In 1996, the late Tyler Christopher originated the role of Nikolas Cassadine. As the first and most authentic Dr. Prince, Tyler set the stage and paved the way for his successors. Today, his depiction of a true Cassadine lives on to inspire others.
Over the years Tyler Christopher became a household name, and the role of Nikolas Cassadine was iconized by the Emmy winning actor. That’s why it’s not surprising that those who’ve played the role after Christopher look upon his work as a guide.
Fast forward some years and a few Nikolas Cassadine recasts later, General Hospital found the perfect fit. GH fans warned up to Marcus Coloma in no time, becoming comfortable with his portrayal of this beloved character.
General Hospital news reports confirm that GH is onto yet another Nikolas. Adam Huss seems to be the permanent fixture after Coloma’s shocking GH exit. Despite the fan backlash, Marcus Coloma has yet to return. However, Huss has made a big impression on fans after the emotional scene with his tv son. Shockingly, Spencer Cassadine (Nicholas Alexander Chavez) and his dad Nikolas reunited after dear old dad’s disappearance. The most shocking part of this all is that Nikolas and his son put their issues aside for Ace and for their own relationship. The scenes were natural and raw. Additionally, Nik and Spencer’s emotional scene seem to capture a familiar feel.
General Hospital news and spoilers report that Adam Huss revealed his secret. There’s no question that scenes like those take preparation. Evidently, Adam Huss extensively prepared for his first major Nikolas Cassadine scene. Recently, Huss revealed to Soaps In Depth, “I watched a lot of scenes between Tyler Christopher and Nicolas Bechtel. What a beautiful dynamic they had, especially in the scenes around the fire when Spencer got burned and Nikolas was at the hospital.”
From there Huss then filmed the Nikolas and Spencer reunion scenes with Nicholas Alexander Chavez. GH spoilers reveal Adam’s take on Nik and Spencer’s relationship. He continued to Soaps In Depth, “I believe what transpires between them is sincere, and there is a sincere want and need from Nikolas to reconnect with Spencer. Which is why he is ready to face whatever he is going to face when it occurs. I also believe he would be willing to do whatever it takes in that moment to get what he needs. It’s definitely interesting, the direction it goes in.”
