"I thought they were throwing me in for another episode and then they offered the contract and I was shocked," Porte told Soap Opera Digest.
"I always wanted to come back because I think it is the closest to live theater that we have on this coast, and that’s where I got my start.
"I was shocked and so excited. I’m very excited for the viewers just to see how many twists the storyline of Dimitri von Leuschner goes through in a very short amount of time.
"The speed at which you are thrust into the pool and expected to perform is intoxicating and it’s nerve-racking.
"Without giving away too much, I will say this...I was walking into this clueless because there’s a hard pivot and we introduced who this character really is for three pages of dialogue."
Who is Dimitri on DAYS?
On DAYS: BS, Dimitri Von Leuschner initially went under the guise of ISA agent Kyle Graham.
As the spinoff's first season concluded, it was revealed Agent Graham was actually Carly Manning and Frankie Brady's cousin Dimitri.
After his plan to extort multiple countries by using a stolen and much-sought-after relic was thwarted, he was taken into police custody.
Dimitri returned during the show's 58th season; he surprised Chad DiMera and Steve Johnson when he revealed he was the one who kidnapped Kate Roberts.
