Casting call: Who is Tyler Douglas?

The Young and the Restless is looking to add a 30something character to its canvas. The African-American character is currently being called Tyler Douglas. But who is he?

The Young and the Restless has issued its first casting notice under the show's new head writer and executive producer.

Y&R is looking to cast the role of Tyler Douglas, who is described as "African American male. Late 20s to early 30s. Orphaned at 16. Worked his way through college and now has an MBA. He's driven to succeed. Smart, energetic. Well-read. Smoothly sexy and confident, with a witty, sometimes cynical sense of humor."

The role is contract. It should be noted that the name used in s casting call are not necessarily the name that a character will have when he or she debuts on-screen. Sometimes a name may change, of the show may deliberatly use an alternate name to prevent anyone from finding out what role they are really looking to fill.

In July, The Young and the Restless nameed Jill Farren Phelps as its new executive producer. Josh Griffith was re-hired as head writer.
