'Days of our Lives' Alum Kevin Spirtas Joins 'Winterthorne' as Dominic Delacort

Kevin Spirtas
Kevin Spirtas has been tapped to play Dominic Delacort in the new online series, Winterthorne. The character is described as a major player within the family. Dominic has been charged by the Winterthorne women to train their husbands and future husbands in the art of making candy. There is a sense of wonder within him alongside a sense of true bitterness for being controlled by them.

"Kevin is a wonderful actor,” says series creator and Emmy nominee Michael Caruso, “And I think what struck me about him as perfect for the part of Dominic is the sense of mischievousness he possesses. Dominic is a character that has been put in a very specific position of power by the Winterthorne women, and yet he's powerless at the same time and we really see him struggle with that."

"Kevin is not only a delightful person, but an incredibly talented actor,” adds series star Martha Madison, “I loved watching him play the devious character of Craig Wesley on Days! He made it fun to root for the bad guy!"

'One Life To Live' Alum John-Paul Lavoisier Joins 'Winterthorne'

John-Paul Lavoisier
Winterthorne sparks are about to fly! John-Paul Lavoisier has been cast as Hugh Cambridge, a handsome and mysterious man from Miranda Wintherthorne's (lead actress Martha Madison) past. Hugh is hell bent on becoming a member of the Winterthorne family and Miranda has severely underestimated his intent to seduce her.

"John-Paul has a great edgy quality that I wanted for the character of Hugh," explains Emmy-nominated Michael Caruso, creator of the series. “John-Paul is fantastic at creating subtle, smoldering layers with his acting that will build into something dangerous within the character.”

Kirsten Storms Joins All-Star 'Winterthorne' Cast

Kirsten Storms
General Hospital Emmy nominee Kirsten Storms is the latest actor to join the all-star cast of Michael Cauruso's highly anticipated drama Winterthorne. She will play Selene Winterthorne, the younger sister of lead character Miranda (Martha Madison), who returns after being absent for many years with an offer to change the candy company empire forever.

"Selene is stylish, sexy, wicked, and witty," says the Emmy-nominated Caruso. "She's been away from her family for a long time and now she's back to take what she feels is hers. It's going to be so much fun watching Kirsten and Martha on screen together, a devilish treat for the audience."

"I adore Kirsten both personally and professionally," adds adison, "And I've always wanted the chance to work on a project together with her. I have so much respect for her as an actress. I can hardly wait for her to join us on
Winterthorne."

Storms numerous TV credits include 7th Heaven, Clubhouse, Xenon: Girl of the 21st Century, Days of our Lives, and CSI: Miami, but is best known as Maxie Jones on the long-running daytime drama General Hospital, a role she has played for nearly 10 years.

Winterthorne begins three weeks of production in late March, both in and outside of the Los Angeles area. Storms joins previously announced cast members Martha Madison (Days of Our Lives), Michael Caruso (DeVanity), Linda Gray (Dallas), Kathleen Gati (General Hospital), Gordon Thomson (Dynasty, Santa Barbara) and Josh Thrower (90210, The Young and The Restless).

"Kathleen Gati is a powerhouse actress who brings a richness and depth to every role she tackles,” says Emmy-nominated series creator Michael Caruso. “She is so much more than a traditional villain. She really embodies all the layers required for a role like this. She is really going to turn up the heat in this role. All of us are dying to work with her."
