‘Days Of Our Lives’ Spoilers: The Legendary Dick Van Dyke Is Joining The Show As MYSTERY Man
Theories suggest that Dr. Marlena Evans (Deidre Hall) could be the one that helps him as she is trained in hypnosis and other ways of bringing the truth and memories back to the surface.
While Van Dyke’s character may accept the help, it seems like he may be a bit of a difficult patient. Marlena will struggle to reach through to him and it will leave him frustrated.
He may need to recall something in particular that means life or death or something that could help bring the man closure. Either way, Marlena is going to need some help and may turn to her husband for assistance.
Amnesia was a big part of John Black’s (Drake Hogestyn) story, so he may be able to help on a more personal and understanding level.
Of course, Van Dyke is beloved and has decades of roles and memorable movies under his belt. There is no doubt that he is going to put 100% into this role and the 97-year-old hasn’t lost a step in his age. We look forward to seeing him on the show!
