Meet 'Burn Notice' Cast Members 12 Years after 1st Episode of the Fan-Famous TV Series Aired
"Burn Notice" became a hit television show for its exciting storyline that kept viewers at the edge of their seats and the stellar cast that portrayed each role perfectly.
It's been 12 years since "Burn Notice" first premiered on television and had exciting plot twists in nearly every episode.
Thanks to the show's writers and star-studded cast, "Burn Notice" became an instant on-air favorite. Here's a look at the cast since the series ended.
JEFFREY DONAVAN
Already an established actor then, Jeffrey Donavan significantly contributed to the show's success, starring as former professional intelligence agent Michael Westen.
In 2011, a spin-off film was created, "Burn Notice: The Fall of Sam Axe," which the actor directed but did not appear in.

Three years later, Donavan landed a recurring role as Dodd Gerhardt in the series "Fargo" and in 2016, became the lead character in the series "Shut Eye."
This year, Donavan appeared in the dark comedy thriller "Villains," alongside Bill Skarsgard and Maika Monroe.

The actor said of the characters:
"The absurdity of these characters is what's appealing. When I first read it, I was so impressed, but I was going, 'Are they really going for farce in what is usually a terrifying home invasion genre?' Because that's almost impossible to do."

GABRIELLE ANWAR
Like the rest of her co-stars, Gabrielle Anwar already had a list of credited film and television appearances before "Burn Notice."
Some of these include "If Looks Could Kill," "Beverly Hills, 90210," "Wild Hearts Can't Be Broken," "Scent of a Woman," "For Love or Money," and "The Three Musketeers."

In the show, Anwar plays Michael's former love interest, Fiona Glenanne, who spoke with an Irish accent in the pilot episode but dropped it soon after to fit in America.
Since the series, the actress fell in love with Miami, where the storyline took place and decided to make it her permanent home.
Anwar also fell in love with chef Shareef Malnik, whom she wed in 2015 following a 14-month-long engagement.
BRUCE CAMPBELL
Like his character Sam in the show, Bruce Campbell likes taking on challenges and finds ways to get the job done. In 1981, he starred and co-executive produced "The Evil Dead," which became a hit.

Both before and after "Burn Notice," Campbell has raked up several shows and films, including "My Name Is Bruce," which he directed and starred as himself.
In 2013, Campbell co-produced the remake of "Evil Dead" and reprised his iconic role in the 2015 film "Ash vs. Evil Dead."

To add to his list of entertainment projects, Campbell published his own memoir called "Hail to the Chin: Further Confessions of a B Movie Actor."
