Actor Van Hansis has landed a new role on the long-running soap opera General Hospital. Hansis, 43, will play the character Lucas Jones. 

Jones first appeared as a child character back in the late 1990s. He’s been played by a handful of actors over the last 25 years, most notably Ryan Carnes between 2004-2005, 2014-2020, and briefly earlier this year. 

Hansis is best known for playing Luke Snyder on As the World Turns from 2005-2010. He also starred in the fabulous, queer web series, Eastsiders, for which he won a Queerties award.
