Coronation Street Cast Speaks Out On Maximus Evans Exit

“Coronation Street” star Maximus Evans has received praises from fans and co-stars as he waved goodbye to his villainous role as Corey Brent.

After months of searching for justice for Seb Franklin’s (Harry Visinoni) murder, Corey Brent finally ended up in jail after he was being arrested when he tried to escape the cobbles with his dad, Stefan (Paul Opacic).

When the two were on their way to the airport, the vehicle came to a stop and Gary Windass (Mikey North) surprisingly opened the van door and revealed that they were sent to the police station to arrest Corey (Maximus Evans).
