Khalil is now in Philadelphia to film a new film called “We Need to Talk.” The project, starring James Maslow and Emily Bett Rickards, is a comedy film, which Khalil is excited to do because she has not this genre before. “I’m really excited to be able to flex that muscle a little bit,” she told Soaps.com in an interview.
Khalil plays a girlfriend of a YouTube gamer, who tells him before she left for work that they need to talk. The boyfriend spent the whole day thinking about what she’s going to tell him.
“He goes into this tailspin for the day worrying about what I want to talk to him about. Am I breaking up with him? Am I pregnant or do I have an STD?” Khalil teased.
Meanwhile, Khalil confessed that not being in contract and having a stable job is kind of scary, but at the same time, it gives her flexibility. “I do have more freedom. I own my own time,” she said. “I’m able to do what I want when I want, which obviously is great.”
Going back to what happened to Lily on Y&R, Khalil thinks that Lily’s decision to divorce Cane Ashby (Daniel Goddard) was right. Lily was locked up in prison, away from her family, and with the infidelities in their relationship, Khalil believes the divorce made sense.

Now, Y&R are bring Cane and Traci Abbott (Beth Maitland) closer to each other, and Khalil is all for it. “I actually love it. I think it’s great,” she said, suggesting that we should not be weirded out by a woman being older than the guy.
“They’re actually closer in age than Daniel and I were,” she said. “It’s funny how when it’s an older man, we don’t think anything of it. When it’s an older woman, we are so weirded out by it.”
Meanwhile, there’s a possibility that Khalil will return to Y&R sometime in the near future as Iris, a character in the novel that Traci is writing. “It’s been nice to play a different character,” she said.
We’ll keep you posted on when Lily or Iris might be appearing on “The Young and the Restless”!
