Raphael Thompson, who was recently eliminated from The Price is Right's Male Model Search, has landed the role of Forrester Creations employee, Matt, on CBS soap opera The Bold and the Beautiful.

"As a child wanting to be an actor because of soap operas and actually being on The Bold and the Beautiful was like, 'Wow, I could really get used to doing this.'" he says.

"It would be an amazing and humbling pleasure to be a series regular," adds Thompson. "That would be the ultimate reward."

Thompson will make his Bold and the Beautiful debut on November 20.
