Bradford Anderson has always been associated for his role as the young hacker criminal Damian Spinelli on
General Hospital. Recently, his storyline took an interesting turn as he finally achieved his heart's desire by sleeping with Maxie. So what's next for the Jackal?
In an interview with
Soap Opera Digest, Anderson talks about his romantic storyline, where his character is headed and why he doesn't feel threatened by newcomers on
General Hospital.
“I think it's figuring out how to attract the opposite sex without giving up who he is, what it is about him that's already preexisting. How can he show his good qualities to the opposite sex and get them to recognize that about him, without covering it so much with all this stuff about trying to be ‘manly'? To be comfortable with himself [when he's] with the other sex, and not feel that he has to be more than what he is,” the
General Hospital actor told
Soap Opera Digest of what's coming up for his character.
Meanwhile,
General Hospital has added yet another younger character in the form of Jason Cook's Dr. Matt Hunter. Nevertheless, this doesn't come as a threat to Bradford Anderson, who has carved himself a unique place in the cast of the long-running soap.
“At first, when more young guys came on the show, I used to be like, ‘Oh, great, more young guys.' But then I realized that I'm very lucky because my duty on the show is not to be eye candy. As long as they don't bring in any more floppy-haired guys who fall all over the place, I'll still have my spot. So it's never threatening to me when other people come on the show. I'm excited just to have another great person walking around the stage,” he said.
