September 26th. There are people coming, people going, some old faces are coming back. Fans are going to love it."

YAY! I am so looking forward to it. The NuDays I mean. Not necessarily about Marlena coming back. Not quite sure how I feel about her. I am excited to have John coming back though.

Frankly, I can't stand the character or the actress and that quote is an example of why. Talk about thinking highly of yourself.

I'm kind of excited about this. I just don't want to see John try to eat Marlena's face.

Thanks GG! I am glad that they are finally confirming the returns. Does anyone know when Jack returns? Maybe it will be around that same time.

I think he returns before then because he started taping the end of may.
