For those you who aren’t ready to get to the bottom of the disappearance of John Black (Drake Hogestyn), either are we, because we know that eventually this will lead to the death of the character, and Marlena (Deidre Hall) becoming a widow. All this, after DAYS beloved Drake Hogestyn gave series executive producer, Ken Corday, the OK to kill off his character when he knew he would not be returning to the role that made him soap-famous.
As DAYS viewers know, Hogestyn lost his battle with pancreatic cancer back on September 28, 2024, and his death has rocked the show and it scast to the core. There were initial hopes that Drake would be able to come back to the role he loved so much to play, but it just wasn’t the hand he was dealt, sadly and unfortunately.
Now, in the latest promo for the action on Days of our Lives for episodes streaming on Peacock the week of March 24-28, the search for John continues and Steve (Stephen Nichols) gets some intel form none other than Andrew Donovan (Colton Little), who is also hiding something from his man and John’s son, Paul Narita (Christopher Sean).

Andrew tells John, “I’ve been lying to Paul. I know more about John’s mission than I’ve led on.” The upshot of which leaves Steve reeling. What does Andrew tell John’s best friend? Meanwhile, Marlena is with Paul. What will happen when she learns her husband’s whereabout?
Elsewhere in Salem, Javi (Al Calderon) and Leo (Greg Rikaart) look to be getting closer, but will Leo betray Javi and break his heart? Alex (Rob Scott Wilson) goes after Phillip (John-Paul Lavoisier) over Stephanie (Abigail Klein), and Julie (Susan Seaforth Hayes) is about to learn that it was Doug Williams III (Peyton Meyer), that stole Alice Horton’s necklace after Tate (Leo Howard) rats him out, much to the chagrin of Holly (Ashley Puzemis).
