Danny Morgan (Asher Antonyzyn) has never really had a relationship with his father. Sam gave birth to Danny in 2012, which is the same year that Steve Burton left General Hospital. So for the next five years, Danny only knew of his father through other peoples memories and photos.
Reportedly, the role of Danny Morgan was passed through a few actors and ultimately landing with Asher Antonyzyn in 2023. According to General Hospital news reports, Asher made his acting debut as Danny.
Danny and Jason Morgan Spend Time Together
In a recent interview between Soaps In Depth and Asher, the young actor shed some light on Danny’s storyline. The discussion also touched on the developing bond with his father, Jason Morgan. “At first, I was like, ‘Oh, I’ll probably just be here for a week or a couple of weeks and then [away for] four months,” he confessed.
“And when Steve Burton was coming back as Jason, I was like, ‘Since Danny never really had storyline with him, maybe I’ll come back out here a lot more and be able to do that with him. And then it happened! So that was pretty cool.”
Moreover, General Hospital spoilers reveal that Asher Antonyzyn let fans in on commonalities between himself and his TV dad, Steve Burton. “I did watch myself in my first scenes but I don’t really like to watch myself,” he confessed. “I was talking about that with Steve Burton and he was like, Yeah, I’m the exact same way. I don’t like to watch myself because that’s when I overthink it way too much. And I was like, “Yeah, that is very true.’ I get cringed out when I watch myself!”
The latest General Hospital spoilers indicate that Jason and Danny’s relationship grows as they spend more time together. Sam won’t be too happy about the fact that Danny is spending so much time with his dad. How will this affect Jason and Sam’s relationship and their relationship with Danny?
