Fans who tuned in to General Hospital the week of Thanksgiving were lucky enough to catch the debut of brand-new cast member Brady Bauer, who has taken on the role of Dante's (Dominic Zamprogna) son, Rocco Falconeri.
The young actor first appeared on Wednesday, November 24, in scenes that had Dante, Sam (Kelly Monaco), and their kids watching the Wyndham's Thanksgiving Parade from the terrace of Sam's apartment.
On an Instagram account that he shares with his twin brother, Beckett, Bauer teased that his Thanksgiving appearance was the first of many GH episodes to come. He also thanked his agency and management teams for believing in him.
"Love this job, these people, what an amazing opportunity!!" the young actor enthused in the post, which also includes a photo of him posing in front of the General Hospital studio.
Though Bauer is new to daytime, he has been acting for a few years and has several credits to his name. He appeared in the 2018 film I Am Jacob, the 2020 films The Au Pair Nightmare and Deadly Promises, and the 2020 series Interrogation.
The role of Rocco has been played by numerous actors since his introduction to the canvas in 2013, including Nolan and Michael Webb, Liam and Oliver Friedy, Charles and Ethan Losie, Mason Tannous, and O'Neill Monahan.
