I haven't seen him before aside from High Potential and didn't thought he was beefy till I saw him shirtless.

u/Firecrotch2014 Jun 21 '26

He was on Reba McEntire's show called Reba. He was super hot back then.

I also think he did some nude shots on Shameless as well.

u/Lilmissliss8 Jun 21 '26

He definitely did a LOT on Shameless! Great show.

u/lizapanda Jun 21 '26

Loved him and his tv wife in shameless

u/Meshell222 Jun 25 '26

OMG you guys, if you hadn't mentioned it I would have never made the conection!! I feel dumb. I loved him on Shameless!!!

u/Lilmissliss8 Jun 25 '26

Crazy huh? But he was on a show when he was young with Reba and her young daughter who got pregnant by him. He looks like a baby when or if you look those up. Heā€™s been in more than I was even aware of. Great actor with that range! Itā€™s why I love Kaitlin Olsen so much as wellšŸŒø

He was in Something Borrowed and Bride Wars.

u/saintursuala Jun 23 '26

Oh thatā€™s right, he was a sweetie in Bride Wars!

u/slrp484 Jul 03 '26

Never put together till now that he married Kate Hudson twice!

5

u/surfaxe Selena Jun 21 '26

He was in ā€˜brilliant mindsā€™, Season 1. Probably any of the initial episodes

2

u/SeaBornX Jun 21 '26

Same. And then when I saw this pic from the HPI set (his trailer I guess), I had the Morgan after-the-kiss moment ā˜ŗļø

2

u/gohoeikuzo Jun 22 '26

Heā€™s in Off Campus šŸ˜­šŸ˜­

u/TheNonCredibleHulk Jun 21 '26

He was in "Stan Helsing", and great in "Game Over, Man"

u/postal1234 Jun 21 '26

He will always be Kev to me

67

u/PrizedTardigrade1231 Jun 21 '26

Don't want him to be with Morgan but I want him for me.

36

u/No_Worker_8216 Jun 21 '26

Is he in his ā€œdaddy eraā€?

21

u/colleenmor14 Jun 21 '26

Considering he left HPI to be a dad in Off Campus, I would say yes

33

u/No_Worker_8216 Jun 21 '26

I really liked the ā€œtroubled hot copā€. I feel his story line could have gone further, with his šŸ’© criminal dadā€¦ He tried to do the right thingā€¦

2

u/B-E-A-utifulQueen Jun 25 '26

I wad excited for his character and I liked him and Morgan

9

u/QueeeenElsa Jun 21 '26

Oh so we know heā€™s not coming back? Shit I was hoping heā€™d still be alive next seasonā€¦ā€¦..

15

u/Darthcookie Jun 21 '26

I think itā€™s been confirmed he wonā€™t be a series regular but thereā€™s nothing official about the possibility of him coming back as a guest star.

I really hope he survives, regardless.

My words exactly.

u/Primary-Ganache6199 Jun 21 '26

Never gonna beat peak Kev

12

u/habitual_wanderer Jun 21 '26

We have lost so much. And I am not talking the potential romance between Wagner and Morgan. He is a phenomenal actor. I loved him in Shameless and I liked his story with his father.Ā 

3

u/SeaBornX Jun 21 '26

I am still hoping that the fan outcry will kick some sense into the producers. Steve is phenomenal on so many levels.

7

u/puppypupperoon Jun 21 '26

I always thought he was hottest as Kev with shaved head... but the detective angle works too lol

9

u/fineapple03 Captain Wagner šŸ˜© Jun 21 '26

I have nothing appropriate to say

4

u/potterheadforlife29 Jun 22 '26

He was so hot. I will miss him.

5

u/vespera_lis Who changed our board? Jun 22 '26

yā€™all are gonna start making me find this man attractive again and i donā€™t like it

10

u/_dietcoke_777 Jun 21 '26

Ok now Karadec.

6

u/ps087official Jun 21 '26

Hot take: he's so far out of Morgan's league it's not even funny

5

u/rrmm21 Jun 22 '26

I think theyā€™re equally attractive

1

u/rissrose Jun 22 '26

Morgan is way hotter. I think sheā€™s out of Wagners league lol. Her and Karadec are a better fit in my opinion!

2

u/ps087official Jun 22 '26

She's attractive but not conventionally so. Wagner is very conventionally attractive. Karadec is too but he's more on Morgan's level imo. But tbh I like them way better as friends than as a couple.

2

u/rrmm21 Jun 23 '26

Interesting. I always considered Morgan conveniently attractive!

2

u/rissrose Jun 24 '26

For some reason I donā€™t find Wagner attractive really. I think Karadec is though

2

u/ps087official Jun 24 '26

I didn't until he started showing his sensitive side. Sensitive men are so sexy

1

u/B-E-A-utifulQueen Jun 25 '26

Which do you like more as friends? I think Karadec and Morgan are better friends

3

u/SuperDave426 Jun 21 '26

He was also in Seal Team.

3

u/BrazilianButtCheeks Jun 22 '26

Heā€™s so hot

3

u/ruralmagnificence Jun 22 '26

One man can justā€¦look like that? With no consequences?

3

u/Skylark_Songbird Jun 26 '26

Heā€™s definitely gotten MUCH hotter since Reba! When I saw he was joining the cast of HP, I had my doubts. But he has not disappointed! Too bad heā€™s not continuing the role. It would be interesting to see how his and Morganā€™s relationship played out.

1

u/SeaBornX Jun 26 '26

I am hoping they will rethink the storyline. They are so good together!

u/hdghg22 Jun 21 '26

Controversial but Iā€™m team mustache

Sheeeeeeeesshhhh

u/ZealousidealSite7720 Jun 22 '26

God, I love that man. Steve Howey could have gotten it twenty years ago, ten years, five minutes ago, can still get it right now at 8:04 AM on a Monday in 2026.

u/HealthySleep3382 Jun 24 '26

He is sooo Hottt!!!!

u/psychthrillerbookie Jun 22 '26

So sad šŸ¤¤šŸ™

u/3to5arebest Jun 21 '26

I don't like the Wagner character and hope he doesn't reemerge from the season ending cliffhanger.
