Arianne Zucker pops back into DAYS as Nicole.
Soap Opera Digest: When did you get the call to come back and how did you react?
Arianne Zucker: It was the beginning of the year, and when they asked if I’d come back, I was like, “I’m not ready yet!” Then they said, “Will you come back for a story arc?” So I said yes because it wasn’t going to be a long-term thing, which I thought was really fun, because it was just perfect timing with everything that I was shooting — and then shooting in April with summer coming up and [daughter] Izzy getting out of school, it all just worked out great. I’m always happy to work there, for sure.
Digest: Were you nervous?
Zucker: Well, I wasn’t nervous, I guess maybe nervous/ excited. It’s like seeing your family that you haven’t seen for a long time. It’s like getting off an airplane and everyone’s like, “Oh, my God! It’s so great that you’re back.” But then it’s also like you never missed a step.
Digest: Did it feel like you had just been there?
