Jamie Lomas has admitted that he is unsure whether Hollyoaks chiefs will kill off his character Warren Fox.
The 31-year-old recently announced that he will leave the show for a second time at the end of his current contract, and has now delivered a message to fans of the Channel 4 soap.
"I suppose most of you have heard the news that I'm going for a second time," he said in a video posted on the Hollyoaks website. "I just wanted to say thank you to everybody for all their kind messages, all the support.
"I've had such a fantastic time playing Warren. I'm not sure if they're going to leave the door open for me to come back - possibly, who knows?
"I've just had a fantastic time playing him. I hope you've all enjoyed watching him and I hope you're all going to continue to support the show after he's gone."
Lomas denied yesterday that he had decided to quit Hollyoaks in order to move to Hollywood, instead naming fiancée Kym Marsh and their 4-month old daughter Polly as his top priority.
Lomas joined Hollyoaks in 2006 and seemingly left the programme for good when Warren was caught in a fire at The Loft nightclub in 2009.
However, he was persuaded to return to Hollyoaks late last year and his character was revealed to have made it out of the blaze alive.
Brendan has overshadowed him as the top villian and is a better character
Coronation Street star Kym Marsh has teased that Hollyoaks bosses have a "dramatic" exit plot on the way for her fiancé Jamie Lomas.
Lomas announced his decision to leave Hollyoaks back in August and his final storyline as bad boy Warren Fox is expected to play out towards the end of the year.
Writing in her New magazine column, Marsh commented: "Jamie filmed his last scenes on Hollyoaks last week, and I hear they're going to be pretty dramatic.
"He didn't have a big leaving do, just a few beers with some of his castmates, but he's got a great exit storyline, so make sure you tune in."
She continued: "He's actually fine about leaving - it was his decision to go - so I think he's now ready to start the next chapter of his career. He'd love to do more TV and film and see where it takes him. Life's a journey, so onwards and upwards!"
Warren has been back on screen in Hollyoaks for the past year. Lomas previously portrayed the character between 2006 and 2009.
Read the full story in this week's New magazine - out today.
Brendan will be looking for revenge so maybe he kills Warren
Hollyoaks star Jamie Lomas has admitted that Warren Fox will be "scared" when mysterious newcomer Joel claims to be his son.
Joel, played by Scottish actor Andrew Still, leaves the bad boy stunned in an upcoming episode when he declares that Warren is his father.
A rattled Warren is immediately left to wonder whether Joel is telling the truth or if his arrival is all part of Brendan Brady's revenge scheme against him.
Lomas told TV Times: "Warren's thinking that this kid could be anybody's - he could be making it up or he could be after money. Joel tells him who his mum is and has a picture of her and Warren, but Warren's like, 'Just because she's got a picture of me, it doesn't mean I'm your dad'."
Mitzeee Minniver (Rachel Shenton) and Theresa McQueen (Jorgie Porter) soon advise Warren that a paternity test is the only way to settle the matter.
Lomas added: "Theresa's like his little sister, and what she says hits home. Warren knows the right thing to do, but he's scared of the truth. If Joel is his son, he's missed out on all these years of his life."
Hollyoaks viewers will see Warren's latest storyline unfold next week.
Hollyoaks star Jamie Lomas has predicted that his exit storyline will prove a hit with fans, promising that there are "dark and dramatic" scenes on the way.
The actor decided to leave his role as Warren Fox earlier this year and his final plot will play out over the next few weeks.
Warren's departure is expected to involve one of his long-running feuds, as he starts plotting to kill Brendan Brady (Emmett Scanlan) when the Irishman returns to the village next week.
Asked whether viewers are about to see Warren at his worst, Lomas told All About Soap: "Yeah, but it's been a long time coming. I've been back in Hollyoaks for 12 months and it's been building up to this moment. This is the beginning of the end for Warren, and his last few weeks in the village are going to be dark and dramatic.
"I think the viewers will reckon it's a great ending for Warren. I've had the five best years of my life at Hollyoaks and have made some of the most fantastic friends here, but I feel it really is time to say goodbye to Warren Fox."
As part of his plans to get rid of Brendan, Warren tries to recruit Ethan Scott (Craig Vye) to help him out - demanding a favour after covering up his recent car accident.
Lomas explained: "He blackmails Ethan and tells him that either he gives him an alibi or he'll spill the beans about his hit-and-run involving Rob. Warren is intent on killing Brendan and with a cop on his side, he knows he will be able to get away with murder. You're going to see some very sinister behaviour from Warren."
Hollyoaks airs weeknights at 6.30pm on Channel 4 with a first look screening at 7pm on E4.
Hollyoaks star Emmett Scanlan has expressed his excitement over the upcoming final showdown between Brendan Brady and Warren Fox.
Warren (Jamie Lomas) leaves the soap later this month and his exit storyline will see him go head-to-head with Brendan one last time.
Hollyoaks fans have recently seen the pair's rivalry reignited, and the storyline hots up in the next few days as Brendan teams up with Warren's on-off girlfriend Mitzeee (Rachel Shenton) to bring him down. He does so after hearing details of how Warren killed Louise Summers.
However, when Warren starts to suspect that Mitzeee is plotting against him, he takes her to the place where he buried Louise - leading to fears that history could repeat itself.
Scanlan told All About Soap: "Brendan has no idea where she's gone, but knows Warren's responsible. In the end, he works out they're at Louise's grave in the woods and it's a race against time to get there before Warren kills again.
"[Brendan] doesn't want her to die, but he's more worried about his proof that Warren killed Louise going with her to the grave. Without Mitzeee, he'd have to start over again. If he can save her between framing Warren that's great, but if she dies, she dies!"
Asked whether he was glad to be involved in Warren's departure, Scanlan replied: "Yes, I would definitely have been disappointed if I wasn't. Jamie Lomas and I work well together, and his exit's a good opportunity to get the two bad boys fighting it out for the final showdown."
Hollyoaks airs the dramatic events on Friday, December 23 at 6.30pm on Channel 4.
Finally Louise's body will be found
Hollyoaks star Jamie Lomas has said that his most recent exit from the soap has given his character closure.
The actor plays Warren Fox, who was finally arrested during last night's episode (December 23) for Louise Summers's murder - which he committed back in December 2008.
Lomas had previously left Hollyoaks in 2009 when his character was caught in a fire started by Clare Devine, but returned the following year.
"It was quite emotional filming my last scenes," he told E4. "I mean, it was emotional the last time I filmed them, but it's kind of closure this time. I think I had to come back to end it finally.
"It's a really dark storyline to go out on. It's going to be exciting stuff. It was sad to say goodbye, I'm going to miss everyone, but onwards and upwards hopefully."
Speaking of a potential return to Hollyoaks, he said: "Never say never. I didn't think I'd make a return after last time and I did, so never say never. I would like to do a little guest appearance in future."
Lomas's partner Kym Marsh recently returned to Coronation Street following the birth of their daughter Polly in March.
Glad to see him go.
Hollyoaks legend Warren Fox looks set to make a sensational return to the show, Digital Spy can exclusively reveal.
Jamie Lomas, who bowed out as Warren in 2011, has been spotted back on the soap's set - sparking rumours that his character could be making another shock comeback.
Paparazzi photographers caught Lomas arriving at the Hollyoaks base in Liverpool on Thursday (February 25) and took these exclusive pictures on the scene.
The star, who was returning to his roots after a recent stint in LA, was then inside the building for quite some time. Could this mean that Warren is about to make his mark on the village all over again? We hope so!
A Hollyoaks spokesperson declined to comment on Lomas's visit, but Digital Spy understands that he's believed to be in talks with producers.
A show source told Digital Spy: "Hollyoaks are tempting Jamie with an offer he can't refuse to return as Warren."
Lomas played the role of Warren from 2006 until 2009, when the dangerous gangster appeared to have been killed off in a fire at The Loft.
In late 2010, Warren returned from the dead for another year-long stint, which culminated in him being arrested and jailed for the murder of Louise Summers.
Fans fondly remember Warren for his involvement in some of Hollyoaks' best ever storylines. And with the village currently jam-packed with formidable villains, there's no shortage of characters who he could clash with if he does return.
Since leaving Hollyoaks in 2011, Lomas's most high-profile job has been the role of Jake Stone in EastEnders. He played the troubled alcoholic for a one-year stint from summer 2013 and also returned briefly for the 'Who Killed Lucy Beale?' flashback episode last year.
Lomas also toured the UK in a stage production of crime thriller Dead Simple last year, appearing alongside Emmerdale star Rik Makarem and former Holby City actress Tina Hobley.

You heard it here first! Hollyoaks bosses have confirmed our scoop that bad boy Warren Fox is making a sensational return to the show.
Jamie Lomas has signed up to reprise his role as the iconic villain and features in the Channel 4 soap's new spring trailer, which has just been released.
Stripping off for a shower scene which offers a light-hearted nod to Bobby Ewing's return in Dallas, Warren turns to someone off-camera and cheekily asks: "Did you miss me?"
Digital Spy exclusively revealed that Lomas was in talks to return as Warren last month, when he was pictured visiting the show's set in Liverpool for talks with executive producer Bryan Kirkwood.

Speaking of his big comeback for the first time, Lomas commented: "I am absolutely delighted to be returning to Hollyoaks. Warren Fox is a character I relish playing, and working with my good friend Bryan Kirkwood again will be a pleasure.
"Warren has been away for a number of years, so it's like starting with a blank canvas. Hollyoaks fans both old and new will get to see Warren back to his old tricks very soon."
Kirkwood added: "Jamie Lomas's wickedly irresistible creation Warren Fox is one of Hollyoaks' all-time greatest villains and leading men. I couldn't be happier to see Warren come home to Chester to create more havoc, settle some old scores and find new love with at least one of our leading ladies.
"Jamie is a much-loved member of the Hollyoaks family and we're delighted to have him back on set."

Hollyoaks schemer James Nightingale has definitely met his match tonight as he infuriates bad boy Warren Fox.
James (Gregory Finnegan) has been recruited to help Warren with his quest to get out of prison - but by the looks of it, things aren't going so well.
https://youtu.be/AXtpeEJbgLk
Hit play on the video above to watch a brand new scene from the explosive storyline, which airs in E4's first look episode tonight (May 26).
James is as smug as ever when he first comes face-to-face with Warren, even joking that the notorious villain should dig his way out of prison.
Furious over the lawyer's attitude, Warren rages: "You know exactly what I've got at stake and why I've got to get out of here so fast, so wipe that smirk off your face before I wipe it off for you."
Lesson learned, James - never mess with Warren...
Hollyoaks airs these scenes tonight (May 26) at 7pm on E4 and tomorrow (May 27) at 6.30pm on Channel 4.
Hollyoaks' Warren Fox is set to make a dramatic return to the village after getting engaged to Maxine Blake - who has no idea who he really is!
We last saw Warren (Jamie Lomas) as a regular on Hollyoaks way back in 2011. He was arrested for killing Louise Summers on their wedding day, after admitting his crime to Maxine's sister Mitzeee Minniver.
Since his return was announced at the beginning of the year, Warren has made appearances on the soap while in prison working with his lawyer James Nightingale.
The exact details of Warren's return are being kept top secret. However, we do know that Maxine returns from a holiday completely smitten with a man called "Mike" and shocks her family by announcing their engagement - all without any idea that Mike is actually Warren.

But if any soap ever is anything to go by, this secret will no doubt not stay secret for long.
A source from Hollyoaks told the Daily Star Sunday: "Maxine never met Mitzeee's boyfriend Warren Fox, so when she is swept off her feet on holiday by a charming guy called Mike she is completely smitten.
"But Warren has a lot of unfinished business in the villiage and there are going be a number of twists and turns over the next few months.
"There's also the matter of Jack and Darren Osborne having history with Warren. As soon as they see him they'll know he's not Mike. Whether Maxine stays with him after she learns the truth remains to be seen."

Hollyoaks fans can breathe a sigh of relief as Sienna Blake, Warren Fox and Joel Dexter all survived the show's first big stunt of year.
The trio's fate has been up in the air for the past 24 hours after a blaze at the garage placed them in serious danger and then they were nowhere to be seen in the soap's New Year trailer.
But thankfully (and rather surprisingly) there were no deaths in this particular tragedy as Warren (Jamie Lomas) pulled his son to safety and Sienna also managed to stay out of harm's way.
However, the drama didn't end there as Warren refused to forgive Sienna (Anna Passey) for plotting to kill his son, and told her their relationship was over forever.

Joel and Warren in Hollyoaks
Sienna has been planning revenge on Warren ever since he left her teenage daughter Nico to die in the Halloween maze fire, but her lies finally started to unravel at the start of this week when Joel discovered what she was up to.
As he was recovering in hospital, Joel wasted no time in telling Warren about Sienna's unhinged behaviour, warning his dad to keep his distance from her.
Of course, Warren was never going to take the revelation lying down and he immediately raced off to find Sienna, determined to make her pay.
Although a heartbroken Warren initially planned to kill Sienna, Joel (who appeared to make a miraculous recovery) stopped him in his tracks, warning Warren that if he followed through with it, he'd never see him again.
Joel's words were enough to make Warren rethink, but he still couldn't forgive Sienna, instead telling her he loved her and kissing her goodbye.

Hollyoaks revisits Warren Fox's dangerous vendetta against Bart McQueen next week.
Warren (Jamie Lomas) has been out for blood ever since he found out that Bart caused his sister Katy's death by supplying her with drugs.
Warren's son Joel Dexter dropped Bart (Jonny Clarke) in it last month by blaming him for everything, failing to tell his dad about his own secret role in Katy's demise.
Next week's episodes see Bart take the risk of returning to the village, just weeks after Joel (Rory Douglas-Speed) bribed him into staying away.
A panicking Joel orders Bart to stay out of Warren's sight for both their sakes, but it seems they may be in luck when the bad boy has bigger issues to worry about.
When pregnant Sienna Blake suffers sudden pains, she calls Warren out of desperation and they go to the hospital together.
The sonographer reassures Warren and Sienna that there is a healthy heartbeat, but the happy atmosphere turns sour when Sienna discovers that Warren is still caught up in his revenge plans against Bart.
Knowing that he needs to prioritise Sienna and the baby, Warren promises her that he'll forget Bart for the sake of their family – but will it be a promise that he won't be able to keep?

jamie is leaving again, his exit is next week
Hollyoaks star Jamie Lomas just announced he is bowing out of his role as Warren Fox live on This Morning today (November 3).
Jamie – who plays the soap's resident bad boy Warren – confirmed during his interview with Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford that he has finished filming with Hollyoaks and his final scenes will air as soon as next week.
Warren is currently embroiled in a complicated revenge plot with his pregnant ex-partner Sienna Blake and has been keeping her captive in a remote cottage for the last few weeks.
Last night's first look scenes saw Sienna go into labour, with Kim Butterfield and Farrah Maalik due to rush to her rescue in Friday's first look episode.
Fans will have to wait and see whether Sienna gets to hospital in time to safely deliver her twins, but Jamie has now confirmed that the storyline is heading towards a very explosive ending.
Speaking on This Morning, he said: "It's Warren's final week next week and there are so many twists and turns in these episodes. Him and Sienna love each other but they can't be together.
"He is such a fun character to play. I've been very fortunate. Bryan Kirkwood is a huge friend of mine and is such an amazing person. In creating Warren, Hollyoaks has done such an amazing job and I am eternally grateful to them for giving me that opportunity."
Discussing his reasons for leaving, Jamie added: "It's just to try other things really. I like to go in, have a little time there, and then come out and try something else. Maybe I will go back, who knows?"
When asked if that meant Warren wasn't being killed off, Jamie smiled sheepishly and said: "We will have to wait and see but I think I've just given you that!"

On 8th January 2020 he is back
Warren Fox tries to explain himself next week after making a shock return to the village.
Warren (Jamie Lomas) is about to surprise everyone by heading back to his old home, reappearing with his twin children.
The villain has been on the run after kidnapping Sophie and Sebastian, keeping them away from their mum Sienna Blake (Anna Passey). Fans have been questioning why Warren would come home after trying so hard to cut out Sienna – but we may finally have our answer.
Sickened to see the man who has caused her so much pain, Sienna flies at him in anger and accuses him of ruining her life.
Explaining why he is back, sheepish Warren tells Sienna that something has happened to Sebastian and he needs her help. It seems the ball is finally in Sienna's court.
Before long, Warren slips up and calls his son 'Sean'. Sienna is stunned to realise that the twins she tried to abduct from Maxine Minniver's wedding hotel last year were her children after all.
Sienna threatens to call the police on Warren, but he promises to move back to the village with the twins if she helps him.
Next week, Sienna receives an anonymous message from someone who wants to meet her in the village. She's shocked to find Warren waiting for her in the closed salon.
Later, Sienna confides in Damon Kinsella (Jacob Roberts) and Liberty Savage (Jessamy Stoddart) about her eventful day. Both are concerned that she could be falling into a trap.
Sienna also slowly starts to suspect that Warren is double-crossing her, so Liberty urges her to think about what the cold and calculated Sienna would do. Can Sienna find a way to double-cross her ex?

Hollyoaks sets up a huge summer storyline next week as Warren Fox's latest enemy causes further problems for him.
Warren's life is about to become a complete misery thanks to a mysterious gangster known only as 'Blue'.
Viewers recently saw Warren have a lucky escape as somebody tried to gun him down in the middle of the village. He only escaped with his life as he'd taken the precaution of wearing a bulletproof vest.
Warren subsequently fled from the village alongside Mercedes McQueen, fearing for his own safety after receiving a threat over the phone. However, the on-off couple make a return next week as Warren is determined to be around for Ste Hay's sentencing over Ella Richardson's death.
Warren and Mercedes wait at the club for news on how the case went. They're both surprised when Ste returns as a free man, as the case against him has collapsed due to a legal technicality.
Baffled over how this happened, Warren starts to worry that this is all part of the ongoing vendetta that someone has against him. He'd hoped that Ste would serve a prison sentence for causing the death of his daughter.
This theory proves to be correct as Ste later receives a strange message from the person who helped him to escape a jail sentence. The mystery individual signs himself off as 'Blue'.
Later, police detective Zoe Anderson arrives at The Loft and informs Warren that she's on the trail of 'Blue'.
'Blue' has been missing since 2017, but Zoe suspects he is connected with the recent shooting as they have found coloured paint on the bullet.
The dates tie in with Freddie's prison stint, but could he be the mysterious 'Blue' or is it someone else?
Digital Spy can confirm that the Blue mystery will run over the summer, building up to the huge changes ahead for Hollyoaks in September when the show jumps forward by a year.

Hollyoaks has confirmed that Jamie Lomas will reprise his role as Warren Fox for a special flashback episode
https://www.digitalspy.com/soaps/hol...-return-again/
Hollyoaks bad boy Warren Fox is set to return to the soap again ? this time in a different context.
The character bowed out of the soap in 2024, though made a cameo appearance last month as part of a flashback episode that gave an insight into the show's missing year following a time jump.
It is now being reported by a source in The Sun that star Jamie Lomas will return to the soap again for a brief stint ? but rather than a flashback, he will appear in the present day.
The site reports that he will make his comeback later this month, and the circumstances around his comeback are under wraps for now.
Warren fled the country last year following a showdown with Dave Chen-Williams amid the Blue gangster storyline.
Jamie has played Warren on-and-off for nearly two decades, with his last full-time stint spanning four years.
Last year, the actor welcomed a baby daughter called Bella Nevaeh with his fianc?e Jess Bell, the star opening up at the time about his partner's two-day labour.
"I just felt a bit helpless. Everyone was rushing around and I was just standing there asking, 'What can I do?' I was in awe of Jess," Jamie recalled to OK! Magazine. "It's such an emotional thing, though, your daughter being born. I cried for my other kids too."
He added: "Things have been a little chaotic, as you can imagine, but we're so happy she's here. We've had a few visitors, including my sister Charley [Webb], it's been amazing."
https://www.digitalspy.com/soaps/hol...cedes-reunion/
Hollyoaks' former power couple Mercedes McQueen and Warren Fox are in for a shock reunion when she realises Freddie Roscoe has been lying to her.
In upcoming scenes, the E4 soap will see Warren's return after he previously left the village. In a flashback that aired last month, Warren returned to Chester during the time jump to reunite with Mercedes.
The baddie had written her a letter that was intercepted by Freddie, who hid it from Mercedes.
In episodes airing the week commencing on 2 June, Mercedes is concerned about Freddie. When rummaging in his memory box, she's stunned to find a letter addressed to her from Warren.
Mercedes confronts Freddie about it and decides to meet with Warren, as he originally intended.
The two exes meet on the city walls in emotional scenes in which Warren learns of Mercedes' bowel cancer diagnosis.
Warren tries to remind Mercedes they have history, but will she give in to the pull of the past, or will she stay loyal to Freddie?
Elsewhere on the soap, Frankie Osborne and Dillon Ray's exploitation story is reaching an action-packed conclusion.
Frankie star Isabelle Smith previously told Digital Spy that viewers will see the same fierce side to Frankie they saw during her and JJ's harrowing sibling sexual abuse storyline.
"I think we've seen this side of Frankie before, when she spoke up about everything that had happened with JJ. We know that she's got fight in her. When it comes to it, she can stand up for herself," the soap star said about the upcoming resolution of the grooming story with Grace Black and DI Banks.
"Frankie sees the danger that her friends are in, so she takes it upon herself to make the first move in trying to protect them. She's not necessarily thinking of herself ? she's thinking about how she can get her friends out and make everything better in this situation?"
