Double Resurrection? Days Shocker as James Scott AND Brandon Barash Return—But There’s a Twist!

Days of Our Lives is flipping the hourglass upside down with a comeback that no one saw coming: both James Scott (EJ DiMera) and Brandon Barash (Stefan DiMera) are reportedly returning to Salem… at the same time.

Yes, you read that right. Two of the most iconic — and complicated — DiMera men may soon be walking the same streets again. But fans shouldn’t expect a happy family reunion. In fact, insiders tease that their simultaneous return will launch one of the darkest DiMera storylines in years.

So how is this even possible?

James Scott famously left DOOL years ago, and his character, EJ, was believed dead — until it was revealed he was revived by Dr. Rolf. Meanwhile, Brandon Barash’s Stefan also met a tragic end… only to later be revived and live on through “Jake,” then Stefan again (it’s Salem, after all).

But now, new leaked scripts hint that both versions of EJ and Stefan may co-exist — leading many to believe a DiMera doppelgänger plot is about to explode.

“This isn’t just a return — it’s a reckoning,” a source close to production revealed. “There’s more than one EJ… and not all of them are who they claim to be.”

Fans are already speculating that one of them is a clone, a memory implant, or worse — a DiMera experiment gone rogue. And with Gwen stirring up trouble, and Kristen always a wildcard, the stakes have never been higher.

Can Salem survive two DiMera princes?
Or is this the beginning of an all-out family war?
