The cast of Beyond Salem continues to grow as The Young and the Restless' Eileen Davidson (Ashley Abbott, YR; sometimes-ex-Kristen DiMera, DAYS) and DAYS alum Christopher Sean (Paul Narita) have been added to season two of the Peacock series.

Days of our Lives alums Eileen Davidson and Christopher Sean are headed back to Salem... actually beyond Salem. The fan faves will appear as part of the cast of the second iteration of the Days of our Lives Peacock series Beyond Salem. What's more, they'll be accompanied by Colton Little, Loretta Divine, Tanner Stine, Victoria Grace, and Davidson's real-life husband, Vince Van Patten. They'll join previously announced cast members Kristian Alfonso (ex-Hope Williams Brady); Peter Reckell (ex-Bo Brady); Deidre Hall (Dr. Marlena Evans); Drake Hogestyn (John Black); Steve Burton (Harris Michaels); Stephen Nichols (Steve "Patch" Johnson); Mary Beth Evans (Kayla Brady Johnson); Lucas Adams (Tripp Johnson); Camila Banus (Gabi Hernandez); Victoria Konefal (Ciara Brady); Robert Scott Wilson (Ben Weston), Remington Hoffman (Li Shin), and Abigail Klein (Stephanie Johnson).

The Sun has reported that Stine is set to take over the role of Joey Johnson, previously played by James Lastovic. As Soap Central previously revealed, Klein will play Stephanie, a role last played by Shelly Hennig. Meanwhile, the multi-talented Devine has been cast as Angela, Little will portray Andrew Donovan, and Grace will play Wendy Shin. Van Patten will play the role of Phil Hellworth, and Peacock has so far kept quiet about whether or not he will appear in scenes with Davidson, but he just has to, right?
