They usually dont give out the real name of the character in the casting calls. That is why "santo" is in quotation marks. |

That's true, but the "Italian" thing still points to something DiMera. |

Yep, this has to be the real EJ. As Drew said, there is no need to cast for a Santo flashback because they could've just used James Scott. This is likely the real EJ. |

Damn! I almost threw up when I thought they were going to drag out a shitty Santo storyline again. I would respect them a little bit for being smart enough to cast a new actor instead of using James Scott with that ridiculous mustache. So embarrassing. I'm slightly/majorly disappointed that the real EJ is only going to be around for two episodes, but maybe he will just be dying in a bed somewhere. Or maybe he'll be hanging out with Susan living happily ever after. (Doubt that because I'm sure Stefano watches her) I thought there was so much potential for bringing the real Elvis to Salem, but I guess that dream is over. |

A little off-topic, but stunning avatar, JamaicanBeauty! I think the jury is out -- for me, anyway -- on Kate and Stefano, but they look great together in your pic. |

This EJ is the real Elvis, I will not accept another. I don't care what these writers do to try and change that. |

I doubt we have to worry much. If there's a "real" EJ out there somewhere, all that matters to viewers, I think, is that we know James Scott as EJ. They might reveal a "real" EJ, but can we really expect that guy to last long on the show? Viewers are spoiled now. And the cast would have been bloated, as it was. I can see a "swamp guy" sort of storyline, lol, where we see the real EJ (like with Greta before him), but like Greta, the "real" EJ probably would exit the show just as quickly as he entered the picture. |

Very interesting! So Santo is making a brief appearance for May Sweeps, eh? Interesting that they clearly want an actor who resembles James, and yet they aren't just going to use James - suggests perhaps EJ will encounter his grandfather in a dream sequence type of situation. Personally I loved the Santeen S/L - it was very romantic in an old movie sort of way, and having EJ and Sami reading the letters was wonderful. Based on current S/L trajectories, by May EJole should have joined Safe in the dustbin of dead couples, and we know they are filming a lot of EJami scenes now, so it makes sense that as part of EJami getting back together, that the whole Santeen history would come up again. Especially if as I suspect EJ will turn out to be a Dimera through John rather than Stefano - in which case they are going to have to explain how Colleen isn't actually Shawn Brady's blood sister, since I see no way conservative Kenny is going to allow an active couple with two kids to be that closely related. Santo may be back in part for that reason as well... I think things are finally going to get good this spring! |

this can only mean 1 thing...Stefano was adopted and was taught the DeMira way I bet he couldn't have children they adopted stefano so he is not a DeMira |

It will likely be a casting call for the real EJ. The name is just likely something they picked so they wouldn't give out information on the storyline. Maybe this EJ is just a kid that Susan snatched and passed off to Stefano so he'd leave them alone? |

Another thought: wasn't there a spoiler about a murder mystery or was that speculation? The casting call specifies someone over 6' so I wonder if they will cast a guy who resembles James and someone will try to murder "EJ" but kill the wrong man? |

Color me surprised! The age is 30-35, but it could be a dream sequence with this person being a young Santo??? Or, it could be the real EJ. I'm really curious and looking forward to what this means for EJ, Stefano and the rest of the DiMera family. I was one that loved the Santeen story-it has been one of the few short story arcs I've enjoyed since I started watching again in 2007. As another poster said, it reminded me of the old time romance in movies. I have read that Stefano bursts into tears when he reads the contents of the his envelope. I can't think of anything that would get that reaction from Stefano other than EJ not being his son, or him not being Santo's biological son. I'm not sure how I feel about EJ not being Stefano's son-I have a love/hate thing going for their relationship. ETA-It would depend on how they write the story and how if affects EJ.

ANOTHER dream? And where did the "as part of ejami getting back together" come from? LMAO at the requirement for an "AUTHENIC" Italian accent. Santaleenie was so laughably bad, and the only incredible thing about Shirley Jones scenes or the entire horrible story was RoboJohn slamming Marlena's head into the wall. |

I'm kind of hoping that it is Santo, and we find out that Stefano's been lying about A LOT. |
