Daytime Soap Opera Actor Of The Week

Daytime Soap Opera
Actor Of The Week

Asher Antonyzn (Danny, General Hospital)


(Week Ending September 4, 2026)

GH’s Danny had a busy week of bad decisions, snooping around trying to get dirt on a guy it would be wise not to tangle with, taking Chase’s truck without permission and putting a ding in it, finding a body and fleeing rather than reporting it (leaving behind evidence that Charlotte was there), and blurting out unwelcome truths about Drew with no regard for his sister’s feelings about her dad. You might take from all that, that Danny is the typical bad boy, but that’s what’s great about this, he isn’t as black and white as that, he’s a mostly decent kid who just happens to land himself in a hot water frequently because he’s driven by his emotions, he acts first, then thinks and regrets. In other words, Danny comes across like a regular, fairly realistic teen, and while the writing obviously plays a part in that, Asher Antonyzn’s performance is vital to it as well, the actor bringing such an easy, natural quality to his scenes whether Danny’s scarfing down food at the pool or feeling the weight of a lecture from his father. GH really has done such a commendable job of discovering promising and entertaining talent for their roster of next generation characters.
