Susan Lucci 'Hopes' to Return to ALL MY CHILDREN

Susan Lucci and Prospect Park are working to bring Erica Kane back to the beloved soap ALL MY CHILDREN.

In an interview with TVGuide, Lucci, who was a staple of the hit sudser until it wrapped in 2011, said she "hope[s]" she can at least make an appearance on the online revival, currently airing on Hulu and iTunes.

"When they started shooting, I was smack in The Middle of doing [Lifetime's] DEVIOUS MAIDS," she told the site. "And also they have a challenging schedule themselves. They're five weeks on, five weeks off. So we're trying to fix it somehow. It's something we want to do and we hope to achieve it."

Her hectic schedule hasn't allowed her to catch up on the new edition of the show, however. She tells TVGuide: "I've wanted to," she says. "I just got a new iPhone, and I had the link on my old iPhone but it got lost in the translation. I can binge. I can catch up."

As the most famous face in daytime television history, Susan Lucci has held audiences spellbound for years as the sexy, sassy, beautiful "woman you love to hate," Erica Kane on ABC-TV's All My Children. In May 1999 she won the Emmy Award for "Best Actress," which was a historic moment not only for Lucci, but for all of television. She was garnered a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on January 28, 2005 and was inducted into the Broadcasting Hall of Fame in 2006. Lucci was named one of E! Entertainment's "Top Entertainers of the Year" as well as one of Barbara Walters' "Ten Most Fascinating People." VH1 has also named Lucci one of its"200 Top Icons of all Time."
