Trouble continues for the citizens of Genoa City as two baddies wreak lots of havoc. Here’s the latest comings and goings casting news from The Young and the Restless.

Find which performers are returning to the show, if any newcomers are boarding in contract, recurring, or day-player roles, and if any of your favorite actors or actresses are exiting the CBS drama.

The Week of March 30, 2026

Roger Howarth is finally back as the villainous Matt Clark. The character, who last appeared in January, returned to the Genoa City scene in October 2025. He closes in on Nick (Joshua Morrow) on Thursday, April 2.

Christel Khalil has returned from her maternity leave after giving birth to her third child. (She announced the new addition to her family with a powerhouse post.) The actress made her first appearance on March 26.

Stacy Haiduk continues her short-term run as Patty Williams. Look for her character to taunt Peter Bergman’s Jack next week.

Melissa Ordway pops in as Abby Newman Winters. She shares scenes with Bryton James’ Devon on Tuesday, March 31, when their characters receive upsetting news about their son, Dominic (Ethan Ray Clark).

Ordway recently spoke out about the soap reigniting Abby’s rivalry with Mariah.

Cait Fairbanks continues to get prominent airtime as Tessa Porter. She has an emotional conversation with Camryn Grimes’s Mariah on Tuesday, March 31, and appears again on Wednesday, April 1.

Michael Damian reappears as Danny Romalotti in scenes with Michael Graziadei’s Daniel and Porter’s Tessa on Wednesday, April 1. Look for Danny to present the duo with an exciting opportunity.

That could be a chance to record the song they wrote together or some other collaboration that could be uncomfortable due to Tessa’s marriage fix-it attempt.

In Las Vegas, Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) may be surprised by how easy it is for him to slip back into his old life as “Spider.”

We’ll see Adam take part in some high-stakes games and try to pry information out of Riza Thomson (Tina Casciani).

Matt Clark (Roger Howarth) will be busy going after Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow), who may crash out with scary consequences once he buys more drugs.

Back in Genoa City, Victor will keep a vengeful promise, so Cane may be on the receiving end of more trouble.

Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle) will also spar with Phyllis, who’ll receive Summer Newman’s (last played by Allison Lanier) letter with all the horrible things she’s thinking about her mother.

Over with Kyle Abbott (Michael Mealor) and Diane Jenkins Abbott (Susan Walters), they’ll team up for a grilling session.

It won’t be long until Victoria gets pressed for information that Diane and Kyle can perhaps use against Victor.

Meanwhile, Nikki will persuade Jack to do something, so he may divulge the rest of the yacht story.

If Nikki finds out Patty Williams (Stacy Haiduk) was the mystery woman Victor hinted at, she’ll be even more appalled over his destructive manipulation.

Regardless, Nikki will strengthen her commitment to getting back at Victor, so she’ll toss some ideas around with Jack soon.

At the park café, it looks like Sharon Newman (Sharon Case) will fret over the danger Nick’s in.

Phyllis will spy Sharon in a vulnerable moment and step up to offer comfort if she can.

Finally, Sienna Bacall (Tamara Braun) may feel a bit uneasy at the sight of Noah Newman (Lucas Adams) and Audra Charles (Zuleyka Silver) reconnecting.

Will Sienna try to mark her territory or find herself feeling uncertain of her future with Noah due to his ex?

The Young and the Restless spoilers say Sienna will have a lot to mull over, so stay tuned.
