By Chris GirouxOn Mar 12, 2019

The Young and the Restless (Y&R) spoilers reveal that in the near future, J.T. will return to the CBS soap. A few weeks ago, Y&R’s social media pages announced that Thad Luckinbill would reprise the role of J.T. Hellstrom in the coming weeks. If he was filming at that moment, dedicated fans assume Hellstrom will be back in early April. Here’s what you need to know about what’s ahead on Y&R.

Luckinbill said that when he filmed his final scenes, he assumed that was it. He thought it was an ending to J.T,’s arc on Y&R. Thad added that since his character died—or so he thought—he didn’t stay up-to-date with what was going on.

After he was called to return, he decided to check out what has been going on with his storyline. He was surprised it was still such a huge plot, almost a year after his supposed death. He said that the best part of it is how fans have been debating whether J.T. is alive or dead.

Young and the Restless head writer Josh Griffith took control of the storyline several months ago. Thad said that he called him and asked him if he would return and Griffith explained the storyline and what was ahead for J.T.

Luckinbill said his ideas were refreshing and they will throw the fans for a loop. While Thad is a busy man with other projects, he said he will always come back to Y&R as long as it fits in his schedule.

He cannot wait until the Y&R viewers find out if J.T. is alive or dead and all the other drama that follows. When pressed for a few spoilers on what’s ahead, he declined to give any.
