Days of Our Lives (DOOL) spoilers tease that Arianne Zucker (Nicole) will remain at the NBC soap for a little longer than anticipated, but she’s still on her way out soon. According to Jason47’s Days Website, Zucker’s contract has been extended slightly. She was originally set to exit the role of Nicole at the conclusion of April, but now she’ll be taping through late June.
That should put Zucker’s final airdate around the end of 2017. There’s no word yet on how Nicole will be written out, but it never hurts to consider the possibilities. Right now, Nicole is facing total terror in Greece. She’s being held hostage by Xander (Paul Telfer) and it’s a tale she knows all too well.
Nicole always ends up in tricky situations like this. She’s been kidnapped plenty of times over the years. Obviously, she’s even done some kidnapping herself! Days of Our Lives fans will recall that Nicole has also escaped death on more than one occasion. Will Nicole’s lucky streak come to an end down the road?
It would be tough for viewers to accept a recast of this particular character. Zucker debuted as Nicole nearly two decades ago, so it’s hard to imagine anyone taking her place. It sounds like Zucker simply stuck around to wrap up her exit story. DOOL probably wanted to make sure they had enough time to give Nicole a proper send-off.
Nicole doesn’t have any family members on canvas, so there’s nothing to keep her in Salem. She’s fallen in love with Brady (Eric Martsolf) again, but their romance never seems to last. If she finds a way to get custody, Nicole might decide to leave town with her daughter.
However, we should prepare for the possibility that Nicole could be killed off. Sometimes Days of Our Lives likes to throw in a huge shocker. It would be heartbreaking if poor Holly was orphaned. She already lost her father in a tragic car accident. Daniel’s (Shawn Christian) life was cut short that fateful New Year’s Eve. Will Nicole meet an early demise, too?
Chloe (Nadia Bjorlin) might get a chance to raise Holly after all. Nicole’s exit is still pretty far away, so it’s difficult to say anything with certainty just yet.
