Fans weren't the only ones shocked when Finn was accidentally gunned down by his own mother. His portrayer, Tanner Novlan, was, too. “Brad [Bell, executive producer/ head writer) gave me a call personally and told me where the character was headed and yeah, I was pretty surprised,” he begins. "But, that's the nature of soap opera. Anything can happen at any time, and that's ultimately what keeps people engaged with the show."
His co-stars had a similar reaction. "Everyone was pretty surprised, especially Jacqui [MacInnes Wood, Steffy]," he notes. "She was super surprised because we have so many great 'Sinn' fans. She was speechless and I said, 'Well, I think that's the point of it (laughs).' But, everyone was very supportive. They are a great family and we'll remain friends. You don't go on a show like B&B and not create great relationships."
The daytime newcomer got some advice from his wife Kayla Ewell (ex-Caitlin, B&B). "She was super-supportive," he shares. "She's been through this sort of thing before [when a storyline wraps] and it was nice to serve the show in that way. In soaps, the surprises keep coming, and this is one that will definitely get a bunch of buzz."
