Actress, icon, and advocate Deidre Hall (Marlena Evans Black, Days of our Lives) is having an absolute blast now that’s back in the skin of her prim and proper alter-ego’s dopey doppelgänger — and Hattie’s burgeoning friendship with Greg Rikaart’s Leo is a thrilling bonus!
Deidre Hall On Hattie and Hattie and Leo
“I love Hattie,” Hall gushed to Soap Opera Digest. “I love playing her because it’s such a break from — I’m trying to search for the right words — the appropriate, competent, predictable part of Marlena gets flung aside, and here comes Hattie. So I get to do all the things that I would never ever consider doing as Marlena because they would be too disturbing.”
As for her new, recurrent scene partner: “I adore [Greg[. I absolutely adore him. In fact, we had lunch a couple of times before we started our storyline together just to sit down and talk about it, get to know each other and carve out a separate relationship. We were both very excited to be playing together. So we started early. We met up early.”
And there’s more shenanigans to come for the pair. Teases Hall: “It’s so delicious. And, of course, the more Hattie flirts with him, the more appalled he is. The joy about working with Greg is that he’s so naturally hilarious, and he finds any sort of joke in any sort of moment.”
