Chad Duell is the new Michael CorinthosBreaking news: General Hospital is recasting the role of Michael Corinthos. Drew Garrett will be exiting the part of Sonny and Carly's son, and actor Chad Duell will be taking over the role.

 

ABC issued the following statement on the recast: "We are recasting the role of Michael Corinthos Jr., the son of Sonny and Carly, with actor Chad Duell. His first airdate is Tuesday, April 20th. The continuing storyline will have viewers on the edge in the weeks leading up to May sweeps as Michael and his father frantically try to hide the truth that he murdered his stepmother Claudia.

 

We want to thank Drew Garrett for his time with General Hospital and wish him well in all his future endeavors."

 

Drew Garrett took over the role in April 2009, when Michael woke up from a nearly year-long coma.

 

Chad has appeared on shows such as The Wizards of Waverly Place and The Suite Life on Deck.

Please do not replace Morgan. I love him and I hate that Drew was replaced by the new Michael. It will take me some time to get used to the new Michael. Alot of fans, like myself are not happy with this change.
