But Fans Will Have to Wait
Conner Floyd Joins Days Of Our Lives As The New Chad DiMera
Days of Our Lives fans are in for a major casting shake-up next year. According to Deadline, The Young and the Restless star Conner Floyd, best known for his role as Chance Chancellor, has been tapped to take over the role of Chad DiMera on Days of Our Lives.
This announcement follows the earlier news this year that Billy Flynn, who has portrayed Chad since 2014, would be exiting the series after an impressive 11-year run.
Interestingly, Conner Floyd only recently made his Y&R debut as Aristotle Dumas, a.k.a. Cane Ashby, on June 19th — a surprising twist in itself, as the role appears to be a reimagining of a fan-favorite character. But Floyd's time in Genoa City may be short-lived.
He is set to begin filming at Days on June 23rd, but due to the soap’s famously advanced taping schedule, fans shouldn’t expect to see his version of Chad on-screen until April 2026.
This long lead time gives viewers time to prepare for the transition and plenty of time to speculate on what changes Floyd might bring to the legacy role.
