Days of Our Lives (DOOL) spoilers reveal that many fans have grown concerned about Stefan DiMera’s (Brandon Barash) future based on a recent plot twist. To save Gabi Hernandez DiMera’s (last played by Camila Banus) life, Stefan was forced to pull the trigger on Harris Michaels (Steve Burton).
Clyde Weston (James Read) is the real villain of this story since he’s the one forcing characters like Stefan to do terrible things.
That said, Stefan crossed a major line by shooting Harris – and he’ll cross it again by trying to finish him off in the hospital during the week of February 26-March 1.
It might look like they’re writing Stefan into a corner here, but this is Days we’re talking about!
This show tends to make up their own laws and wiggle characters out of trouble as they see fit.
So far, there’s no reason to think Brandon Barash will be leaving the role of Stefan based on a few different factors.
For starters, let’s look at what Barash had to say in a January 31 interview with SOD about his reaction to Camila Banus exiting as Gabi.
“I mean, I was confident enough in my storytelling abilities to know that I wasn’t just going to go on the back burner and ride off into the sunset,” Barash said.
It’s obvious that Barash didn’t plan on going anywhere based on that comment – and now we know a new Gabi recast is on the way.
That’s something else Barash hinted about with his statements in that interview.
Barash insisted “there has to be chemistry” when he talked about the possibility of bringing a new Gabi into the mix – seemingly indicating that he did chemistry tests with the new Gabi and that they have a future together on the show.
There’s strong buzz about Cherie Jimenez debuting as the new Gabi after the strike material concludes.
Jimenez follows Brandon Barash as well as some other Days stars on Instagram, so it sounds like there’s hope for Gabi and Stefan’s love story.
On February 7, the official Days Instagram account also posted a pic of a few cast members outside during a fire drill, including Brandon Barash. It appears Barash was still filming as recently as this month.
With all this in mind, we have every reason to believe Stefan’s future in Salem is still bright. Of course, that doesn’t mean Stefan will go without punishment!
As we’ve seen with characters like Clyde, it’s quite possible to remain on the show and still have a storyline as an inmate.
That said, any jail time Stefan might face would be a temporary thing if there are plans for Stefan and Gabi’s next chapter eventually.
