A new Corinthos heads to Port Charles

GH fans should prepare themselves for a bit of a change, as news broke today that Michael Corinthos is once again being recast. Drew Garrett, who has played the role of the teenaged Michael for the last year, is being replaced by daytime newcomer Chad Duell.

It was announced today that Garrett's one-year contract with GH has not been renewed and he has already taped his last scenes. Garrett, who has become a fan favorite since taking over the role of Michael Corinthos, was amongst the Emmy pre-nominees for Outstanding Younger Actor, which were announced just last month.

His replacement, Chad Duell is best known for roles on the Disney shows Wizards of Waverly Place and The Suite Life on Deck. Duell will make his first GH appearance on April 20.
