On September 23, General Hospital Blog reported that actor Maurice Benard who has played Port Charles top dog when it comes to the mob- and women, Sonny Corinthos, since 1993, may be leaving General Hospital to pursue other opportunities. According to Soaps in Depth magazine, it was noted that Benard had not yet signed a contract with ABC’s General Hospital to renew his current status with the show.
However, in a brief conversation with fans, Maurice had a different tune in regard to his plans for his future at General Hospital.
Sonny Corinthos fans can sleep easier tonight, knowing that the talented actor will be staying at General Hospital, a place that he calls, “home.” Benard will manage to stay at GH while expanding his horizons and working on other projects. His most recent project, The Ghost and the Whale, will be available for pre-order very soon.
Check out his tweet below!
.@reneem38@MBtvNews I LOVE my home of General Hospital and I LOVE making movies. I can do both. What do you think?
Back in the Summer, fans were warned that they would not be seeing any resolution to the Luke Spencer/Fake Luke mystery until Fall. It was noted that actor Tony Geary was out on medical leave after undergoing two back surgeries. He has been recuperating in Amsterdam, and set to return soon. It is that time, October, 2014, that we were promised to see Luke back on our screens. With news of Hugo Naperi who played Ned Ashton’s Father, Larry Ashton returning to the set of General Hospital, we can’t help but look for a connection between Napier’s character, and the Fluke story line. His past involvement with Tracy Quartermaine (Jane Elliot) and his desire to take over ELQ leads fans to believe that Larry Ashton will be very much involved with Tracy, Ned (Wally Kurth), and the story that has kept fans in the dark for several months… who is the fake Luke Spencer?
Take a look at the photo comparison that has been posted. Is it just a mere coincidence, and will Larry Ashton returning to General Hospital as himself, or will he be in the form of a man we like to call, Lucas Lorenzo Spencer?
It has been a long time since the residents of Port Charles have seen this man’s face. It has been confirmed that the father of Ned Ashton (Wally Kurth), Larry Ashton, played by Hugo Napier will be returning to the canvas very soon. Tracy Quartermaine (Jane Elliot) and her son Ned are taken by surprise when Larry returns to PC.
Hugo Napier stepped onto the GH canvas back in 1988. Back then, he was out for treasure and Tracy was the same black mailing money woman she is today. She blackmailed the father of her son to give her and Ned a piece of the pie when he had his hands on the treasure. Unfortunately, things didn’t work out the way Ashton planned and he left town.
In 1991, Larry Ashton returned to Port Charles and work along side Harlan Barrett and Cesar Faison. Needless to say, they were up to no good. Tracy was a pawn in their game of trying to take over ELQ. Paul Hornsby was to marry Tracy in order to gain control of the Quartermaine family company. Fortunately for the Quartermaine’s, their plan was unsuccessful.
General Hospital spoilers reveal that Hugo Napier will be returning to General Hospital to reprise his role as Larry Ashton. As if Tracy didn’t have enough going on in her life right now as she is trying to figure out what is going on with her current husband, or the man she thinks is her husband, Luke (not Luke) Spencer, Larry Ashton decides to stroll on in.
With such ties to Cesar Faison and Harlan Barrett, could Larry Ashton have something to do with fake Luke?
It is uncertain at this time as to when Larry Ashton will make his debut in Port Charles. General Hospital Blog will keep fans updated on Hugo Napier’s status with General Hospital.
Today on General Hospital, ex-Y&R star Billy Miller will make his debut in Port Charles as Sonny’s right hand man, Jason Morgan. Husband of Samantha Morgan, Father to Danny, son of Monica and Alan Quartermaine, and loved by many, Jason will finally be back in Port Charles after almost two years of being gone. Jason’s friends and family have believed that he has been dead for almost two years time. Long time friend, Robin Scorpio Drake is the only one (other than the creepy Cassadines and villains involved) who knows Jason is alive.
There is so much hype circulating in the media due to the anticipation of this character’s return. Social media sites are all abuzz regarding this extremely exciting time for GH and Jason Morgan fans. One social media route that fans use tremendously to discuss General Hospital is Twitter. From Executive Producer Frank Valentini, to actors and actresses such as Kirsten Storms (Maxie Jones), Nancy Lee Grahn (Alexis Davis), Jason Thompson (Patrick Drake), Ian Buchanan (Duke Lavery), John J. York (Mac Scorpio) to name a few, to Head Writer, Ron Carlivati, fans and GH stars are going back and forth engaging is fun discussions relating to General Hospital. Many of the GH cast have special dates and times where fans can live tweet using the hashtag #askGH. This allows fans to ask questions to their favorite stars, and in turn those stars show their appreciation of fan’s support by taking time out to talk with them online.
Fans have been rallying for the new Jason Morgan to join twitter so that he can engage in conversation with his supporting fans. Billy Miller has made it clear that he will not be joining the social media site, Twitter.
To each their own, and social media is not for everyone. Do you support Billy and his decision to keep his distance from the social media craze?
Check out the photo below with a very blunt statement from Billy Miller.
As fans, what do you think and feel about Billy Miller’s stance on Twitter?
General Hospital’s ex-Jason Morgan, and Y&R’s current Dylan McAvoy, Steve Burton has an extremely large fan base. Fans turned to Facebook to ask a very controversial question. The controversy that has become of the Steve Burton, Billy Miller, General Hospital, and The Young and the Restless saga has been like none other in soap opera history. Fans across the board and with opposite opinions have been taking part in this real life soap opera drama.
With the news of Billy Miller debuting as Jason Morgan, TODAY on General Hospital, fans are all hyped up on this topic. Steve Burton’s fan facebook page (over 25,000 LIKES including Michael Fairman), wants to know something very important… “Who is better: Dylan McAvoy or Jason Morgan?”
If you visit Steve Burton’s fan Facebook page, you will see the question posted there. There you will also the the overwhelming response all pointing to Jason Morgan. Will this consensus influence Steve’s career decision in the future? When his AND Billy’s contracts are up with their current shows and networks, will Steve decide to take fan’s advice and once again become Daytime’s most popular man as of late?
The moment General Hospital fans across the country have been waiting for, Jason Morgan is HOME! After all the below the neck shots, and other actors playing this role while we wait for Billy’s arrival, it is safe to say that today on General Hospital, Billy Miller will air for the first time as legendary Jason Morgan.
Ron Carlivati, General Hospital’s Head Writer, confirmed via Twitter, that Miller will air on Wednesday, October 1st!
Check out this witty tweet. What a jokester that Ron Carlivati is!
Maurice Benard joined the cast of General Hospital in August of 1993 as Michael Sonny Corinthos. He has been a fan favorite and front and center for over tow- almost three decades. Some would say that General Hospital would not be what it is today without the character of Sonny Corinthos and the amazingly talented actor, Maurice Benard, who portrays him. There is some recent General Hospital news that has fans worried about the future of their favorite character, Sonny Corinthos. For a few months now General Hospital rumors have been indicating that Maurice Benard will be taking 6 months off of General Hospital as Port Charles’ most popular mob boss, Sonny Corinthos.
In the newest edition of ABC Soaps in Depth Magazine, the September 29th issue, it has been revealed that Maurice Benard’s contract is due to be up very soon and the actor has not yet re-signed. Benard is considering leaving GH to work on other projects. The actor told Soaps in Depth, “I take the contract day to day. I’m 100% happy at GH, I love Ron and Frank, but I want to do other things.”
It would be a sad time for General Hospital is Maurice Benard left the show. He has been an iconic character for so long that it is uncertain how the rest of the show that has been built around the mob would hold up in this situation.
Recent General Hospital rumors speculate that Sonny will go to jail for the murder of AJ Quartermaine, and that we will not see Sonny for about six months.
General Hospital Blog will keep you posted on this topic and update with any news that confirms the status of Maurice Benard’s contract with General Hospital.
Let us know your thoughts on the possible departure of the legendary Maurice Benard as Sonny Corinthos.
Please scroll if you want to know about possible upcoming story lines involving this super couple and their supporting characters.
The moment we all have been waiting for is practically right here in front of us. After months of going back and forth with the news regarding Billy Miller replacing Steve Burton as the iconic Jason Morgan, we now know that all the rumors have been put to bed and the fact is that JASON IS HERE! Billy Miller IS the new Jason Morgan and he is coming… SOON.
When all the dust settles and Jason finds his way back to Port Charles, he will be encountering many of his loved ones. Jason Morgan is the most loyal person the town of Port Charles has ever known. He is an extremely good friend and devoted husband and right hand man. From Carly (Laura Wright) to Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst), and from Sonny (Maurice Benard) to Michael (Chad Duell), Jason has developed and maintained strong bonds with his friends and family. However, no bond is stronger than that of The Phoenix and The Dragon. That bond he shares is with his wife, Samantha Morgan (Kelly Monaco).
General Hospital rumors suggest that fans will be in for a treat come early 2015. It looks as though General Hospital is headed down the road to give fans a JaSam reunion. Although it won’t be that cut and dry. Rumor has it that Sam’s father, Julian Jerome (William DeVry), doesn’t approve of his daughter’s soul mate and husband, Jason Morgan. It has been speculated that Julian will try and keep Sam and Jason apart. Will JaSam prevail? We know that their love is stronger than anything. Do you think Jason and Sam can find their way back to one another and have a happy ending with baby Danny?
It has been confirmed that one of General Hospital’s most feared villains will be returning to the canvas later this Fall! Sebastian Roche is returning to General Hospital to reprise his role as the bad boy brother of Jasper Jacks. Jerry Jacks has always been the black sheep of the Jacks family, causing disappointment and heartache to his Mother, Father, and brother.
It has been said that Roche’s first scenes will be with Constance Towers (Helena Cassadine), Kathleen Gati (Dr. Obrecht), and Donna Mills (Madeline Reeves).
In upcoming potential story lines, it has been suspected that Helena Cassadine will have a task for Jerry Jacks in regard to Fluke.
Jerry Jacks owes Ava and Julian Jerome for saving his life the night that He held Bobbie Spencer hostage on the roof of the Metro Court. Luke Spencer saved her life… what will happen to Luke now that Jerry is back?
Sebastian Roche started taping scenes last week, September 16th, at Prospect Studio.
Keep watching General Hospital for more exciting drama this Fall!
General Hospital’s Teresa Castillo (Sabrina Santiago) has recently returned to work after being on maternity leave this past Summer. She and her husband, Shane Aaron welcomed their first baby, Victoria, on May 29th, 2014. When her character Sabrina Santiago left Port Charles, she went to Puerto Rico to be with her cousin Juan Santiago (Michael Saucedo) and the rest of her family to aide in the grieving process after losing her infant son, Gabriel. While she was away, Dr. Patrick Drake (Jason Thompson), the father of Sabrina’s baby, did some investigating with P.I. pal, Samantha Morgan (Kelly Monaco). They set out to find answers to who drove the car off the road, causing Sabrina to go into premature labor and ultimately the death of her baby boy. When Sabrina returned, Patrick had some answers for her regarding the crash, as did her ex-fiance Carlos Rivera (Jeffrey Vincent Parise). When Sabrina went to visit Carlos in jail, he revealed to her that he thinks Ava Jerome (Maura West) was the one who put Rafe (Jimmy Deshler) up to running them off the road.
Sabrina has a new personality since she has been back to Port Charles. After learning from Patrick that someone was deliberately trying to hurt them, and Carlos telling her that Ava was involved, Sabrina has a one track mind on revenge. Since she thinks that Ava is the one who told Rafe to cause the accident, Sabrina wants revenge on Ava and her unborn child. She is headed down a dark path, and acting like a completely different person. What does this mean for Sabrina’s future?
General Hospital Rumors say that this change in character is leading her right out of Port Charles. It has been rumored that actress Teresa Castillo will be leaving General Hospital, and this new story line with Sabrina is just the way the writers are going to prepare for her exit.
General Hospital Blog will keep fans updated with any information regarding the possible exit of Teresa Castillo. At this point there as been no confirmation of this news.
