Mabius is best known for his role as Daniel Meade onUgly Betty, which he starred in for all four seasons, but has more recently become the star of Hallmark’sSigned, Sealed, Deliveredfranchise.
“We have such a fervent fan base. Each time we come back together to do another movie, there seems to be so much more behind it, in a lot of good ways,” he said at the time, days before the latest movie,Signed, Sealed, Delivered: A Tale of Three Letters, aired.
“There’s a lot of heaviness, but also so much delight in being together. I think we’re in such a unique place with the show and having 11 years to evolve as human beings, getting the characters doing the same.”
