According to Entertainment Weekly, the star's character Malcolm Winters will return to the show later this year but will be played by a different actor.
"We are thrilled to have the character of Malcolm back," said the drama's co-executive producer and head writer Maria Bell.
"[He] has always been a catalyst to exciting stories. He's coming back to town to see his brother and to reunite with his biological daughter Lily Winters as she fights for her life. Malcolm is a photographer… someone who lives on the edge and who always pushes the envelope."
