Kurtains for Matt Reardon

Kurtains for Matt Reardon

For the past several months, Guiding Light fans have wondered about the fate of Kurt McKinney (Matt Reardon). Now, the speculation can come to and end: the actor has been let go.

It had been rumored back in July that McKinney's fate with Guiding Light had almost certainly been sealed. Reports out of All My Children said that the actor was being heavily considered for the part of Jake Martin. That fell through, reportedly because the actor had yet to be given a definitive decision about his contract renewal with the CBS soap.

According to inside sources with the show, McKinney's last airdate will come later this month when Matt leaves town on business.
