The future of The Young and the Restless' Adam has been up in the air since news came this May that NBC was picking up the primetime series This Is Us, starring portrayer Justin Hartley in a plum role. Now that the actor has officially departed Genoa City, the obvious thing fans have been buzzing about is whether or not the CBS soap will recast the beloved character once more.
While no official word has come from the powers that be at Y&R, Melissa Claire Egan (Chelsea Newman) shares that she's doubtful her on-screen love will be recast.
While some fans might be crushed to hear Egan's opinion, others are no doubt relieved simply because the "Adam returns" story has already been told. As viewers of the show likely recall, Michael Muhney's departure from the role in 2014 led to a story in which presumed-dead Adam returned nine months later -- played by Justin Hartley -- with a new face that came after a horrendous car accident.
