Big casting news is shaking up Port Charles! General Hospital Comings and Goings confirms that soap veteran Daniel Cosgrove has officially joined the GH cast. He’ll debut as Ezra Boyle, a confident, politically savvy new character who enters the scene on March 21, 2025. Known for his commanding presence, Ezra is set to make an immediate impact—especially with characters already circling the power game.
What Is Ezra In For?
Ezra Boyle is a fresh face with no deep ties to the GH past. But don’t expect him to quietly find his footing. He’s bold, smart, and not afraid to take charge. Viewers can expect Ezra to dive into the political landscape of Port Charles and make some fast—and risky—moves. His first storyline connects him with Drew Quartermaine, as the two discuss forming a strategic alliance. While they seem to have similar goals, both are strong-willed. That means trust issues could develop fast, and tension may rise before long.
Interestingly, Daniel Cosgrove wasn’t originally meant to play Ezra. He actually auditioned to take over the role of Jack Brennan which later went to Chris McKenna. Still, the producers saw something in Cosgrove they didn’t want to lose. Soon after, they offered him the role of Ezra—created specifically with his strengths in mind. During the audition, Cosgrove even reunited with Laura Wright (Carly Spencer), his former co-star from Guiding Light. He also shares daytime roots with Cameron Mathison (Drew), as both starred on All My Children in the 1990s. So, he’s surrounded by familiar faces on set.
Daniel Cosgrove Opens Up About Joining GH
After the actors’ strike in 2023, Cosgrove thought his soap days might be behind him. He turned to teaching acting and even started selling cars to support his family. But when the General Hospital opportunity came up, he jumped at it. According to Cosgrove, the role reignited his passion for acting. He told TV Insider that he now shows up to work early and truly enjoys every minute of it. “Each and every day is just a blessing,” he shared. The actor has already been filming for over a month and is settling in fast.
While Ezra is introduced as an ally to Drew, his presence won’t be limited to just one storyline. He’ll soon interact with Mayor Laura Collins and other powerful Port Charles figures. Ezra also has upcoming scenes with more members of the Quartermaine family. Spoilers hint that he’ll face major decisions that could shape his political future—and shake up the town. With ambition, charm, and a few secrets, Ezra’s path will definitely keep fans talking.
That wraps up this edition of General Hospital Comings and Goings! With Daniel Cosgrove stepping in as Ezra Boyle, viewers can expect powerful storylines, emotional twists, and plenty of fresh drama.
