She’ll portray the role of Audrey, the leading lady, in the film called “Holiday For Heroes.” Hallmark Channel teased the film’s plot by posing a question, “Is true love in-store when pen pals meet in person?” The movie is scheduled to air on November 8 as part of Hallmark’s “Miracle of Christmas” programming slate.

First Sergeant Evans will be portrayed by Marc Blucas. Patti Murin, who’s known for her recurring role in “Chicago Med,” is also among the cast members. “Holiday For Heroes” is Egan’s first project with the Hallmark Channel.

Melissa Claire Egan’s Role As Chelsea Lawson on Y&R
Egan recently reprised her role as Chelsea Lawson on “The Young and the Restless.” She started taping her scenes back in May and has returned to the canvass in the early summer. Her excellent portrayal of her character has landed her several nominations including two Daytime Emmy nominations for Best Supporting Actress in 2013 and 2014. Prior to that, she also played Annie Lavery on “All My Children.” Again, she did a great job as she was a three-time Best Supporting Actress nominee for playing her role. Egan has yet to bring home the trophy. Perhaps her reappearance on “the Young and the Restless” give her enough juicy material for her to finally win in 2020.

If Victor does not return I will not continue to watch.
Yes l will b watching it will b a repeat of Chloe faking her death yadda yada yada .Victor Newman is not dead he is one of the leading characters on the Y&R .Mr Ruthless cannot be dead.How come no one knows CPR usually when someone doesn’t have a pulse its automatic to give CPR and no one went in the ambulance if Victor was really dead the coroner would have to come etc.So let’s see how this played out should b interesting
These writers have really had me seriously considering to stop watching the show. The stories are mostly old rehashed which had more than run their course previously, the Delia story being the most tedious and boring of the lot. However I can’t help but hope the show will fire these useless writers and bring in some that can once again create interesting and fresh new stories for us fans
