The Bold and the Beautiful Spoilers: Akbar Gbajabiamila Opens Up About His New Role

The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers say that Akbar Gbajabiamila will hopefully become more than just a recurring character on the hit CBS soap. At least that’s what fans are hoping for! Here’s what Akbar has to say about the new guy in town, Max. Keep reading below for everything you need to know!

The Bold and the Beautiful Spoilers: Akbar Gbajabiamila Opens Up About His New Role

Speaking to TV Insider in a new interview, Akbar did give a little bit of a hint as far as what’s in store for his character Max. He told the site, “I’m not sure I’m at liberty to say but I will say I got a chance to reconnect with Thorsten. It was pretty cool to be back there. Both Lawrence [Saint-Victor, who plays Carter] and Thorsten were extremely helpful and calmed my nerves. I wanted to make sure I did a good job.”

Akbar also made it no secret that he’s long been a fan of the daytime television world. When asked how long he’s been watching soaps, Akbar said, “I started in elementary school and grew up a big fan of soaps. When I got to college and started playing football, I didn’t watch as often. But somebody [at CBS or B&B] got wind of it being my dream to be on a soap. Before I knew it, I had an offer! I was so nervous coming on. I was walking into their space. This was the holy grail for me when it comes to dramatic television. I didn’t want to mess it up. I was nervous. The whole time I was on set I was thinking, “This is the wildest thing ever!”

The Bold and the Beautiful Spoilers: What’s Next For Max?

Akbar was also asked a very huge question and that’s whether or not Max would be getting a last name! He explained, “Oh! That’s a good question. If Max gets a last name, it’s got to be powerful. I’m 6’6” and I weigh 260 lbs. Max’s full first name should be Maximus. I think his last name should have some oomph behind it!”

Needless to say, The Bold and the Beautiful fans will have to tune in to find out what will happen next!

  • I like him, he could give a Carter a run for his money. I like Carter but the writers are not doing him any justice.
