BREAKING NEWS: Don Diamont Reveals Luna’s Bold and Beautiful Return

Don Diamont Reveals Luna’s Bold and Beautiful Return

Don Diamont and Heather Tom appeared on Michael Fairman’s YouTube Channel to discuss how it would go down if Luna were to return.

To say that Luna really made a mess of things on The Bold and the Beautiful would be an understatement. After killing Tom and Hollis, putting the moves on her dad-turned-not-dad Bill, and trapping Steffy in a cage in a building earmarked for demolition, she was finally sent up the river. But prison doesn’t necessarily mean a character is gone from the show, and Don Diamont and Heather Tom weighed in on the possibilities.

Sweet to Evil

Diamont (Bill) and Heather Tom (Katie) appeared on the Michael Fairman Channel, and Tom announced in addition to acting, she’s also writing and directing on the show. The conversation then turned to Luna’s (Lisa Yamada) villainous and psychotic exploits. Diamont explained that even before he received the script, he was aware that Luna (Lisa Yamada) was going to kiss Bill, and thought it was an excellent concept because no one saw it coming.

“You know, up to that point in the story, she’d been pretty milquetoast, sweet, sweet, everything, puppies and sunshine,” he remarked, adding that it was a great venue for Luna to show off her acting prowess, which she did commendably. “I was so proud of her. She knocked it out of the park.” Tom, perhaps now with a writer’s eye, saw the value in Luna’s change from good to evil, noting, “Oh! This is who she is. This is a character we’ve got to keep around.”

Luna Has Trauma-Based Mental Damage

Diamont watched some of the episodes and found it very interesting that Luna’s mother, Poppy (Romy Park), may have caused trauma in her daughter’s young life when she would constantly have a new boyfriend. Because of that behavior, Diamont thought, “Poppy inflicted some damage (on Luna).”

It was definitely clear by how Luna tore her mother down that severe damage had been done, especially because Poppy concealed the fact that Tom (Clint Howard) was Luna’s dad. But Luna knew about that at a young age with her mother unaware, so the concept conceivably just festered inside the girl’s mind as she grew up.

When asked if Luna would ever return to the show, perhaps to continue her reign of terror, Diamont stated, “I really enjoyed working with her, and I just think there’s story there, but that’s above our pay grade.” Tom chimed in with the same thought and remarked that the show needed a new villain (probably because Sheila’s [Kimberlin Brown] moved to the light side). Her plot premise would be, “Just send her to a psychiatric institution and then bring her back.”
