Days of Our Lives (DOOL) spoilers and casting news tease that some big exits are coming up on the NBC soap. Vincent Irizarry’s last airdate as Deimos is rapidly approaching. It sounds like Deimos could bite the dust after taking a revenge scheme too far. His demise should kick off the hot murder mystery we’ve all been waiting for.
However, Deimos isn’t the only Salemite on his way out. DOOL fans can expect other departures in the coming months. Arianne Zucker’s last episode as Nicole should air by end of the year, but other Days cast members will be leaving sooner. The show needs to clear out a few characters to make room for returning ones.
There’s been no official confirmation on James Lastovic’s exit, but he may be out as Joey. In a now deleted tweet, Lastovic’s mother hinted that Days decided not to renew her son’s contract. It’s possible that Lastovic could be kept on recurring, but writing him out seems more likely. The storyline appears to be headed in that direction.
Since Tripp (Lucas Adams) is plotting against Kayla (Mary Beth Evans), Joey will probably confess to Ava’s (Tamara Braun) murder at some point. He could head to prison for killing Tripp’s mother. Jade (Gabrielle Haugh) could easily be out as well.
After Paige Searcy left the role, many Days of Our Lives fans wondered why the show even bothered to recast. Jade seemed like the kind of teen love interest who would just fade away. There’s a good chance they let Jade stick around for the revelation of Joey’s secret. Once she’s served her purpose, she could leave town.
Jade’s exit would limit Tripp’s romantic options, but he could always get involved in a love triangle with Claire (Olivia Rose Keegan) and Theo (Kyler Pettis). Even Tripp himself could exit Salem eventually. It just depends on Ron Carlivati’s vision as DOOL’s new head writer.
It also looks like Dario’s (Jordi Vilasuso) departure is looming. He’s currently lying to Abigail (Marci Miller) about what he needs to take care of a deportation threat. Once Dario’s plan inevitably fails, he might be sent out of the country. Dario could’ve just filed some paperwork, but he may mess up that possibility with this marriage ruse.
If not, Dario could simply leave Salem in shame. Whatever the case, his sendoff should be coming down the road. There could be other surprise exits, too.
