MichaelCQDBH-2

Twin actors Dylan and Blake Hopkins were the first children to play Michael Corinthos on General Hospital beginning in 1997. After starting in the role as babies they continued through until 2001 when the role was aged. As they grew up on the show they began talking and often could be heard asking where their brother was during scenes.[14]

TCSB1
Tiarnan Cunningham took over the role of Michael Corinthos on General Hospital in 2001 when the character was aged. During his short time on the show which ended in early 2002, Tiarnan worked with two different Carly’s as his mother, Sarah Joy Brown and Tamara Braun.

On March 28, 2002, Dylan Cash made his first appearance as Michael, aging the character and revising his birth year to 1995.

After three years with the series, Cash signed a contract in April 2005.

In March 2008, rumors began circulating that Cash's contract was about to expire and would not be renewed,[15] and by April several sources confirmed the fact.[16]

BuddyTV reported that Cash was blindsided by his firing, and confirmed the series was considering aging the character.

It was also rumored that ABC was considering As the World Turns's, Jesse Lee Soffer for the role.[17]

Cash made his last appearance as a contract cast member on May 16, 2008, briefly reprising the role for one episode on December 29, 2008.[18]

"You'd think growing up as the son of a mobster would mean violence wasn't a big deal, but a stray bullet (meant for his dad) sent Michael into a coma that changed his life, and his family, forever. After a year asleep - and a subsequent stint in prison - Michael is no longer the sweet little boy everyone remembers."[19]
During his six years with General Hospital, Cash earned numerous awards, including a 2003 Young Artist Award in the Best Performance in a TV Series by a Young Actor Ten or Younger category.[20]

As the show decided to re-cast and age the character, Cash was fired and the character was put under a coma hoping to be re-casted by Jesse Lee Soffer who played Will Munson on As the World Turns. This was later turned down, seeing as Soffer was twice as old as Cash and the sudden recast would be too shocking for fans.[21]

As of January 2009, there was still no re-cast and Cash guest stared as a comatose Michael, but was seen in flashbacks up until March 2009.

In March 2009, after months of speculation, it was confirmed by TV Guide that soap newcomer, Drew Garrett had been cast in the role. Garrett made his debut on April 24, 2009.[22]

The casting of Garrett also confirmed the character's SORAS aging:[23][24]

"Michael would now be seventeen, revising the character's birth year to 1991. Garrett revealed that he first auditioned for the role of with Laura Wright, who portrayed Michael's mother, Carly. After about three weeks of waiting, Garrett finally was asked to return for a session with the producers. At this time, Garrett was still unaware of the role he was auditioning for, knowing it only to be "Michael," and a week later his agent told him his follow up screen test was cancelled and that he was the new Michael Corinthos."

Garrett on the reason for the recast:

"For the sake of the storyline, and the summer shows going for the young audience… with all respect to Dylan Cash… there is only so much you can do with a 13-year-old actor, in reference to an interesting and volatile storyline. People want to see some stuff go down. And with a younger character, what’s it going to be, skipping class and not doing homework? They want some bar brawls! And for that reason, it will add a lot more interest and attract the younger audience for summer time."

On March 22, 2010, several reports surfaced confirming that Drew Garrett had been let go from the series, and the role of Michael was to be recast.[25][26]

Garrett made his finale appearance in the role of Michael on April 19, 2010.[27]

During his time as Michael, Garrett was nominated for a Daytime Emmy for Outstanding Younger Actor in 2010.

Characterization

Garrett's Michael is very rebellious, and edgy. He is all about exploring, "stirring up trouble and crossing boundaries." The bad behavior is Michael's way of reclaiming the life he's lost. He wants to live a full life, without limitations and believes embracing danger is the way to do it. Michael is in complete denial about how much has changed. Michael is not in anyway thinking about his future.

He is just worried about how he can get the most excitement out of the life he currently has. Michael refuses to take no for an answer which often gets him into trouble. According to Garrett, Michael does not believe he has any other options in life which is why he is determined to work for his father. Michael stubbornly refuses to accept that working for Sonny is not an option. Things are further complicated when Michael cannot control emotions. What makes matters worse is that Michael does not know why he gets so angry; the not knowing perpetuates the anger.

Duell's first scene (2010)

On March 25, 2010, it was announced that Garrett was recast with Chad Duell, who made his first appearance in the role of Michael on April 20, 2010.[28][29][30]

In an interview with Crushable.com, Duell revealed that he auditioned around the same time as Garrett in 2009, but Garrett was awarded the role.[31] The producers had begun developing a new role for Michael's sister, Kristina Davis (Lexi Ainsworth)'s, love interest, which Duell also auditioned for.

His performance was so well received that at the expiration of Garrett's contract, Duell was cast as Michael, and the other character was scrapped.[32] "They had a certain feel about how they wanted [Michael] and now, I guess they're going in this direction," Duell told Soap Opera Digest.[33]

In January 2012, a casting call for the character of Erik was released leading to speculation that Duell was about to be replaced as Michael. Duell later took to Twitter with a simple response to fans inquiry about him possibly being replaced, "I'm not."[34][35]

Duell was nominated for three Daytime Emmy's for Outstanding Younger Actor in 2011, 2012, and 2014. In 2015, he brought home his first Daytime Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actor.

Characterization
Duell described his character as being very multi-layered, having a lot of baggage, but also a great heart. He says that Michael loves his family, and wants to make his father proud, which in Duell's eyes, is what makes the character so interesting; "He's very complex. He's got so many things going on at once... He's an awesome kid but he's had it very rough."[36]

According to Duell, Michael is a tough kid who angers easily, who is torn between being a good guy, but is afraid to feel weak. "I like showing more sides to him. I want (to show) his heart more than his anger. I don’t want him to be one way."[31]

According to Duell, Michael is "never just one way. There's always something behind everything." Duell's ability to bring complexity to Michael is what he believes led to the recast.[37]

Duell described Michael as being "a very strong kid.…He's strong for his father, above all. He has thick enough skin to get through a lot of things."[38]

Duell on what he brings to Michael:

"I see Michael as a disturbed individual. He has brain trauma, and if people saw what I, as Michael, almost did to Warren Bauer on last week’s episode, which was almost kill him, you know that. He snaps, but it builds up. Michael bottles it up. He tries not to show people his anger. If he were to show people his anger, maybe what happened to him in prison would be more revealed to everyone. I am trying to show the heart, soul, and sensitivity of Michael and the struggle that he is going through, more so than him being kind of an ‘in your face attacking’ kind of a person.”

Ava, as part of her criminal plans to take over the Corinthos organization, plans a wedding reception for Kiki and Morgan. She is able to persuade Sonny to co-host the event and have him decide that he shouldn't take his medication. At the wedding reception, Sonny reveals that Morgan knew that Michael and Kiki weren't cousins before the wedding and Kiki ends her marriage with Morgan once he confirms that Sonny is telling the truth. Michael and Kiki have a talk after Morgan leaves and both admit that they love each other. They decide to give their relationship a chance. The next day, Kiki decides to go and stay with Ava, having left Morgan and not wanting to make things worse by staying with Michael. However, when she goes to her mother's room, she finds Ava in bed with Morgan. Morgan is unapologetic and throws his relationship with Ava in Michael & Kiki's faces. He tells Michael that he's done with him and he's staying with Ava. Kiki also says that she's done with Morgan & Ava and walks out with Michael.

Michael finds out that Carly's okay

Michael & Kiki both realize they have to find work. Michael goes to Sonny looking for work, and Sonny apologizes for letting Morgan convince him to keep the secret about Kiki from Michael. Michael forgives him, and asks him for a job. Sonny says he'll consider it. When Michael tells Sonny that Kiki is now with him, Sonny tells him he's suspicious of Ava. He thinks Ava is connected to the Jerome mob family, thought to be long gone. He also tells Michael that Morgan is now in a relationship with Ava and he thinks Ava is using him as leverage to keep tabs on Sonny & his business. Michael takes his warning into account, already distrustful of Ava. Kiki comes by, and reveals that she found out Ava has a brother she never mentioned. Sonny suspects she never mentioned him because he's Julian Jerome, former mob kingpin & head of the Jerome family.

Nephew Rocco

On July 31, 2018, Michael and Nelle's son was born but she gave Brad their son after his adoptive son with Lucas had died. Nelle led Michael to believe their son Jonah had died and even went so far as to try to blame him for his "death" just to stick it to Michael, who was heartbroken. Eventually he revealed that he and Nelle were not married and that it was part of his plan to take her down.

In 2019, after Kristina begins to get in deep with DOD, she asks Michael to lend her some money for the classes that she's going to take there. After she says she'll pay him back in scheduled payments, he agrees. He tells this to Sonny, Jason, and Sam and this worries them. Michael is later realizing how deeply involved she is with this, he goes to confront Kristina about the money and how Willow is worried about her. After Jason breaks her out of the DOD house, Michael is there when they are doing Kristina's intervention.

While he is helping out Kristina, Michael also meets Sasha Gilmore. Nina had introduced them, and they seemed to have hit it off. They run into each other a few more times. He asks her if she likes him. She says she does but then leaves abruptly. They are both later seen at Voloninos and they begin to talk about the last time they saw each other. She said she left because he said he didn't want anyone who had secrets. She says she needs an uncomplicated friend. He agrees and it leads to them having sex.

On July 31, Michael and Sasha go to Puerto Rico on vacation where they meet a woman named Sandy Lance, who invites them to breakfast the next morning. Unbeknownst to either one of them, "Sandy" is actually a drug kingpin named Cassandra Pierce. "Sandy" injects a grapefruit half and as she has breakfast with them, Sasha eats the spiked grapefruit. "Sandy" gets a selfie with them before leaving the island.

On August 7, Sasha started getting sick and she collapsed so she was rushed to the hospital where she was eventually diagnosed with Avian Influenza A. On August 27, Michael and Sasha learned from Nina and Valentin that "Sandy Lance" was actually Cassandra Pierce. Eventually, Sasha showed signs of improvement and was on the road to a full recovery.

On September 16, Sasha confessed to Michael that she's not Nina's daughter and that Valentin hired her to pretend to be. She told Michael her grandmother had been sick and she needed the money to take care of her and when she died, Nina was the only family she had left. At first Michael was upset that she had lied, however at the Metro Court he later visited Sasha in her hotel room and apologized for his reaction, acknowledging she was nothing like Nelle and that she was only looking after her grandmother.

On October 8, Sasha finally confessed that she was not Nina's daughter after being outed by Lulu. Michael stood by her while everyone else raged at her for her deception.

On October 16, Sasha was arrested by Chase for fraud, so Michael hired Alexis to represent her. Eventually, Sasha was released (presumably on bail) and she and Michael went to the Metro Court. Michael gave Carly and Sasha some privacy and when he got back, Carly revealed that she and Sasha came to an understanding and decided to give her another chance.

At the Halloween party, Michael and Willow came to Sasha's defense when Nina tore into her again. Eventually, Nina dropped the charges against Sasha but made it clear she would never forgive her.

On Thanksgiving Day, Michael was looking after Wiley and he eventually learned that Lucas and Brad got into a car accident plus Lucas ended up in a coma.

On December 26, Michael stopped Willow from letting Nelle hold Wiley at the hospital. Nelle had been stabbed but was on her way back to Pentonville after recovering.

On January 2, 2020, Michael recieved an invite to the memorial of the late David Henry Archer AKA Shiloh. Michael attended his memorial on January 14 where Nelle revealed herself to everyone as Shiloh's wife/widow and revealed that she made parole. Eventually, when Michael attended the ELQ shareholder's meeting at the Quartermaine mansion, Nelle and her attorney Martin Gray showed up with a temporary injunction that gives Nelle voting rights to Oscar's shares until it is determined which bequest is valid; the shares going to Shiloh or the Kilimanjaro foundation.

On January 17, Michael learned that Nelle was staying with Brad and Wiley so he decided to move her into the Quartermaine mansion to keep her close and to keep her away from Wiley.

On January 29, Michael, Sasha, Josslyn and Laura were caught in a shootout on the pier. Michael was the target but Laura got shot and was collateral damage. Eventually, Dustin Phillips showed up and fought the gunmen off.

On February 3, Michael tried to break up with Sasha to protect her but she didn't have any of it and insisted on standing by him. Eventually, Michael and Sasha confessed their love for one another and kissed. The next day, Sasha joined Michael at the Quartermaine mansion where they ran into Nelle. After Nelle and Sasha exchanged insults, Michael made Nelle an offer to go away if she didn't want to be in the boathouse where he ended up putting her. Nelle said it wasn't enough and tore up his offer.

On February 6, Michael learned that Lucas was awake and he eventually paid him a visit. Lucas was recovering but had no memory of being in the car before it crashed, though he did have memories of everyone else.

On February 19, Michael finally learned that Wiley is his son when Lucas told him after his memory of that night returned. He was in total shock as Carly tore into Brad for switching the real Wiley with Jonah, and then Michael raged at Brad for what he did.

On May 11, Willow agrees to enter into a marriage of convenience with Michael to help him win custody of Wiley. They affirm that while they still love other people, their marriage will be based off of love for each other as friends and their mutual love for Wiley.

On May 12, preparations for Michael and Willow's wedding began. They announced to Sonny and Carly at the Metro Court Hotel that they would be getting married that same night. Carly was excited and Sonny had reservations, but Michael assured him that he was doing what was best for his son.

They originally planned to fly to Las Vegas to get married because they didn't have time to get a marriage licence before the trial began. However, Sonny changed their plans, insisting that they get married in town, surrounded by family and friends, and told them that he would take care of getting the marriage license.

Family and friends gathered at The Quartermaine Mansion for the wedding. Sonny and Carly, Josslyn, Wiley, Monica, Ned and Brook Lynn were among the attendees. Brook Lynn offered Willow a dress from her closet to wear and Josslyn fashioned a bouquet from flowers found on the grounds.

Millow-wed

Michael and Willow are married.

Sonny called Lucy Coe to officiate the wedding, planned for midnight. Nelle overheard Lucy telling Sasha that Michael and Willow were getting married tonight and stormed off angrily. Sasha called Carly and gave her a heads up that Nelle knew about the wedding and may try something. Meanwhile, Michael gave Willow his great-grandmother, Lila Quartermaine's ring to wear. Michael said Willow was honest, compassionate and tough just like Lila. She was hesitant at first, but then accepted the ring. Lucy arrived with the marriage license and the wedding went off without interruption. Michael and Willow were married at midnight.

In the custody case, Michael and Willow were able to win and keep Wiley from Nelle. This caused Nelle to have Julian break into the Quartermaine mansion and steal Wiley the night of the 2020 Nurses Ball. Nelle had also attacked Brook Lynn by stabbing her throat. When she wasn't supposed to talk, she told Michael that Nelle had a tracker on Wiley through her phone that Michael had found. He figured out the password and was able to find Nelle and Wiley. They were in one of Sonny's cabins in the mountains. When Michael got there Nelle hit him the head with a vase. He was able to find Wiley but Nelle escaped. Carly showed up and went after Nelle. They fought and Nelle was hanging on a cliff. She fell and they detectives could not find her body because Carly did not tell them about how she fell. On September 14, Michael said his goodbyes to Mike and wondered what life could have been like if he had more time with him.

In August at the Nurses' Ball, Valentin, now the CEO of ELQ, tells Michael he is very impressed with his work on developing various green technologies. He offers Michael the position of VP of Green Initiatives, which Michael turns down.

On October 21, 2020, Sam and Jax hire Michael as the CEO of the Digital Division at Aurora Media, while Jax runs the Print Division.

After Sasha has an overdose in November, Chase decides to confess to Willow that he was never with Sasha and Carly tells Michael the truth as well.

As of 2021, Michael and Willow had their marriage annulled, but remain great friends, with plans for Willow to adopt Wiley.

As of Valentine's Day 2021, Michael and Sasha have started dating again, but are taking things slow, to rebuild their relationship.

On March 22, 2021, Michael confirmed to Brook Lynn that both he and Sasha were back together, as well as Chase and Willow.

On April 12, Willow admitted that she's in love with Michael after Michael admitted that he's in love with her so the two end up sleeping together. She decided that she had to break up with Chase so she went to his apartment to end things with him but Chase collapsed due to having a high fever. Michael and Willow decided to hold off on telling Chase the truth until after he got better since he was already battling a mysterious illness. Willow continued to lead Chase on, but feels guilty about it.

Willow ended up marrying Chase as it was his deathbed wish but is still very much in love with Michael. Chase ends up surviving due to a new cure.

Willow and Michael told Chase about their feelings, and he accepted them. Willow and Michael started to date again.

Then, when Drew Cain comes back to Port Charles, they prepare a plan to get back ELQ. Carly invests a lot of money in them. They were traying to merge Aurora Media and ELQ. Finally, Ned betrayed them and voted for Valentin to stay as CEO. In consequence, his mother lost her half of the Metro Court.

On June 29, 2022, Willow finds out she is pregnant after passing out for the second time since March and being taken to GH. Later, she finds out she has Leukemia, and she is keeping it from Michael.

    4. Original birthdate seen on his medical record on a computer on August 15, 2019.
    5. Michael was 9 years old all of 2005 which was a month before his 10th birthday.
    6. Michael was 17 years old all of 2009 which was a month before his 18th birthday. It was also stated on May 4, 2010, that Michael was 17 when he killed Claudia on November 4, 2009
    7. On February 8, 2011, Carly stated that he was 19 years old.
    8. In September of 2012, Michael's younger sister Kristina was aged to 21, making Michael about 22
    9. In April 2013, after Michael supposedly slept with Brenda, Carly stated that if Michael was 4 years younger that she could have Brenda arrested. However, that doesn't add up because the age of consent in New York is 17, and they made that very clear during the Kristina/Johnny storyline where they pretended to be seeing each other. So, if he was under age 4 years ago, he would be 20 now, which can't be right because he's older than Kristina who's 21, and he's been drinking, so he's at least 21.
    10. In November 2014, Michael's documents to change his name listed his birth year as 1992.
    11. Morgan had been seen drinking multiple times in 2015...legally. Since Morgan is being aged so is Michael because he is older then him.
    12. Due to Morgan's birth year being changed back to 1994 as seen on his headstone in 2016-17 ...
