Sean Kanan: The Story Behind the Story

Shortly after Soap Opera Network reported on Friday, August 24 that Sean Kanan was headed back to CBS' "The Bold and the Beautiful" as Deacon Sharpe, the actor himself tweeted "I never said I'm coming back guys. Let's not stoke the fire of the rumor mill." While the tweet seemed to contradict our reporting, Soap Opera Network has re-confirmed with the show and Kanan's management team who assure us that "Yes...he is coming back." So what happened? It looks like Kanan was not aware that the show was confirming his return to the press, which resulted in some confusion.

Shortly after Soap Opera Network reported on Friday, August 24 that Sean Kanan was headed back to CBS’ “The Bold and the Beautiful” as Deacon Sharpe, the actor himself tweeted “I never said I’m coming back guys. Let’s not stoke the fire of the rumor mill.” While the tweet seemed to contradict our reporting, Soap Opera Network has re-confirmed with the show and Kanan’s management team who assure us that “Yes…he is coming back.” So what happened? It looks like Kanan was not aware that the show was confirming his return to the press, which resulted in some confusion.

As previously reported, a first airdate for Kanan has not been set, but the actor is scheduled to appear on the drama series once more sometime in September. He is currently only scheduled to appear in a couple of episodes, however.
