Sean Kananis a legend in the soap opera world.

He’s played on multiple shows, and his career has the longevity many actors strive to achieve.

He has undeniable chemistry with Taylor, but he’s wanted Brooke for decades (viaSoaps In Depth).

However, Ridge wants both women also so it’s a toss-up regarding who will end up with whom.

Deacon isn’t the only legendary character played by Kanan.

Many best remember the actor for his role as A.J.

Quartermaine on “General Hospital.”

He first played the part of A.J.

in 1993, but it was only for a few years.

Both Deacon and A.J.

were self-destructive messes with alcohol problems.

However, the actual link connecting them is that they’re bad guys at the core.

Both have a knack for wickedness, and portraying villainous characters is a common trait throughout Kanan’s career.

No, it’s nota return to “The Young and the Restless.

“This time, it’s a film role that launched his entire career.

Kanan took to Twitter to celebrate the news.

“So excited to FINALLY announce that Mike Barnes will be a part of season 5!

Can’t wait for you all to see it,” hetweeted.

A fan of Kanan rejoiced as well.

“Let’s gooooooooo.

It was only a matter of time.

Let’s get it Mike Barnes,” theytweeted.

I’m humbled by the kindness you have shown me.”
