Per Jason 47 in Facebook:
Thaao Penghlis (Tony) reveals that he is taping at "Days" on March 8 and that the character of EJ DiMera has been recast.

I agree doolfan4life . I have never liked EJ. Then again, there are very few Dimeras that I do like.

Ejami fans are going to be mad. I liked EJ, but I liked him with Nicole. Ejami was just completely tainted for me after what he did. I wonder how long this recast is for.

Glad Tony is coming back. (At least, I hope it's Tony. The fact he's with E.J. makes me wonder if it's André. Then again, I'm just happy to have Thaao Penghlis back on Days). Anyway, I could do without E.J., but I'm sure it'll be interesting to see their return. Wonder how long their return(s) will be.

I ended up liking EJ, but I liked the actor and the chemistry he had with Allison Sweeney. A recast is going to be very tricky.

A bunch of people are hoping it is Daniel Goddard. He used to be on Y&R and he is Australian.. I looked him up, very hunky. But it is just speculation.

I'm not interested in an EJ return especially a recast. I do understand the writers wanting to get him out of this limbo of being alive but offscreen in poor health since Sami has been returning to Salem frequently. I'd rather have Johnny in Salem rather than EJ.

I might be in the minority here but I think it is high time they recast EJ. He is needed as a core character even if it is a recast. It has been MANY years since he was on and I am more than ready to have him back!

The main issue with an EJ recast is that he was so popular. Look at what just happened with Cady, she's a great actress but fans just did not accept her as Jennifer. It will be worse with EJ. His fans adore him and they love EJami. There's also the problem of chemistry. Will this new actor have chemistry with Alison Sweeny? This could go bad.

I think the return of EJ is good, because he finally is able to have a end with Sami and others things.

I wonder if the new EJ will interact with his brothers Chad and Tony? I wonder if EJ will meet his new brother Jake?
Or will EJ decide to steal DiMera right out from under Jake and regain control of the company and the family?
But if they brought EJ back to break up Ejami, I wonder who they pair EJ up with?
