The Young and the Restless fan-favorite Lucas Adams may have just packed his bags as Noah Newman to trade life in Genoa City for Los Angeles, but he already has an exciting new project lined up for his fans. The actor, who made his exit from the CBS daytime drama just last week, is set to guest star in season two of ABC’s crime drama RJ Decker, playing a character named Liam Jansen.
RJ Decker stars Scott Speedman as a discredited ex-con newspaper photographer who starts over as a private investigator in South Florida. After debuting earlier this year, the series was picked up for a second season, which is slated to premiere on September 15.
Key Takeaways

From Genoa City to South Florida—and a Secret Project!
On the show, Noah told his mom, Sharon, that he and his new girlfriend Sienna were moving back to L.A. to get away from Matt Clark, though he made sure to point out that they aren’t leaving forever. Before hitting the road, Noah handed over his business, The Shadow Room, to returning fan-favorite Danny Romalotti (Michael Damian).
This is definitely not Lucas’ first rodeo in primetime. Over the years, he’s racked up credits on hit shows like Grimm, True Blood, Dexter, and School of Rock. Daytime fans also know him well for his two-time Daytime Emmy-nominated run as Dr. Tripp Dalton Johnson on Days of Our Lives from 2017 to 2024.
On top of joining RJ Decker, Lucas has even more good news brewing under wraps! His agency recently shared a post on Instagram revealing that he has a “REALLY COOL, REALLY NEAT, REALLY SECRETIVE PROJECT” keeping him busy this month, and they can’t wait to share what it is.
Huge congratulations to Lucas on the new gig!
