GENERAL HOSPITAL is casting a new role
GH is casting a new, recurring role, slated for a 2-3 month arc. The character, Levi, is described as "27-35, cute, appealing. New Age vibe. Soulful, zen, chill. More concerned with saving the planet than how he looks. Maybe long hair, shaggy presence. This is a great, fun role."

“I think we were trying to show the different journeys one takes when one is first trying to have a musical career," explains Dee Johnson. "In our minds, Scarlett was always an artist, a relatively skinless person, and how does that person handle the stress of being out there all the time? It takes a toll and we wanted to show that side of the journey.”

"There was always talk of maybe but nothing was ever matter of fact," he says. "I figured I was done. I didn't even watch Y&R after I left because I hate watching myself on TV. I'm too critical. But I still kept my ear to the ground when it came to what was going on at the show." Then came the call. "They contacted me direct and basically said, ‘FYI, you’re coming back but don’t tell anybody,’ " he chuckles. "That was fine because I’m good at keeping secrets. It was nice to be back and catch up with everybody. It was like revisiting the family."
