Daniel first joined Y&R in 2007 and left the show in 2019 when his character was killed off.
In the new interview, Daniel “an absolute pleasure to be back in daytime”, adding, “I forever will be grateful to the fans of daytime in general.”
“It goes back to in 2010 when Cane was killed off and fans banded together, rented an airplane, and flew it over CBS with a banner saying, ‘Bring Daniel Goddard back as Cane,’” Daniel recalled. “And I never realized, up until that moment, how the fans of daytime are truly the greatest fans in the world. They see you as the character because you’re in their lives on such a regular basis, and then as the years pass by, they get to know you as your real name. And then you form these relationships through social media and going to fan events, and it’s just a phenomenal fan base that was wonderful.”
Daniel will be making his General Hospital on Tuesday, April 15. Find out which 3 soap operas are renewed, and what is awaiting a renewal or cancellation decision.
