Mr. Superhead Is Young And Restless
by Dean


Darius McCrary, best known for playing Eddie Winslow on the ABC family sitcom 'Family Matters' during the 1990s and last seen on the big screen in 'Next Day Air,' has landed a coveted role on a daytime soap.

According to Entertainment Weekly, the former child star is set to take on the role of Malcolm Winters on CBS' long running series 'The Young and the Restless.'

The role was originated by model-turned-actor Shemar Moore, who won a Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series in 2000. He is currently playing FBI Special Agent Derek Morgan on the popular CBS drama, 'Criminal Minds.'

McCrary, who reportedly has signed a multi-year deal, is set to begin his first day of work on Nov. 18. His debut will air on Dec. 29.

Fans of McCrary -- who is allegedly married to former video vixen and best selling author Karrine Steffans -- will be happy to see him work with the Emmy Award-winning Bryton James (Devon), who co-starred as Richie Crawford on 'Family Matters.'
