Blast From The Past Returns!
So, who is Mamie’s secret partner? The speculation is running rampant, with an intriguing theory gaining momentum. Could it be the return of a fan-favorite character thought to be lost forever? For more than a decade, viewers having be missing the absence of Drucilla Winters, portrayed by the talented Victoria Rowell until her character’s mysterious disappearance in 2007. Now, The Young And The Restless rumors suggest that Drucilla might be making a grand comeback as Mamie’s partner-in-crime.
When Victoria first graced our screen, viewers couldn’t stop but appreciate her exceptional performance. Bringing her back to her roots after such a long absence seems like the perfect choice, one that fans would undoubtedly celebrate. Victoria Rowell played the character from 1990 to 2007, and viewers really want her to come back. However, the path to Drucilla’s return might not be without its challenges. In 2015, she filed a lawsuit against CBS and the producers of the soap, for racial discrimination and retaliation. But the case was later dropped.
Despite legal battles in the past, The Young And The Restless actress expressed hope in 2020. She mentioned to Soaps.com that CBS and its parent company’s efforts for diversity gave her hope. She said, “I am very encouraged that I may get a call again from Viacom/CBS. I see opportunity happening. I hope this opportunity won’t be just a media moment; I hope that it will be sustainable in its systemic change, and I look forward to more calls from CBS.” Could this be the moment fans have been waiting for?
The Young And The Restless: Who Will Wear Drucilla’s Crown?
But if not Victoria, then who could possibly fill Drucilla’s iconic shoes? Recasting such a beloved character is no easy feat. Remember the unfortunate fallout when the show attempted to recast Shemar Moore as Malcolm? So finding an actor as talented as Victoria for the role is a big challenge. However, fans seems to have few options to consider. Some interesting names has come up into the mix as potential replacements, such as Debbi Morgan, the Emmy-winning star of All My Children, or Nia Long, a familiar face from Guiding Light. Crystal R. Fox, known for her compelling performance in Tyler Perry’s The Haves and the Have Nots, is also a fan favorite for the role.
But we have to keep in mind that stepping into the shoes of an iconic character like Drucilla would undoubtedly pose a major challenge.
