Stacy Haiduk is Back on All My Children!

Tomorrow is the day All My Children fans have been waiting for:

Stacy Haiduk will return as Hannah Nichols, Zachary Slater's (Thorsten Kaye) ex-lover. Viewers last saw Haiduk in May, but the 39-year-old actress made it clear at the time to executive producer Julie Hanan Carruthers that she wanted to come back.

I just told her, This is so much fun.I'd love to come back. I have no idea how this works, but...And she said, 'You know, let's see what happens. I'm very blessed that I got 'Hannah comes back! It's pretty awesome," Haiduk told Soap Opera Digest and BuddyTV reported.

Haiduk, known for portraying Lana Lang in the Superboy series, first joined the cast of All My Children in March. While working on the series, she came to enjoy the more flexible work schedule of daytime television.

"Probably in the middle of shooting [my first run], I looked at Thorsten and I said, This is so much fun. You guys are the luckiest people on earth because you get to have a life outside of work as well,'' Haiduk said. In nighttime, you work 14 or 15 hours a day, you come home exhausted, and that's it. Here, you usually work the morning shift or the afternoon shift.
