UPDATED: Larry Bryggman Back on ATWT Before The End

Roger Newcomb May 22, 2010
Emmy Award-winning soap legend Larry Bryggman will be reprising his role as John Dixon on AS THE WORLD TURNS for multiple episodes (around 10) before the show goes off the air in September.

Brygmann started on ATWT in 1969 and played the role of John for 35 years before the character unceremoniously disappeared. John's rivalry with Bob, his marriage to Kim (which included a controversial marital rape), and the infamous hot tub scene with Lucinda are just a few of the many highlights during his run. Those three relationships and many more will hopefully be touched upon as John makes his way back to Oakdale.

Also returning before the end are Cady McClain, Mary Beth Evans, Sarah Glendening, Jennifer Landon and Jesse Lee Soffer (both back July 9), Kristina Romero, Anthony Herrera and Terri Garber. Hopefully others will be announced soon.
