Rutherford is taking on the role of Claire Hotchkiss, the matriarch of the Hotchkiss family and founder of Hotchkiss Industries and Beacon Heights University. While Rutherford previously stated that the characters all have "a lot of light and dark," she "believes perfection is attainable and is the person who pulls the strings behind the scenes to get what she wants."
