Dr. Griffin Fitzhugh Munro, M.D. is a fictional character on the ABC soap opera, General Hospital. He is the son of the late mobster Duke Lavery and his old flame, the late Margaret Munro.
He was portrayed by actor Matt Cohen from February 5, 2016 to December 10, 2019.
Matt Cohen's casting was announced by Soaps In Depth on January 16, 2016. Cohen was known for several guest stints in prime time, most recently ABC primetime legal drama, How to Get Away with Murder and Revenge.
There was very little information made available about the character ahead of his debut.
Cohen's casting came on the heels of the soap losing one of its longtime leading men Jason Thompson in the role of Dr. Patrick Drake, and the character's introduction would help replenish the hospital.
It was announced that he would be debuting during the first week of February.
He made his first appearance on February 5, 2016.
On February 5, 2019, rumors began swirling around that Cohen would soon exit GH, but nothing was officially confirmed.
He is a friend of Dr. Lucas Jones from med school.
It was also revealed that he is the previously unknown son of Duke Lavery, who was conceived before Duke met Anna Devane. Griffin also stated that he didn't know who his father was until after his mother, Margaret Munro passed away (she wrote him a letter explaining everything).
He has also formed a friendship with Anna Devane.
As of April 15, 2016, it appears he also recognizes Det. Nathan West. On June 29, it was revealed that Griffin had an affair with Nathan's then-wife, Claudette and Nathan shot him in a drunken rage. On August 3-4, Claudette and Griffin unexpectedly reunited with each other at General Hospital. It was also revealed that Claudette was and is still in love with Griffin and he is in love with her at the time.
Dr. Griffin Munro first arrived in Port Charles in February 2016, having taken over the neurosurgery position vacated by Patrick Drake. After encountering Sonny Corinthos in the hospital chapel, he is soon assigned to become his doctor and discovers that Corinthos has been faking his paralysis for some time. After imploring Corinthos to come clean to his loved ones, Sonny tells Griffin that he needs for his enemies to see him as weak. Griffin agrees to Sonny's request under the condition that Sonny keep him up to date on his progress.
Following the accidental shooting of Kiki Jerome, the truth about Sonny's health comes to light, and Griffin ends up apologizing to Sonny's wife, Carly Corinthos for concealing the truth. Griffin is also tasked with informing Kiki's mother, Ava Jerome and Franco that Kiki may have limited mobility as the result of her shooting. Griffin is also introduced to Anna Devane by Lucas Jones, and it becomes apparent that Griffin shares a mysterious connection with Anna. Griffin is also on hand to treat Tracy Quartermaine after she suffers a seizure at The Floating Rib.
On March 15, 2016, Griffin revealed to Anna that he's Duke's son and he has since taken a DNA test that proved that he is Duke's son.
On May 24, 2016, he walked Maxie Jones down the red carpet and received a text from Emma Scorpio-Drake prior to the Nurse's ball.
Later in 2016, it was revealed that Dr. Munro is no longer a suspect in the deaths of patients at the hospital.
He is also eventually revealed to be the man that Nathan's ex wife Claudette cheated on him with and that Nathan shot. On January 19, 2017, during Nathan and Maxie's wedding, Griffin gets a beat down from Valentin after he declaring he doesn't deserve his daughter Charlotte before being saved by Anna.
