In an interview with Soap Opera Digest, Kruse stated that his portrayal of Rory was informed by the fact that he had several family members and friends who were in both the military and law enforcement. They had set forth examples and ideals that he aspired to in life and he felt that Rory would also subscribe to those notions of honor and justice. He walked into the role understanding that since Rory is a rookie, he would have lofty notions of helping people and giving everyone their due process. Kruse found out that while on the first day of his shooting scenes for "GH," it was also Ali's second day. Then, several days later, executive producer Frank Valentini approached them explaining "how there might be some type of relationship between the two of [them."
