Dominic Brunt, known for playing Paddy Kirk on Emmerdale, appeared on Loose Women today (January 5) to talk about his future on the show.
While Kirk has been a stalwart of the soap since 1997, fans were worried about a potential departure after learning that Brunt would soon be behind the camera, swapping the Dales for directing horror movies.
However, the actor clarified that this is no end to his time as Paddy, and that he'll be keeping the soap as a priority.
Speaking on Loose Women, Brunt shared that he'd already worked on a few horror movies, which are a passion of his, with his most recent project being a British film called Wolf Manor.
He also hinted that he makes a cameo in the film, and that he was able to work with his wife on the project, who served as producer, sharing that "Emmerdale is all-encompassing, and it was nice to be able to be together".
During the talk, Brunt also spoke about how a mutual love of horror came up during his first day on set with Mark Charnock, who plays Marlon, and joked how he was only supposed to work on the show for eight episodes, quipping: "I just think they forgot to write me out!"
Despite his love of horror, the actor and director shared that films are tough, with development taking years and often falling through, meaning that rather than giving films half his attention, he'd rather only work on a project every few years.
Most crucially, when asked whether he'd prefer to direct or to stay in Emmerdale, Brunt emphasised: "My loyalties lie with Emmerdale, they really do.... I'm happy with Emmerdale, and I love it."
So, there will be plenty to come for Paddy in the future... although whether he'll conquer his issues or continue his downward spiral remains to be seen.

suicide storyline for paddy
Emmerdale will air a devastating new story for Paddy Dingle as he considers taking his own life.
ITV has now confirmed an upcoming storyline in which Paddy's ongoing depression will involve him experiencing suicidal thoughts.
Paddy is currently still under the same roof with Chas in order to co-parent daughter Eve, though the situation will grow increasingly tense as his work also suffers at the vet office.
Even though Paddy has close friends like Marlon and Mandy he can confide in, viewers will see him unable to share the depths of his despair with his loved ones.
In Thursday's (February 9) instalment, Paddy will mysteriously leave the village while Chas and Eve are away on a day trip. Though he's later found staying at a local guest house, Paddy's struggles only intensify.
The storyline continues into March, when Paddy returns to the village intending to say his final goodbyes to his family and friends before he plans to take his own life.

Emmerdale has shared some more storyline teasers for Paddy and Mandy Dingle's upcoming wedding episode.
The reunited couple are due to tie the knot later this year in heartwarming scenes, providing some joy for the Dingle family after a difficult year. There have been tough times for the chaotic clan recently, as they've been at odds over Samson's false allegations against Matty, as well as Charity's suspicions that Tom is controlling Belle.
Later this year, the family will also be rocked by the sad news that patriarch Zak Dingle has died. The story has been written in as a tribute to the late Steve Halliwell, who died in December after playing Zak for nearly 30 years.
Speaking at an Emmerdale press conference this week, show producer Sophie Roper told Digital Spy and other media: "Mandy and Paddy are building towards a wedding. It is Mandy and Paddy, so that's going to be filled with fun.
"We've had Mandy's dress made in-house by one of our dress-makers. It's going to be very Mandy, it's going to be very big, it's going to be very fun ? so look out for some fun in and amongst [the other storylines] with the Dingle clan as well."
Paddy and Mandy became engaged again in March, resolving their differences after Paddy had shared a kiss with his estranged wife Chas.
With Mandy dressed up in a Cinderella outfit, Paddy got the idea to follow suit as her Prince Charming and pop the question.
Emmerdale producer Laura Shaw previously teased: "It's been brilliant watching Mandy and Paddy's love story play out on screen. We've recently seen them get engaged, and there was a little bit of a throwback ? I don't know if anyone spotted it ? to their original Cinderella and Prince Charming wedding.
"There are going to be wedding bells for them in the not-too-distant future. I can't really tell you much more than that, because we're still planning it. But I'm pretty sure, with Mandy and Paddy involved, it's sure to be a lot of fun."
