The cat's officially out of the bag: Jordi Vilasuso (ex-Griffin Castillo, All My Children; ex-Tony Santos, Guiding Light) has been cast on DAYS.

You probably already guessed the news based on the teasers that were released last week, but it's now official: actor Jordi Vilasuso (ex-Griffin Castillo, All My Children; ex-Tony Santos, Guiding Light) is heading to Days of our Lives.

Serial Scoop reports that the actor, who won a Daytime Emmy award for his role as GL's Tony in 2003, is heading to Salem for a role that is somehow connected to Galen Gering's Rafe Hernandez. There's no word yet on when the Florida native will debut.
