The Young and the Restless Spoilers – Eric Braeden Is Reported To Be On Set This Week
Our source is telling us that Braeden has been tapped to return to work this Thursday. The word is that for now, the older actors will film scenes apart from the rest of the cast. The cast is returning to work following a four-month hiatus that was prompted by the coronavirus pandemic.
In mid-March film and television production across the globe came to a screeching halt as the world confronted the deathly reality of COVID-19. Filming was halted as a precautionary measure against the spread of the virus and global productions are slowly beginning to restart.
Y&R spoilers – Will Taping Begin This Week As Reported?
Due to his age, Braeden is in what is considered a high-risk group for contracting the virus. Which is why he will not shoot scenes with the rest on his onscreen family when they reportedly come back to the set tomorrow.
Most film productions have mandated that mature actors take special precautions so it is not causing alarm that Braeden is filming separately. The British soap Coronation Street returned to filming this month but without any plans to have its older actors on set. One of its veteran actors, Bill Roache, has predicted that it won’t be until fall that the mature members of the cast are allowed back in the studio.

Thus it’s great news that Braeden will be filming as the alternative could possibly have been a long wait to return to the set. If Y&R films tomorrow as predicted, it will have the honor of being the second American soap to return to work. It’s sister soap, The Bold and the Beautiful got busy back in June and is anticipated to air fresh material on Monday, July 20.
