It was a casting call that had both fans of Guiding Light and As The World Turns in a buzz. Could Ben Warren be returning to Springfield? Well, Ben is making a return to town - but it's not the Ben that everyone had thought.
As it turns out, the Ben returning to GL is Ben Reade, the son of Fletcher Reade and Maeve Stoddard. Landing the role of Ben Reade is Matthew Bomer, a relative newcomer to the world of soaps. Bomer previously had a several day stint on All My Children as Ian Kipling, the fiancé of Sarah Livingston, a young sexually confused woman.
Bomer's first airdate has not been announced.
