Former Dynasty star Joan Collins has landed a role on a German soap opera. At 76, the diva has been cast to play an English aristocrat on the popular German-language daytime drama Verbotene Liebe (Forbidden Love). Joan makes her German soap debut in April.
What’s the most exciting aspect of Joan’s new gig — she doesn’t have to learn a new language to take part. Producers will allow the veteran actress to recite her lines in English.
“I don’t have to speak German,” says the star, who will begin shooting scenes for her role this Monday.
