Days of Our Lives spoilers reveal Steve Burton gave fans a pleasant surprise when he joined the cast of Beyond Salem as Harris Michaels. The actor had a big following of General Hospital fans who loved Burton as Jason Morgan and were sorry to see him get let go over the vaccine mandate. So, many were thrilled to see him taking on a new challenge. Now, we’ve learned more about his future on screen. Here’s what you need to know.
Days of Our Lives spoilers: About Beyond Salem
First, let’s give a little background for those who haven’t followed the spin-off series. Beyond Salem is a spin-off that’s had two seasons so far. Each lasted a week and followed some of fans’ favorite characters on adventures outside of Salem. It’s a fun watch that we highly recommend seeing if you haven’t already. It brings a lot of old-school vibes in the feel of the production, as well as the opening segment.
Besides that, it also brings back characters from the past. In season two, we saw Burton reprise a role he played for a short time in the late ‘80s, although he didn’t take it that way. In numerous interviews, the actor spoke of approaching this as a new character since he’d been on DOOL such a short time so long ago. Either way, we both enjoyed the return and were slightly disappointed in it.
Days of Our Lives spoilers: The problem
The thing that we found problematic was, Burton was portrayed as being a bad guy and the actor himself even alluded to being asked if he was okay with that type of role. In the end, though, it seems Harris was more a victim of brainwashing than being a true villain. Plus, the limited amount of episodes didn’t do much for the situation. They didn’t have time to really develop Harris. But that looks to be changing.
Days of Our Lives spoilers: Back to Salem
Recently, the PTB shared a new Winter Promo. Days of Our Lives spoilers reveal Harris is featured, and that’s not all! It seems Hope Brady (Kristian Alfonso) was able to work through the whole plotting against her thing, because she and Harris are caught kissing by Ciara Brady (Victoria Konefal). Since he’s coming to the main show now, we’re hopeful there will be more time to let the character develop and see what Burton can do with him. In write-ups about his joining DOOL, they hint there’s a lot of romance, adventure, and mystery ahead with Harris’ return. And we can’t wait! While there was no date given for his return, one can expect it’ll be late this year/early next year.
