Chris Stack appeared on One Life to Live in 2003, working alongside Nathaniel Marston.

Four years later, Stack would replace this actor on the series. Recalling the strange circumstance, Stack told Soap Opera Digest:

"I was nervous, but I was really comfortable. And then I bolted out and went out with my mom, who was in town by chance, to see Rock 'n' Roll, the Tom Stoppard play. So, I could just go and think about something else."

Here are a few other facts about the actor:

• Stack co-founded a New York theater company called The CRY HAVOC Company in 1997.

• When he's not acting, Stack can be found playing drums with his group, Sensi-tip and the Suggestions.

• Stack appeared as a drummer in the first band of Jack Black's character in School of Rock.

Kathy Brier has been as diplomatic as possible about the Nathaniel Marston situation.

The actress knows One Life to Live producers had no choice but to let her longtime co-star go, as she recently wished Marston well and welcomed Chris Stack to the series:

“Obviously, it’s upsetting because Nathaniel was my partner for almost five years, so it is going to be a difficult transition, but I think that the character is in good hands with Chris.”

One Life to Live hasn't wasted any time replacing Nathaniel Martson. It's time to meet the new Michael McBain, fans:

Chris Stack.

You probably don't recall, but Stack actually appeared in an episode of One Life to Live in 2003, portraying the character Brad White, a man who went to the same school as Rex Balsom (John-Paul Lavoisier), Jennifer Rappaport (Jessica Morris) and Marcie Walsh (Kathy Brier).

The actor also played a role in three As the World Turns episodes in 2006.

Look for Stack to premiere on December 3, as he had the following to say about the unfortunate way he's earned the gig:

"This is a bittersweet way to get a job. I remember Nathaniel very fondly and was sorry to hear of the circumstances that led to my hiring. At the same time, it's my hiring. I'm really thrilled to have a job."
