After a prolonged battle with appendiceal cancer, Adan Canto, the Mexican-American actor who turned his music career in Mexico into a Hollywood leading man, passed away on January 8. His age was 42.
Canto most recently portrayed the male lead for the first two seasons of Fox’s drama series The Cleaning Lady. Canto hoped to return to the cast later in the season, even though his health prevented him from filming when the next Season 3 concluded in December 2023 after the SAG-AFTRA strikes ended. In the Season 3 premiere, the show will honor its star with a card.
