Fans have long awaited the homecoming of Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) and Olivia Falconeri’s (Lisa LoCicero) first son, Dante Falconeri (Dominic Zampgrogna).
General Hospital news and spoilers reveal breaking GH news as Daytime Confidential confirms the return of Dominic Zamprogna to reprise his role as Dante. It has been stated that “set side sources” have confirmed this news.
Dante is currently away from home, his estranged wife Lulu (Emme Rylan), his mother, Olivia, and all his family close friends. He is away as he tries to get treatment for his PTSD.
Michael Corinthos, now played by Chad Duell, is the third main actor to take on the role. Dylan Cash originated the role in 2002 before the inevitable SORAS that would soon occur in 2008. Drew Garrett stepped in as teen age Michael and played the part from 2009-2010. In 2010, Chad Duell took over the character as he was better for for a maturing, young adult.
General Hospital news and spoilers reveal Drew Garrett (ex-Michael Corinthos) wants to return to the set of General Hospital playing Sonny’s (Maurice Benard) son. But this time he would be taking on a recast role for Morgan Corinthos, replacing Bryan Craig. Morgan has been presumed dead since 2016. GH fans have been hoping Morgan isn’t really dead for the last four years, keeping the faith that GH will do what soaps do, and bring him back as if he’s been alive this entire time.
Back in 2019, GH fans were rallying on Twitter, suggesting Garrett take on the role as Morgan Corinthos recast. Garrett replied by retweeting a fan’s tweet that mentioned GH Executive Producer, Frank Valentini. Garrett added to the tweet, “Could it work?”
General Hospital rumors claim Morgan could still be alive and trying to make his way home. Since Bryan Craig is currently involved in other projects and is not available to return to General Hospital, fans wonder about this year old tweet, wanting to know if there was ever a follow up with Frank Valentini.
When new episodes resume, there will be many story lines with loose ends that need to be tied, one of them being the an incomplete Corinthos family. If fans get their way, Morgan Corinthos may not be dead after all. Would a recast with Drew Garrett work, or is Bryan Craig the only face that should be tied to this character?
In the 1990’s Julia Barrett founded Port Charles’s own cosmetics company, Deception. She launched the business with Dominique (Shell Danielson) and Scotty Baldwin and hired Julia’s sister Brenda Barrett (Vanessa Marcil) as the very first ‘Face of Deception.’ According to General Hospital history, when Dominique passed away in 1994, Scotty and Julian left the company, and left Lucy to run things as CEO. From there, the rest is history.
Fast forward twenty some years and Deception has found a new face and is ready to launch the modern day version of the cosmetic company. Things were starting to fall into place for Lucy when she discovered Sasha Gilmore (Sofia Mattsson). Sasha was the perfect woman to represent Deception and Lucy was ready to run with it. Maxie Jones (Kirsten Storms) and Lucy are working together to make sure this project becomes a success and they are counting on Sasha to help make that happen. Sasha is going through some major drama in her life after she and Michael broke up. Sasha is feeling overwhelmed and caved into being persuaded into taking drugs.
General Hospital spoilers reveal Sasha’s drug use isn’t just a one time thing. Unfortunately, she is headed down a dark path which could jeopardize her own career as well as Deception as a whole.
As General Hospital rumors regarding the return of Brenda Barrett circulate, the story line has the potential to head into a direction no one saw coming. GH rumors suspect Marcil May return to General Hospital in the ear future after GH news and spoilers claim she is Dev Cerci’s (Ashton Arbab) mother. GH rumors hint that Sasha and Brenda will meet and connect during Sasha’s dark days as Brenda could return to step in to the role of representing the company. Lucy Coe will have to go to great lengths to keep Deception in a positive lime light, and by doing so it’s likely she will reach out to Brenda to come to Port Charles.
Previously, General Hospital Blog revealed Maurice Benard (Sonny Corinthos) spoke of Marcil, stating that bringing the actress back would be a “no brainer.”Will Brenda return as part of multiple upcoming stories in Port Charles?
When GH fans think of General Hospital in the 1990s, we can’t help but revolve those thoughts around Jagger Cates. Antonio Sabato Jr. played Jagger Cates and quickly became ever woman’s celebrity crush.
Back then, women in Port Charles fought over John Jagger Cates, but he had a lengthy yet troubled relationship with Karen Wexler (Cari Shayne). Of course, there was also Brenda Barrett. His fiery and passionate relationship with Brenda Barrett (Vanessa Marcil) was the topic of conversation in Daytime TV.
According to General Hospital history, it’s been about two decades since Antonio Sabato Jr. played Jagger. But fans haven’t forgotten his name, or his face.
These days, Antonio Sabato Jr. has been making a name for himself in a different light. According to General Hospital news, Fox News reported on Sabato’s latest up and coming project. According to Fox News, Antonio Sabato Jr. revealed via Twitter on Thursday that he’s developing a “conservative movie studio for all patriots” and plans on taking on projects that other Hollywood studios “would never” do.
Antonio Sabato Jr. has supported our President Trump from the very beginning. Back in 2016 Sabato expressed his support for the conservative Oresident and received backlash for expressing his beliefs. He has since been blacklisted from Hollywood as a result of his expression. He like many others feel that their voice should not be muted, let alone his acting talents. Sabato Jr. is now making it his mission to do right by those in Hollywood that have had a similar experience while clashing conservatism and Hollywood.
Sofia Mattsson is fairly new to General Hospital and GH fans are just starting to get to know the real woman who plays the role of Sasha Gilmore and lives in Port Charles. Mattsson reveals a little about herself via her social media posts, letting fans in to see the woman behind the role. In a recent post on Instagram, Sofia Mattsson announced her love for nature and hope that one day she will live countryside.
Sofia currently resides in California in order to be near her place of employment at Prospect Studios. Genera Hospital rumors have suggested if Mattsson leaves GH, she would most likely follow her dreams on where she wants to live. Hopefully someday she can settled down somewhere in the country.
Over the years, General Hospital has made history time and time again with its iconic storylines. Sadly, those creative and legendary stories won’t told for a while as we navigate through Covid-19. Although this won’t be forever, it is still difficult for the cast, crew, and fans alike to wrap our heads around the reality of it all. While we sit and wait for our world as we know it to go back to normal, we can reflect on the fond memories from our favorite Daytime Drama.
As fashion trends and TV show reboots from the 1990s have begun to resurface, one very memorable General Hospital storyline from the 1990s comes to mind. In the early 1990s I got sucked in and swept away. I started watching GH with my mom and sister and the story that was front and center revolved around Jason Quartermaine. Now, he goes by Jason Morgan (Steve Burton). Jason, Jagger Cates (Antonio Sabato Jr.), and Karen Wexler (Cari Shayne) were stranded on an island and I was hooked!
Romance, drama, and adventure followed these three wherever they went, even on a deserted island! After being shipwrecked, they were stranded on a deserted island, making things very awkward for everyone involved since Jagger and Karen were a couple, Jason was annoyed, and the two men weren’t too keen on each other. This love triangle was secondary to that of Jagger, Karen, and Brenda Barrett (Vanessa Marcil), but developed as Jason Quartermaine was basically a third wheel when he, Jagger, and Karen were stuck on a deserted island.
Tension was always thick between Jason and Jagger. Of course, it was all over a girl. Karen Wexler was the girl they both had their eye on. So, in one climatic scene, Jagger walked up as Jason embraced Karen from behind. Naturally, Jagger was angry and jealous, but it wasn’t what it looked liked. Instead, Jason was comforting Karen after the attempted rape. Like always, Jason Morgan has been a savior to women. He is a natural protector, quick thinker, and a fighter for what’s right. Jason Quartermaine never lost that part of himself, even after the car accident with his brother AJ (Sean Kanan), leading him to change his name from Quartermaine to another family name, Morgan.
At some point, Jason and Jagger had to put their pride and differences aside. This was necessary in order to work together to survive. Jagger was the muscle, while Jason was both the brains of the operation. Additionally, it’s apparent that both Jason and Jagger are strong and resourceful. Karen was resourceful in her own right, but definitely played the role of damsel in distress very well.
Dante Falconeri (Dominic Zamprogna) has left Port Charles to try and heal from PTSD. He has been ignoring letters from his mom, Olivia Falconeri (Lisa LoCicero), and his estranged wife, Lulu Spencer Falconeri (Emme Rylan) has moved on with Dustin Phillips (Mark Lawson). Dustin and Lulu’s frenemy, Brook Lynn Ashton Quartermaine (Amanda Setton) have history, and now that they are both in Port Charles, General Hospital rumors claim these two will rekindle an old flame, leaving Lulu out of the equation. That shouldn’t matter soon as there is fresh General Hospital news regarding Lulu’s great love, Dante.
General Hospital news and spoilers reveal GH’s Dominic Zamprogna days he is willing to enter into a contract with General Hospital and bring his character Dante Falconeri back home to his family.
General Hospital spoilers reveal, in the May 4th edition of Soaps In Depth, Zamorogna states, “Frank Valentini, (Executive Producer) knows I’m ready to come home,” Zamprogna tells SID, “And I’d be totally open to a contract. There’s so much potential with the character and the story right now. With everything they’ve done since Dante’s been gone, there are so many options and they’d all be fun to play.”
There we have it! Dominic Zamprogna is ready and has expressed his thoughts on bringing Dante back to Port Charlie’s to GH Executives. It’s only a matter of time before TPTB make a decision on the status of Zamprogna with the show. General Hospital Blog will keep fans up to date on any General Hospital news, regarding GH comings and goings, if and when Dante will make is way back.
