Watch Out, Hope!

Could THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL’s Hope be getting yet another rival in the love department? The show has issued a casting notice for a 22-year-old leading young lady to play a refined, outspoken and spunky Ivy League graduate. The description also says that the character comes from money and was raised on the East Coast. Might this newcomer be related to a family already on the canvas?

The contract role is due to start taping in early February.
