Chandler Massey confirms romance between Will and Sonny is ahead on “Days of Our Lives”

I picked up a copy of Frontiers magazine in West Hollywood yesterday (I am now a regular contributing writer) and was tickled to see Days of Our Lives star Chandler Massey on the cover.

The Emmy winning actor sheds some light on two of Will Horton’s key relationships on the show with Sonny (Freddie Smith) and EJ (James Scott).

Here’s an excerpt from Michael Fairman’s article: Now that Will has come out, the next step is to find romance, of course! After testing the waters, Chandler indicates that this summer and into the fall, fans can expect Will and Sonny to become much closer. “It looks that way. I think it’s going to be something that hopefully the viewers have wanted to see. If I could give them that, that would be great. I am outspoken about how much I like the platonic friendship of Will and Sonny because I thought it was fresh. Regardless of how I feel about that, I am still going to play that to the best of my ability.”

The other onscreen duo that has been tantalizing viewers is the twisted relationship between the dashing EJ (James Scott) and Will, where many have joked it’s more like … master/slave! Chandler reveals it may not be continuing. “All good things have to come to an end. I can’t help but hold back a smile, and sometimes I don’t when I work with James. I think it’s hands-down my favorite relationship that Will has. When James is in a scene, his focus is on you. That is how people are in real life; they want to get something from you. How many people aren’t afraid to do whatever it takes to do what they want? That is what makes EJ so attractive to Will. I also like Will edgier, too. It is more fun to play.”
