He's one of the good guys of Aussie television and now Orpheus Pledger has called for influencers to do their bit during the pandemic.

The former Home and Away star shared a message via his Instagram Stories to those with large social media followings.

"Social media influencers should use their voices to unite," the 27-year-old wrote.

"And at least get the conversations started about how to combat the effects the coronavirus is having on our lives."

Orpheus also re-posted responses from his followers remarking that they are "stronger together" and that being forced to face our true selves has "some unforeseen repercussions."

"Some people need support and we need to band together and be true human beings and help each other!" he added.

Orpheus

Orpheus shared a heartfelt message to his Instagram Stories.

Orpheus, who starred on Home and Away for four years as Mason Morgan, showed his compassion and heroism back in 2018 when he saved a woman mid-assault after seeing a man launch himself at her.

"I was screaming and yelling saying 'stop stop stop', I made sure he got off her," Orpheus recounted on Sunrise.

"There was a split decision, there was a moment where I thought 'wow, this is actually happening' so of course I had the choice, but the way I was brought up I just did what I thought was right," he added.

"I didn't think of the consequences in the moment. I just needed to do what I could to help."

Orpheus

Orpheus was a Home and Away favourite as Mason Morgan.

In a chat with TV WEEK, Orpheus revealed that the decision for him to move on from Summer Bay was one made by himself and by production.

"I signed on for three years and I extended for eight months - I'm just grateful for that! That's a blessing just in that," he confessed.

"Home and Away is such a beautiful institution, so many people go [on the show] and when they leave they're a completely different person. It puts you on a completely different trajectory and it's absolutely amazing."

Melbourne-based Orpheus also confessed to Daily Mail Australia that he's working on something different career-wise during his time in lockdown.

"There will be singing involved, but I've been mainly producing music. I'm inspired by all the great eras of music over the years," he told the publication.

Orpheus

The former Home and Away star will strip off on Seven's All New Monty: Guys & Gals.

Seven

Back in July, it was revealed that Orpehus would be part of the all-star lineup on Seven's All New Monty: Guys & Gals.

Hosted by Shane Jacobson and Georgie Parker, celebrities including Olympic gold medallist Leisl Jones, actor and activist Samuel Johnson and showbiz legend Patti Newton will strip off to raise awareness for men’s and women’s cancers.

What's more, Orpehus isn't the only Summer Bay star who will bare all in the name of charity - Home and Away's Sam Frost is also part of the cast.
