Anders Hove

Born in Greenland, Anders migrated to Denmark with his family at the age of fourteen. As a young man he was supposed to take over his father's business but became restless and turned to acting. "Though I went to the university to study law and business for three years, I couldn't sit still." he admits. Anders finally decided to pursue his dream of becoming an actor and was chosen for admittance to a prestigious theater school in Denmark. While doing mostly stage work in Denmark, Anders met and fell in love with an American woman named Anne. The two were soon married in 1980, and started a family. Anders continued to pursue his acting career throughout Europe, then coming to the United States.

Anders landed a role on General Hospital as the sinister villain, Cesar Faison. He stayed with GH until Faison was supposedly killed in a boat explosion in 1992, but he later resurfaced on Loving as the same character. The Loving storyline didn't match the work of GH and was quickly pulled. Anders returned to the role of the dastardly yet complex Cesar Faison in the spring of 1999. While the reappearance of Faison is sure to wreak havoc on the lives of some familiar faces in Port Charles, Anders could not be happier about his character's penchant for stirring up trouble. "I'd hate to play the lead because there is nothing more boring than being the hero." Anders explains. "I prefer to be the guy who comes in and changes the whole story." Anders had a two year contract for the role on GH, but seeing that the character was going nowhere, he asked to be released. He was granted his wish, and the Great Dane fled under the cloak of darkness to his homeland. He'll soon resurface to the small screen in Subspecies 5, which goes into production February in Romania.
