While his release from Days of Our Lives earlier this year was a shock to fans, Brandon Beemer wasted no time signing on for another role.

He began on The Bold and the Beautiful a few weeks ago and recently chatted with Soap Opera Weekly about the role:

Weekly: Does Owen have real feelings for Donna?
Beemer: Yeah, he's definitely into her. Seeing her with everybody against her and the Forresters saying that she's this, this and this, Owen has had a chance to get to know her a little bit. What he has gotten to know, he really likes. It wasn't what he was expecting.

Weekly: What about Felicia? Is she a romantic option at all?
Beemer: I don’t know. I don't want to get in trouble [by saying anything]!

Weekly: And a lot of emotional stuff riding on the line for Owen...
Beemer: ...which he wasn't expecting.

Weekly: He just came to town to shake down Marcus.
Beemer: Yeah. He was curious: "What is it with these Forresters? What's going on? I want to go check this out."
