Christie Clark and Austin Peck are reprising their roles of Carrie and Austin on Days of our Lives. Serial Scoop teased this news on September 12.

Days of our Lives is the gift that keeps on giving for me,” Clark tells Soap Opera Digest. The actress began playing Carrie as a child in 1986 (replacing Andrea Barber in the role), and was last seen in Salem in 2012. “Thirty years of fun, drama and love in the afternoon!!”

Peck replaced Patrick Muldoon in the role of Austin in 1996, and was last seen in 2006.

Look for Austin and Carrie to appear in early 2017 in a story involving Carrie's mother Anna (Leann Hunley).
