Dan Ewing reveals why his bad boy character made a return to Home and Away 

Dan Ewing will reprise his role as bad boy Heath Braxton this year. 

On Saturday, the 35-year-old actor revealed that he made a return to the show after he appeared in a producer’s dream.  

‘Series Producer Lucy Addario had a dream about me,’ Dan told the Gold Coast Bulletin. 

‘Okay well not me per se but about Heath returning to help sort out a situation in the 2021 season return storyline.’

While the star was not willing to give much away about his return, he did say that he and his love interest, Bianca Scott, played by Lisa Gormley, have a rough trot.  

‘Things aren’t great with Heath and Bianca so he welcomes the distraction and the chance to once again get his hands dirty,’ he told the paper. 

Late last year, Dan was spotted on set in Sydney’s northern beaches, filming scenes for the hit soap.      

Dan first appeared on Home and Away as Rueben Humpheries in 2007. He joined the show again as Heath in 2010, but left in 2014. 

However, he has reprised his role as Heath numerous times for Home and Away specials, including Home and Away: An Eye for an Eye and All or Nothing.   

In 2018, he told TV Week that he would be interested in reprising the role that made him famous.

‘I would definitely consider it – as long as there’s a good storyline,’ Dan said.  

He added that he loved his time on the show, saying of the cast and crew: ‘I love what they do.’
