Similar to a situation that went down a few years ago, the future of the soap opera itself was also in jeopardy last year, as it wasn’t clear whether or not it would continue after cast members’ contracts were cancelled.
It’s unclear whether or not Judi Evans will be returning to Days of Our Lives as Adrienne Johnson Kiriakis in the future.
It did get a renewal for Season 56, but stay tuned to see how long that streak will continue.
After months of speculation fueled by a flash-forward sequence revealing Adrienne’s death, her character was fully killed off back in January as the result of another character’s drunk driving.
