Soaps.com Chats with ATWT's Jake Silbermann!

He has only been in Oakdale for a couple of months, but already Jake Silbermann, Noah, has become a fan favorite! With his handsome looks and the help of a great (and controversial!) storyline, it looks like Jake will be around for years to come.

I had the chance to chat with Jake about As The World Turns a few days ago and found out that become Oakdale's most recent "overnight success" has been a difficult but fun road to travel.

Kristi - "Let's talk a little bit about the show first off. Noah and Maddie seemed to hit it off right away. Then the attraction with Luke and now Noah's father is in town. Will things get any easier for Noah?"

Jake - Well, he (Noah) definitely has a past which we're going to learn more about. But the colonel is coming from a place that he wants to be a good father, he wants to raise Noah in "the right way". Noah is reacting to that. His father always seems to come back (into his life) at points where Noah is ready to say "I am ready to be on my own", and then his father will try to step in and exert his control again. So Noah will take one step forward and two steps back."

Kristi - "What are your thoughts on the Noah/Maddie/Luke love triangle?"

Jake - "I think more than anything, Noah and Maddie were friends and their whole romance kind of took them both by surprise as well. So, I think at the heart of their relationship they have been friends and I hope they will remain friends."

Kristi - "Now that Maddie knows the truth about Noah and Luke, how will the relationship change?

Jake - "She is a very supportive person and I think she is ultimately supports them both."

Kristi - "What has been the response of fans to the storyline?"

Jake - "It's been very supportive. I've only encountered people saying how happy they are about this storyline and that it's being done really well. I'm honored to be part of such an important storyline. I didn't really know what to expect (but) everyone has been great and I've made some really good friends. As an actor, you're always excited to begin new things but don't know what to expect."

Kristi - "Where would you like the character of Noah to go in the months ahead?"

Jake - "There are so many places that this romance can and will go that I just want to see it go to a place of real emotions."

Soaps.com also had the chance to chat with Jake about other cast members and we talked about some funny moments from the set. Stay tuned, we'll have the rest of my interview with Jake in a few days!

My huge thanks go out to Jake Silbermann for taking time out of his busy schedule to chat with us. Soaps.com loves to hear news from the set. As the shooting schedule heads into the busy fall ratings period, we are looking forward to seeing a lot more of you on ATWT!


Since joining the cast of As The World Turns in June, Jake Silbermann has made a huge impression on fans, and with only a couple of months on the canvas he is already in the middle of a huge storyline: Luke and Noah's romance!

I chatted with Jake about the storyline a couple of weeks ago. You can read that article here. We also spoke about his fellow actors and how his life has changed since joining the show in June.

Kristi - "Being such a new character on the Oakdale canvas, what has it been like to be thrust right to the front burner?"

Jake - "Everybody has been very supportive and the feedback (from the fans) has been good so I just kind of feel like I've been joined up with this storyline going all the way back to Van's storyline last summer (that is when Luke came out to his family). It's really great to be such a strong part of this great storyline."

Kristi - "Noah has been polarized a bit and spends most of his time with Luke and Maddie. Will Noah start branching out to other members of the community soon?"

Jake - "I have started working with some more of the other actors in the show. I've been working more with the (entire) Snyder families and have some scenes coming up with Dusty."

Kristi - "Which cast member would you say you look up to the most and why?"

Jake - "I can't single anyone out. I've been learning from them all and it's been great."

(Kristi's note #1: I think Jake's a little bit of a politician! I'm kidding him, of course. With all the great actors on the show it would be difficult to single anyone out!)

Kristi - "Who is the funniest co-worker on the set and what do they do that perks everyone up?"

Jake - (chuckles) "Van is the silliest, he's a real character. There are a lot of funny people on the set, but Van. . .(I think) it's the impressions of the other actors or just people who are standing around (that makes him funny)."

Kristi - "We hear that days on the set can be long (and sometimes boring). What do you do to pass the time?"

Jake - "I love to go over the work, to run lines with the other actors. Personally I love to go down to the floor early and watch a few scenes before me, just to get the physicality of the acting back."

Kristi - "Being fairly new to ATWT, have you participated in any fan events?"

Jake - "Yes, and they have been great. [The fans] are very passionate about the shows and the storylines, and that really means the world to any actor. It's great to know how they care. I wasn't expecting this at all, I thought it would come down the line, but they have been really quick to embrace Noah. I hope you all keep enjoying the character and I love hearing feedback from the fans."

(Kristi's note #2: You can contact Jake through the show by clicking here.)

Kristi - "To all the actors who are just getting into the business, do you have any advice for them?"

Jake - "No matter what, if what you do is coming from a real place that is the goal. Just find something inside yourself that you can relate to the character. If you find the part of any role that comes from your heart, you'll make that part yours."

Thank you, Jake, for speaking to Soaps.com. We love hearing news from the set and wish you lots of luck with the role of Noah.
