The actor followed that tweet with, “Sometimes, when u start over, u have to deal with manure, rocks, mud, new seeds...but after a while u start smelling the freshest roses.”

Muhney, 39, who played Adam Newman on Y&R since 2009, officially confirmed his exit from the CBS soap opera via social media in August. "Just got an official call, although things got very close, I will not be returning to Y&R. That part of my life is over. Moving on..." he wrote on Twitter. "I was hopeful for a return, but now I'm hopeful for the future. Now you'll just have to promise to tune in to my future projects! #lovexo."

He has since been cast in four diverse projects. "My latest film roles: 1) The love interest & antagonist. 2) A married man in the closet, coming out. 3) A Redneck White Trash Pimp. #THESPIANism," he teased on Twitter in October. "And this 4th movie? Leading role starts shooting in January. WWII soldier fighting the Nazis...it's English Patient meets Boys From Brazil!"
