Actor Dean Cain just shared a glimpse into Hollywood’s blacklisting campaigns.
He shared an email from a company that sets up conventions which explained that they were unwilling to work with him because they held different values.
“In regard to Dean Cain, although I have a soft spot in my heart because he sent me an autographed postcard in the mail when I was like 10 years old, GalaxyCon’s values don’t align with Dean,” a portion of the email shared by Cain reads. “[Redacted] also reaches out to us quite often, but we are also going to pass on him.”
While Cain eventually had a conversation with the owner of GalaxyCon, Mike Broder, where they reconciled and agreed that conversation is a better path moving forward rather than exclusion, his exclusion from conventions is extremely disappointing for Superman fans of all ages. Cain played the role of Superman from 1993 to 1997 on the show LOIS & CLARKE: THE NEW ADVENTURES OF SUPERMAN.

This is how they try to blacklist… 👀🙄
What are the “values” that I hold – which are not aligned with GalaxyCon’s values?
Please be specific, Sarah + GalaxyCon.

Cain has long been an advocate for conservative values in Hollywood and has been encouraged in recent years to see how the industry has finally started to give time to the values that most American families desire to see on screen.
“It makes me really happy to see a film like TOP GUN: MAVERICK do so well, or SOUND OF FREEDOM,” Cain told MORNINGS WITH MARIA BARTIROMO in the summer of 2023. “You know, it’s nice to see films that are out there that aren’t hating on America, and it’s nice to be able to support America, and then say, ‘Ok, this makes sense.’”
“It’s nice to be able to say, ‘Child trafficking is bad.’ I don’t know why there’s a big uproar against SOUND OF FREEDOM, but saying child trafficking is bad and we should end that completely — that kind of makes perfect sense to me. Who can argue that?” he continued.
Despite fighting to bring Hollywood back to stories and values that families can support, Cain eventually found it too difficult to remain in California where he was surrounded by people who were hostile to his beliefs.
“My home in Malibu was going to be my forever home,” Cain shared. “That was where I was going to die, and everything was going to be just fine. You can’t beat the weather. And I had a lovely house with the most incredible views.”
However, “The policies are just terrible. The fiscal policies, the soft-on-crime policies, the homelessness policies,” he added explaining the factors that caused him to leave. “The things that our leaders in California have been doing have driven out anybody who can really afford to get out. People are flocking out of there in droves.”
Despite the great strides in recent years to make Hollywood more amenable to conservative values, it is still discouraging to see how these values have, and continue to be, a cause for blacklisting.
