EXCLUSIVE: Jonathan Bennett is joining General Hospital in the role of Joe Fitzpatrick, making his debut on the ABC soap opera starting in May.
Bennett is best known for playing the heartthrob Aaron Samuels in 2004’s Mean Girls. The actor is all grown up and has realized his lifelong dream of starring on Broadway in Monty Python’s acclaimed musical comedy Spamalot.
Starring in General Hospital will be a return to daytime for Bennett, as the actor got his start in All My Children. Between 2001 and 2002, the actor played JR Chandler, following Jesse McCartney, as the character rapidly aged.
When not hosting Food Network’s Halloween Wars, he continues to add to his Hallmark credits, including The Groomsmen film trilogy, their first-ever unscripted competition series, Finding Mr. Christmas, which he hosts, produced, and created, and their recent A Keller Christmas Vacation.
