The Bold and the Beautiful has issued a casting call for a role that will be sure to have the Internet buzzing. The show is casting the role of Alexandra Forrester.

For the role of Alexandra, the show is looking for a 19- to 21-year-old Caucasian actress. The character is described as "Beautiful. Well bred. Very upscale."

So who is this new character? There has never been a previous mention of an "Alexandra" Forrester, but long-time fans will know that Thorne Forrester and his late wife, Darla, have a daughter named Alexandria. Alexandria was born on-screen in 2004, which would only make the character nine in real life. However, consider that Hope was born on-screen in 2002 and has been "aged" so that she is now out of high school.

Could the two roles be one and the same -- or is Alexandra an entirely new character? Only time will tell, but you can share your thoughts in the Comments section below.
