Stephen Nichols played Tucker McCall on Y&R. When he left the show, he became a cast member of Days of Our Lives and portrayed Steve Johnson. Unfortunately, he left the show due to a contract dispute. Although it is clear that he wants to return to Y&R, General Hospital fans are also rooting for his to reprise the role of Stefan Cassadine. Since GH has not contacted him yet, Nichols is hoping that he could make a comeback at the Young and The Restless.
