Is Will Cain related to Dean Cain?

American columnist, political analyst, and sports commentator Will Cain is not related to actor Dean Cain. Not only do they share a last name, but they’ve both made appearances on Fox News.

Dean even gave Will a shout-out on Twitter in June 2020 after the news broke that Will would be joining Fox & Friends Weekend. “Will Cain will do a fantastic job! @ffweekend #congrats,” the actor tweeted at the time.

Will Cain is a Pepperdine University graduate and former water polo player who launched Quince Media in the 2000s and has since appeared as a conservative analyst on CNN and Fox News.

He started working at ESPN radio in 2015, contributing to the shows Outside on the Lines and First Take until winning his own show in 2018. He is currently the co-host of Fox & Friends Weekend on Fox News.

Dean on the other hand went to Princeton University and dated Brooke Shields while there. Dean signed with the Buffalo Bills after college, but a training camp injury ended his NFL career.

He moved to Hollywood, where he appeared as a guest performer on A Different World and Beverly Hills, 90210 before landing his breakthrough role as Clark Kent in the 1990s ABC drama Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman.

Dean has since appeared in low-budget and direct-to-video films, appeared as a guest star on TV shows such as Supergirl and Criminal Minds, and co-hosted The Christmas Caroler Challenge.
