Easton Rocket Sweda

Easton Rocket Sweda took over the role of Leo Falconeri on General Hospital in August 2021 when the show decided to go a new direction with the character. He was featured a lot at the start as it became apparent something was going on with Leo, and he was eventually diagnosed with autism. Easton appeared at a steady rate going forward, featured in family moments and holidays, bits here and there in the Quartermaine mansion, etc. He was given emotional material when Leo was trying to navigate his step-father’s memory loss, and has gotten to be involved in some pretty funny scenes as well. In 2024 however, Easton saw his airtime drop rapidly, last appearing in May for that year, even though things on the canvas made sense for Leo to be present. In 2025 he did not get his first episode until Thanksgiving, which was followed up with Christmas, and 2026 appears to be a slow Leo year thus far as well.

Career Highlights
Easton got his start doing primarily modelling jobs, working for companies including Gymboree and Vans. In 2024 he was seen in his first film, The Present.

    • “Hey, Easton, we’re so lucky to have you on GH. And I’m so lucky to work with you. Happy New Year, my amazing ‘son.” – Lisa LoCicero, Instagram
    • “I love Easton [Rocket Sweda, Leo]! He’s such a sweetheart. He has such an amazing energy. We have a lot of fun together and I do agree that she felt this deep sense of wanting to protect her little stepbrother from Austin and all of that. I do think we’ve gotten to see some elements of, she does have a soul! Brook Lynn does have a heart, she does care. I think bringing children into her world has allowed the audience to see that, and for me to get to play that, as well.” – Amanda Setton, Soap Opera Digest
    • “I understand Easton’s anxiety and his behaviors on set, which, you know, I think I can kind of corral his energy, and when he wants to move around so much, I can just put my hands on his shoulders. Just, ‘Hey, we’re going to stay right here.'” – Wally Kurth, ABC WAA31
    • “He’s such a cool kid. His parents are cool, too. I see him having a great time and loving coming to work. He finds it energizing. Like all kid actors, he knows all the lines – both his and yours! He’s such a sweet kid and is so cute.” – Lisa LoCicero, SoapHub
    • “He’s an adorable little guy. Super-high energy. He’s a terrific kid who knows his lines and is quite professional. He practices. We run lines together. He’s there and he takes it seriously. He’s a lovely boy and I’m so excited that he seems to be really thriving. He really wants to be a good actor and co-worker. That’s huge for these kids.” – Wally Kurth, TV Insider
