CBS announced a daytime television event, a sweeping multi-episode crossover between its daytime dramas “Beyond The Gates” and The Young and the Restless.” “The Young and the Restless” stars Eric Braeden, Peter Bergman, Bryton James, Michael Mealor, Susan Walters and Melissa Ordway will head to Fairmont Crest when their Genoa City characters will appear in a crossover event on “Beyond The Gates” which will air in June.

In the episodes, longtime close friends Vernon Dupree (Clifton Davis) and the powerful patriarch of the Newman family, the legendary Victor Newman (Eric Braeden), arriving in grand style at Fairmont Crest, reunite at a high-profile political fundraiser. Over the years, Victor has backed Vernon’s political campaigns, while Vernon has championed legislation benefiting Newman Enterprises, an alliance built on loyalty, influence and mutual gain. Now, Vernon has asked Victor to serve as the keynote speaker for his grandson Martin’s (Brandon Claybon) fundraiser.

Also in attendance are Kyle (Michael Mealor) and Martin, friends who first bonded in New York City after college. Martin extended the invitation to Kyle, who arrived alongside his parents, Jack (Peter Bergman) and Diane (Susan Walters). Abby (Melissa Ordway) and Devon (Bryton James) are also on the VIP guest list, with Devon fielding an unexpected business opportunity from Anita Dupree (Tamara Tunie). As the evening unfolds, a shocking event occurs, abruptly derailing the fundraiser and triggering dramatic consequences that will impact every guest in attendance.

The soap also released a new cast photos for Season 2. The photo features the ensemble cast, led by the powerful Dupree family alongside the Richardsons and Hamiltons who live in the posh gated community of Fairmont Crest. This season, audiences will see a landmark crossover with the hit CBS daytime drama “The Young and the Restless”: Anita’s (Tamara Tunie) emotional breast cancer journey, the show’s first engagement, a glamorous cotillion, a surprise musical guest star for the Easter episode, plus much more. “Beyond The Gates” was recently nominated for a Writer’s Guild Award, and two NAACP Image Awards, including Outstanding Drama Series and Outstanding Hair Styling (TV or Film).
