General Hospital Ins and Outs and Summer Recast!

There will be a lot of characters walking in and out of Port Charles this Summer on General Hospital. General Hospital Blog has previously reported that Jeffrey Vincent Parise (Carlos Rivera) is OUT, and it doesn’t look like he will be returning. Sean Blakemore is also on his way out at GH as Sonny’s enforcer, Shawn Butler. In the midst of his legal troubles, and baby mama drama with Jordan (Vinessa Antoine), Shawn will be leaving Port Charles, will he take his son TJ with him?

Finola Hughes will be off for the Summer as Anna Devane will leave Port Charles since the death of Duke Lavery (Ian Buchanan). Ian Buchanan has been out at GH since early May.

Lisa LoCicero will be on maternity leave for the majority of this Summer. Olivia and Ned will exit PC, as Wally Kurth has landed a role on Days of Our Lives.

Tony Geary is set to return to GH this Summer so that Luke Spencer can say goodbye to his loved ones in Port Charles. Geary is retiring for good, but we have good news that has confirmed Genie Francis will return as Laura Spencer for Geary’s exit. GH rumors have speculated that more GH alum will be returning to the canvas for Luke’s big goodbye. Jonathan Jackson who has played Lucky Spencer on GH, is currently on ABC’s Nashville. While Nashville is on Summer hiatus, it is highly possible that we will see Lucky return to Port Charles to see his dad, Luke, off.

General Hospital rumors have teased with one particular possibility for quite a while. Fans have been up in arms when it comes to Robin Scorpio Drake. Some want her back, some want her to stay gone, and others are willing to accept a recast. Although a recast of a fan favorite has been done in the past (Billy Miller taking Stave Burton’s place as Jason Morgan), it’s highly unlikely that Kimberly McCullough, who originated the character Robin will be recast. McCullough’s status with General Hospital remains unknown. However, there are a couple other possibilities for a Summer recast. Some claim that bringing Liz Webber’s sister, Sarah back to Port Charles is in the works, and since ABC’s fan February contest, social media has been buzzing that Serena Baldwin will make a return.

General Hospital Spoilers: Ian Buchanan OUT, But Will Duke Lavery Die?

Previously, General Hospital Blog reported that long time GH vet, Ian Buchanan is leaving General Hospital. Ian Buchanan made the annoucement to fans through social media. GH fans, especially fans od Duke and Anna are saddened by the news of his departure.

General Hospital spoilers reveal that during the Nurses Ball, a mob war is going to break out, and Duke is caught in the crossfire. It has been rumored that this mob hit is an attempted hit, but also that Sonny wonders who is responsible for the death of his friend and business man. With that information, GH rumors have surfaced, claiming that the “attempted” mob hit will be Duke’s and everyone will think he has died. We can hope right?

News of the talented actress’ arrival to PC came with much excitement as well has many questions regarding the story line with Jason Morgan (Billy Miller) and Sam Morgan (Kelly Monaco). JaSam fans were up in arms because along with the knowledge that Rebecca Budig would be joining the cast of GH was a brief summary of who she would be playing. Rebecca currently plays a woman that has claimed to be Jake Doe’s (Jason) wife, Hayden. This didn’t sit well with fans of the super couple because this woman would be yet another set back to the long awaited JaSam reunion.

If the recent General Hospital rumors are true, JaSam fans can have a bit of relief that this crazy story of Hayden pretneding to be Jake’s wife. GH rumors claim that Rebecca Budig has just taped her last scenes and the character she portrays is on her way out of Port Charles.

If Hayden is on her way out, we are one step closer to Jake finding out the truth and to a Jason and Sam reunion. Happy dance!
