Vincent Irizarry Is Excited To Be Reprising One of His Roles

Soap star Vincent Irizarry is returning to one of the many roles he’s played over his career, but unfortunately for daytime fans, it’s not one of his numerous soap characters. “Great day shooting another episode of INSP’s WILD WEST CHRONICLES (now on Peacock),” he announced on Instagram. “Season three, reprising the role of Judge Isaac Parker opposed once again the character Bass Reeves, played wonderfully by Byron P. Jackson as well as Zach Chyz in the role of Marks.”

Irizarry has appeared on numerous daytime soaps during his lengthy career, starting with Lujack and Nick on GUIDING LIGHT, then Scott on SANTA BARBARA, followed by David on ALL MY CHILDREN and another David on THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS, Deimos on DAYS OF OUR LIVES, and most recently, Dr. Jordan Armstrong on THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL. He first announced he was appearing in WILD WEST CHRONICLES back in August 2020 and the episode first aired in April 2021. And now he’s back in the saddle again!

“Some of you may remember that I initially played this character in the series’ first season,” Irizarry said, “in the retelling of the extraordinary story of Bass Reeves, a one-time slave who escaped slavery, then lived with the Cherokee Indians, learning how to track, hunt, and speak their language.

“After the Emancipation Proclamation,” the actor continued, “he returned to live in Arkansas only to become the first black man to become a U.S. Marshal in our nation’s history, deputized by Judge Parker. Mr. Reeves went on to become one of the most successful Marshals of his time throughout his nearly 30-year career. It’s definitely a series worth watching!”

WILD WEST CHRONICLES tells the true stories of the West’s most notorious and infamous events featuring the characters who lived them. Originally on INSP TV, the series is now available to watch on streaming services like Amazon Prime Video, Peacock, and Tubi. So make sure you check it out to see Irizarry back in action again!
