TANNER NOVLAN LOOKS BACK AT THE HIGHLIGHTS OF PLAYING B&B'S FINN
Tom Stacy
BEST IN SHOW

What do you remember most about your first day?

“I would say I remember getting my bearings, controlling my nerves, and wanting to fit into the best of my ability, because it is such a well-oiled machine and I did not want to be the one gear that was causing it to crumble. I remember observing how everyone worked, picking up on their different styles, and trying to adapt to their styles and make the most of my work environment.”

What is your favorite thing about playing Finn? 

“I like that he is a good man. He is a good husband and father. He is a dedicated doctor. He always tries to do what is right, even when it came to saving Sheila’s life. I admire that about him.”

What is your favorite set?

“I have always loved the CEO office at Forrester. It is such an iconic set. I remember seeing it as a kid and anytime I shoot in there, I have to pinch myself for a second.”

What is your favorite storyline?

“Last year’s Monte Carlo story, where we got to play the reunion of Finn and Steffy. It was so beautifully written, and the fact that we were able to do that overseas was just amazing. It was such an epic moment, and it was so well-received, and all the ‘Sinn’ fans were able to rejoice. That was such a great story and I really loved that.”

So is it a safe bet to say Monaco was your favorite location shoot?
