Speaking to Soaps in Depth in a new interview, Johnny puts it this way, “It’s not everyday you get to come in, guns blazing, and save the head honcho’s wife. That was a pretty cool intro, and this has been a very cool experience. It’s my first time on daytime television, so I didn’t know what to expect. It’s been a fun baptism by fire, I guess you can say!”

Even though Johnny might be new to the daytime television world, he is definitely loving this new experience. The actor says that even during his middle school years he always knew that he wanted to be an actor and even back then knew that he wanted to have a career in the entertainment industry. While he was still enrolled as an 8th grader in a South Carolina school for the arts, theater was his first passion, along with competitive swimming and even the ‘alternative arts.’ He even joked, “I wanted to be a ninja but there weren’t many career openings.”

With that said, Johnny plans on staying in Port Charles for as long as the producers of General Hospital will need Brando. Hopefully, that will be for many months and storylines to come. Plus, he can’t be any happier living in SoCal, as he absolutely loves all of the national and state parks that the Golden State has to offer. In fact, he says that they affect him on “soul level.” Here’s hoping that we will get to see much more of Brando on the canvas in the coming weeks.
