Life hasn’t stopped after daytime.

As per our readers’ requests Soaps.com has done some digging into the projects and whereabouts of former soap opera actors from “The Bold and the Beautiful,” “Days of our Lives,” “General Hospital” and “The Young and the Restless.”

New primetime and film gigs, a husband and wife team, a stage appearance, fan Q&As and more…

Missing Massimo Marone.
Soaps.com reader JOOZ asked after the actor who played “The Bold and the Beautiful’s” Massimo Marone. Joseph Mascolo was last seen in the 2001 role he created in July 2006. However, fans of the actor can still catch him in daytime as Salem’s Stefano DiMera on “Days of our Lives.” Mascolo first appeared on the NBC soap opera in 1982 then went on to appear as Carlo Alvarez on “Santa Barbara” in 1985 and as Nicholas Van Buren on “General Hospital” in 1989. If you haven’t tuned in to “Days” you may want to watch in order to check out Mascolo’s character, who’s currently grieving the death of his daughter Kristen (Eileen Davidson) and seeking revenge against Marlena (Deidre Hall), the woman he blames.
