General Hospital Gary James Fuller Highlights (James West) His Youth In High-Demand Acting

Young General Hospital actor, Gary James Fuller (James West), reminded ABC fans recently just how young he is for such a high-demand acting role in the daytime soap industry. Read on to see the photos and read the reactions of his fans.

Sweet Photos Of A Tired Boy

A day ago, the fictional son of Maxie Jones (Kirsten Storms) and Detective Nathan West (Ryan Paevey) on GH took to Instagram and shared some photos of himself at work and taking a nap. The younger half-brother of Georgie Spinelli will turn 10 years old later this month. And the little boy, who plays an important role, notably during his screen-mom’s recent coma, got a sweet reaction from fans.

Of course, there’s more drama for him, as the return of his late dad likely creates some emotional moments ahead. In his caption, Gary James Fuller wrote, “Early morning call times lead to car ride naps on the way home! Always grateful to be on set and work with our amazing cast and crew.” Actually, his mom wrote it because she manages his account. But, the photos and the message won over many hearts.

Fans React In The Comments

When even seasoned actors like Maurice Benard (Sonny Corinthos) talk about the pressure and high demands of acting in soap dramas, it’s not surprising that Gary battles a bit with fatigue and catnaps whenever he can. Many GH fans responded to the sweet post.

One follower wrote, “Gary James Fuller you are great as James on GH! Great job buddy! You are so much fun to watch.”

Here are a few more responses from the discussion area:

• Us fans love when we get to see you on GH. You’re a fantastic actor and make a fantastic James.
• so proud of you young man.
• Loved your recent scenes. James is really getting some good storylines.
• He’s so precious! I love watching him!
• Hard work…But it’s really paying off you are so good with your portrayal of, “James!”
• You’re doing great right in the middle of a meaty storyline.

The Current Storyline

The General Hospital plot took a stunning turn with the return of Nathan West, who is now officially no longer dread. Of course, this threw Port Charles into chaos, especially for a recovering Maxie Jones.

Her coma conveniently allowed actress Kirsten Storms to take a break, with Nicole Paggi stepping in. Now, as Maxie wakes up, her inevitable reunion with Nathan is the major story. Right now, there’s plenty of speculation from ABC fans about whether he’s really Nathan. Meanwhile, Damian Spinelli, the dad of James, could end up with a broken heart given Nathan’s return.

What did you think of the reminder that Gary James Fuller is so young for such a demanding role in the soap?
