THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL Going On Location to Italy Again!
Pack your bags because THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL is returning to Italy! For the first time since the 2012 episodes where Hope married Liam in Puglia, the CBS soap is shooting again in Italy, where B&B remains a huge international hit.
The Hollywood Reporter Roma broke the news that B&B will be shooting for three days between Monday, May 15, through Wednesday, May 17 in locations like the Piazza Navona, Piazza di Spagna, and the Colosseum. While no storyline information is available, the actors heading overseas will include Katherine Kelly Lang (Brooke), Thorsten Kaye (Ridge), Jacqueline MacInnes Wood (Steffy), Annika Noelle (Hope), Scott Clifton (Liam), Matthew Atkinson (Thomas), and Lawrence Saint-Victor (Carter).
With that group, it would seem likely that a Forrester fashion show is being set up in Italy. Also part of these special location episodes will be the Italian actors who provide the foreign-language voices when B&B is dubbed into Italian to air in that country. So keep an eye out for them!
B&B is an international success, and has gone on location to various countries around the world during its 36 years on the air including Monaco, Australia, and of course, Italy. Previously, the soap has shot in Venice, Lake Como, and Portofino, with their most recent visit being back in May 2012 when Puglia provided the backdrop for all the drama surrounding Hope and Liam’s wedding.
Given B&B’s shooting schedule, these episodes in Rome should air sometime in June… in the United States, anyway. Unfortunately for the soap’s Italian fans, they are currently watching storylines from 2022 unfold on their screens and won’t get to see these shows until next year!
