Days of Our Lives Comings and Goings Shocker: Is Wes Ramsey Returning As Owen?

By Mara Levinsky November 25, 2025

On Tuesday, November 25, Days of Our Lives released an extended promo teasing major upcoming storyline. And while the video, released on the show’s official Instagram and Facebook accounts, revealed many dramatic twists, it was a blink-and-you-missed-it appearance by an actor fans immediately recognized as Wes Ramsey that really got the audience talking!

Something Wicked This Way Comes?

Toward the end of the promo, which clocks in at over two minutes long, fan favorite Steve Johnson (Stephen Nichols) is shown walking in the park with Brady (Eric Martsolf) when he suddenly grabs a man wearing a hoodie, restraining him.

During Owen’s time in Salem, he was involved with Steve’s daughter, Stephanie, who is now played by Abigail Klein but was portrayed by Shelley Hennig at the time.

When Stefano (Joseph Mascolo) was kidnapped by Victor (John Aniston), EJ (then played by James Scott) ordered Owen to kidnap Stephanie. Owen, whose father was a mortician named Walter (Gordon Thomson), obliged and held Stephanie captive in a morgue. During the time that he was holding her hostage, Owen became obsessed with Stephanie. Eventually, Brady, Melanie (Molly Burnett) and Philip (Jay Kenneth Johnson) deduced that Stephanie was in Owen’s clutches and figured out where he was holding her. With assistance from Bo (Peter Reckell) and Hope (Kristian Alfonso), they rode to her rescue, and once she was freed, Owen was arrested. However, en route to being transferred to prison, Owen managed to escape and once he slipped away from the authorities, he was never seen again.

When reached for comment, a spokesperson for DAYS would not confirm that Ramsey is returning as Owen or comment on whether he is playing a new character. In fact, the rep wouldn’t confirm that Ramsey is rejoining the cast at all, saying only, “The fans will have to wait and see!……
