Yet another new face has come to General Hospital, when Donnell Turner makes his grand entrance on the November 25th episode of the ABC daytime drama series.
Turner will be playing a shady guy by the name of Curtis, who interacts with the equally shady Hayden (Rebecca Budig) Look for his debut to come just in time for Thanksgiving!
The actor/model who has appeared in small roles on The Young and the Restless and Days of our Lives previously, plus ABC primetime’s soapy: How to Get Away with Murder and Revenge confirmed via his Instagram today he is a-coming to GH. Donnell related a series of hash tags: “Nov. 25th!!! #thankful #ABC #GH #tv #hollywood #actor #model #i #love #la #life #happy #me #followme #blessed #career #work #fit #picoftheday #pictureoftheday #instagood #instagram #instapic #thxgod #2015 #DonLT”
So, intrigued to see Donnell on GH? How will he shake up the canvas and help Hayden with her plot? Comment below!
SexY MaN 😉
Yes he is, I want to get naked with this man LOL.
Wait your turn!! get in line and no elbowing!
GREAT another new freakin character! WHY? AND its a new character connected to another NEWER character! You might as well just send Mac, Felicia, Monica, Tracy and Bobbi to the glue factory! What a waste! I wish those actors would go and work on another soap so I could enjoy them. Curtis, GIVE ME A BREAK!
I hear you, Timmm! Know what REALLY frosts me? The opening to the show and how there are now so many truly irrelevant characters featured….it used to be that most of those highlighted were true “stars”—if not downright icons—of GH or at least closely related to one of the major core families of Port Charles! In the past, to rate in the opening was not only an honor, but a real achievement….now it’s just an exercise in presenting the banal and mundane! Talk about cringeworthy!
Shay, I rarely watch the opening anymore but I do remember on Y&R, the A team usually got the MWF openings and then the supporting cast would get T&T openings. And that was fine because Y&R supporting cast was Paul, Lauren, Michael, ect. Today on GH, the have a solid A cast loaded with talent but the supporting actors either suck or are stuck with bad characters.
Your last sentence says it all, Timmm! No further embellishment required….
Not much to look forward too after the Jason reveal except him finding out Liz keeping his true identity a secret…the newbie is shady-no secret there and im not too much into Hayden…where are the heroes of this show-they seemed to go out with the phone booth…it seems there needs to be a new shady character just to move the plot…just do it with the characters you have…some improvement in GH writing but not too much-the show still feels messy….a lot of room for improvement…not giving up yet.
I love a man with a mysterious past. Just let me be the one to solve his mystery. lol
Hayden was seen today with shawn, i rather he come back for good, but i’m intrigue.
Most likely this is the ‘I might know someone’ Shaun recommended Hayden
call for assistance…in retrieving the bullet from the garage where she was shot.
No one knows him, so he can’t be connected to Hayden in any way….
I have no insider knowledge of this, but there HAS to be some truth to the persistent story that writers get paid royalties for every new character they create. Otherwise, why would Ron Carlivati have completely gutted the show and flooded it with newbies? And why attach a new character to a new character, Hayden, whom we know nothing about, other than that she is a horny, greedy, opportunistic sociopath?
They do get money for characters they create.
Here, here, Dylan! “Newbie Fever” is a true pox on the community of Port Charles…I wish Robin could come up with a cure for this persistent condition that so ails the GH canvas!!
Good looking guy—he’ll pair off well with Hayden—and probably a number of other cast members too.
Good grief. Enough with the hashtags.
I’m not on twitter but just wondering is it really necessary to put # in front of every word in your tweet? Seems excessive to me but #what the hell do I know #LOL
Don’t recall him on Days or Y&R so lets hope his stint on GH is more memorable.

Does Rocco know his parents are on the way to find them, or has Cullum already tracked them down to the British Virgin Islands?
Back in Port Charles, Carly is informing Lucas that his niece, “is a WSB agent.” She knows Josslyn (Eden McCoy) is being held against her will at Wyndemere, and she has to find a way to get her out.

Maurice Benard Gives High Praise to ‘General Hospital’ Writers; Teases Upcoming Sonny Scenes with Anna, Jason, Justine and Ric

With the highly-anticipated returns of Finola Hughes (Anna Devane) on this week’s June 24 episode of General Hospital, Steve Burton’s (Jason Morgan) upcoming return on July 13, which also serves as the ABC daytime drama’s 16,000 episode, things are about to fire on all cylinders in the story, as noted today by series star, Maurice Benard (Sonny Corinthos).
On Father’s Day, the three-time Daytime Emmy-winning actor and mental health activist took to his Instagram and expressed in a video that he has some unbelievable upcoming senes with the aforementioned Burton and Hughes. Add to that Nazneen Contractor (Justine Turner) and Rick Hearst (Ric Lansing), where Benard gave credit where credit is due to the GH writing team, which is led by co-head writers, Elizabeth Korte and Chris Van Etten..
In this video, Benard said, “I just want to get on here and say that I did some work with Steve Burton, Finola Hughes, Rick Hearst, Nazneen Contractor, and they’re all just fantastic. Truly fantastic. But, I want to say the writing was just exceptional. It truly was. It was exceptional. So, thankful for that kind of writing. I know writers don’t get the credit a lot, but I just want to say to the General Hospital writing team, keep rolling!”
GENERAL HOSPITAL PREVIEW
So now the question becomes, with a major tease like that, what is about to go down between Sonny, Anna, Jason, Justine and Ric? Will we finally get to the end of the line for Sidwell (Carlo Rota), as previously teased by the GH co-head writers? Will we learn what happened to Jason and Anna, fully? Will Justine and Sonny becomes closer or stop their liaisons? And what of Ric? Will he be true blue to his brother or double-cross him? There is a lot at stake as we move further into the summer and one that looks like it could be one of the more exciting ones in years!
FINOLA HUGHES CONFIRMED AMAZING SCENES WITH MAURICE BENARD
As a punctuation point to his video, Benard also shared this written message in the post: “I just did some wonderful scenes with Steve Burton, Rick Hearst, Finola Hughes and Nazneen Contractor and and unbelievable writing, freaking amazing scenes that you will see in the near future on General Hospital.” In fact, Finola Hughes jumped in the post comment thread and responded, “I loved our scenes so much xxx”
Fans will most likely see all the scenes Benard referred to later in July, since GH tapes approximately six weeks ahead of air.
So, are you excited to see what Maurice is talking about? Are you hyped for what’s to come on GH? Any clue on what you think will go down between the main characters on the soap with the returns of Anna Devane and Jason Morgan to the mix? Weigh-in via the comment section below.

SINCE LEAVING GENERAL HOSPITAL
Previously, since his departure from the ABC soap opera. Chad starred alongside Zach Mendez in the world premiere of of Yum Yum at Annapolis, a new play written by Bruce Reisman. Duell last appeared on General Hospital on the January 21, 2025 episode.
The part was recast with Rory Gibson who debuted as the new Michael in May of 2025 during the Nurses’ Ball episodes and who has remained in the role since that time.
In an interview earlier this year on The Able Show, Duell said on his decision to exit the soap opera, “I was blessed to be part of that (show) for as long as I have, but what happens sometimes is if you’re doing the same thing, especially in a creative field for such a long time, you can get a little burnt out in a way. It can make you a little depressed, so that’s kind of what happened. On top of that, I had other things going on in my life at the time. My father passed away recently and I just needed a reset. So, I stepped away. A lot of times you have to go through some stuff to really step into that next level. I needed to kind of feel uncomfortable.”
So, what type of musical genre will Chad’s new song be? Country? Pop? Rock? Dance/Club? Something else? Let us know your thoughts via the comment section below, and if you are eager to hear the new single next week via the comment section below.
