Christian Was Last Seen On DOOL In 2017

Christian debuted his character, Daniel James Jonas, on the NBC soap Days of Our Lives in March 2008. He initially signed a one-year contract but then his stay was extended. Christian left the sudser in January 2016, when his character was killed off in a car accident. His death ended his rocky relationship with Nicole Walker (Arianne Rucker). Even though he was already let go, he still made several appearances in 2016 and 2017.

Days of Our Lives was not Christian’s first soap opera. He played the character Mike Kasnoff in the now-defunct sudser “As The World Turns” for three years. He also performed for “Improv Olympic” and was also cast in popular series like “Charmed,” “Pacific Palisades,” and “Beverly Hills, 90210.”

In 1996, he was nominated for “Hottest Male Star” by Soap Opera Digest magazine. Off-screen, Christian loves to go hiking, mountain biking, play basketball, and water sports. He also likes photography and painting.
