Since 2007, Billy Miller has been portraying bad boy Richie Novak on All My Children. Now, he's ready to make his mark on yet another soap. According to Soaps.com, the 28-year-old actor will soon be heading to The Young and the Restless to play the often recast Billy Abbott.
The son of diva Jill Abbott (Jess Walton) and deceased John Abbott (Jerry Douglas), Billy Abbot was first played by David Tom in 1999. For his portrayal of the role, Tom won an Emmy Award in 2000. When Tom decided to leave The Young and Restless in 2002, Ryan Brown took over the character, though he only stayed until 2003. Then Scott Seymour was cast as the third actor to portray Billy Abbot but he only lingered on the series for a few months during the end of 2006.
