The name, Lucky Spencer, needs no introduction in the soap opera fandom. Lucky is an iconic character, almost like daytime drama royalty. His parents are none other than Lucas Lorenzo Spencer (Anthony Geary), and Laura Spencer (Genie Francis).
Lucky (Jonathan Jackson) didn’t just ride the coattails of his legendary parents; he and Elizabeth Webber (Rebecca Herbst) made quite a love story .themselves, following in Luke and Laura’s infamous love.
General Hospital news reports reveal a ew want podcast interview with Jackson, discussing his role as Lucky Spencer on General Hospital. Jackson joined the cast in 1993 as Luke and Laura’s son. He exited the role in 1999, but returned in 2009-2011. His strong rows with the people of Port Charles left opportunity for his return visit in 2015.
General Hospital news reports state Jackson, just like his character, Lucky, moved to Ireland with his family. Although he is no longer living in LA, GH spoilers reveal he is willing to return.
General Hospital spoilers reveal Jackson’s interview left much to the imagination after he confirmed he is open to a return to GH. According to Dishing With Digest, JJ said to fans, “I always had it in my mind to come back periodically, so I’m always open to that.”
Now that Elizabeth has been consistently unlucky ???? in love, and she just lost her husband, Franco Baldwin (Roger Howarth), it would seem like the perfect time to bring a little “Luck” Elizabeth’s way.
We apologize if we are in denial or just plain hopeful. But in our honest opinion, the likelihood of General Hospital killing off the daughter of Luke and Laura Spencer (Anthony Geary, Genie Francis) is pretty slim.
It’s true that General Hospital news reports have revealed that actress, Emme Rylan, who has played Lulu Spencer Falconeri since 2013, has been let go from the role. Rylan stepped in and took over for Julie Marie Berman.
General Hospital spoilers suggest Lulu will not die, and the character will most likely not be recast. General Hospital rumors claim Lulu will slip into a coma, thus making it possible for the character to remain off screen, but also leave the door open for her return. Dominic Zamprogna has recently returned to the canvas. Upon his return, GH and Lante (Lulu and Dante) fans were we hopeful for a reunion.
General Hospital news confirmed Rylan was let go from the daytime drama, but it was never disclosed whether or not the character would die off the soap, or if she will be recast with another actress.
General Hospital spoilers hint that Lulu will awaken in about a year based on Emme Rylan’s previous statement regarding taking time to travel around the country with her family. GH rumors claim Lulu will awaken from her coma in about a year. It’s possible the executives at GH wrote Rylan out as Lulu only temporarily as part of this climactic mob related story line which not only involves her father in law, Sonny Corinthos,(Maurice Benard) but it’s become very personal between her own mother, Laura Spencer (Genie Francis) and Cyrus Renault (Jeff Kober) as well.
Helena’s will reading was significantly short of satisfying. Basically, we don’t know the meaning of her oh-so-crytpic mysterious and evil distributions to those closest to the Cassadine family.
Over time, Helena has held a special place in her heart, so to speak, for the Spencer family. Especially for Luke (Tony Geary) and Laura (Genie Francis). That said, her “gift” to Laura is probably the most intriguing and mysterious of them all. Evidently, Helena gave Laura a black, uniquely shaped key. And apparently it’s the “key to what Laura has loved… and LOST!” Creepy, right?
What could that possibly mean? Well, GH fans had a couple of ideas. General Hospital rumors started swirling ever since Helena’s bombshells. Some GH rumors claim that it could be Luke. After all, he’s something that Laura has loved and lost. Will Anthony Geary be make a cameo comeback after last year’s retirement? Additionally, other rumors suggest that Jonathan Jackson returns as Lucky Spencer for a brief time. Although she loves Lucky, she hasn’t actually “lost” him. He’s simply not living in Port Charles.
What do you think Helena meant by this gift to Laura Spencer? Is Anythony Geary or Jonathan Jackson returning to GH?
It all makes perfect sense really. It was nothing the General Hospital writing team had planned on doing, but to them, and now to the fans, it completely makes sense in regard to Luke Spencer’s (Tony Geary) exit story. However, the lasting impact on resurrecting Elizabeth Webber (Rebecca Herbst) and Jason Morgan’s (Billy Miler) son, Jake, will have a lasting impact on the people of Port Charles as a whole.
In an interview with Soap Opera Digest, General Hospital Head Writer, Ron Carlivati explains why they decided to bring little Jake back from the dead. He said, “It really was not something we were planning to do.”
Luke Spencer’s exist story had to be one for the books. Since Luke was the one who actually hit little Jake and caused his “death,” the writing team felt this was the perfect way to make Luke and Laura’s (Genie Francis) adventure to be as memorable as possible, while also leaving a great story for the rest of the town, even after Luke leaves the canvas.With all that is going on with Sam and Jason, Elizabeth and Jason (Jake), and Liz and Nikolas, having Jake be alive will stir the pot for many story lines.
For all the fans that have questioned little Jake’s organ donation, Carlivati explains, “We had to pull out a bag of tricks, and go to our go-to person, Helena Cassadine, for help, and made it work.”
So what does this mean for Elizabeth and Jake Doe? Sam and Jake (Jason)?…
Elizabeth is still hiding Jake’s true identity from him. Knowing that he is actually Jason Morgan, Liz is depriving the man she claims to love of his real wife, Sam (Kelly Monaco), and his son, Danny Morgan. General Hospital rumors speculated that Lucky Spencer (Jonathan Jackson), little Jake’s adoptive father, is on his way to inform Elizabeth of the news regarding their son. Once Liz finds out that Jake, her son with Jason is actually alive, will she finally tell Jake Doe that he is actually Jason? We think so. Judging from Liz’s past behaviors, it isn’t enough right now that Jason has a wife and son out there, but once she finds out THEIR son is alive, her whole tune is likely to change. In our opinion, we predict that Elizabeth will want the real Jason Morgan to get to know their son, little Jake and will ponder her decision to finally come clean, now that she too has a family again with Jason.
We want to know where you think this story will lead. Share this post and comment with your thoughts and theories.
Luke and Laura are legends, but they would be nothing without the fire and chemistry between the two people who have portrayed them for over 3 decades. Tony Geary and Genie Francis came together unexpectedly to make television magic.
In an interview with Paolo Presta for his show, A Spoonful of Paolo, General Hospital’s Anthony Geary (Lucas Lorenzo Spencer), touches on what it was like to work with certain stars over the years. “Her husky voice drove me crazy. I thought she was hot stuff.” That is a statement Geary made about Demi Moore, who played Jackie Templeton on GH. He referred to another star, Roseanne Barr as, “A tough lady,” and went on to tell Paolo that he asked her to marry him when they met.
What Tony Geary said about his long time friend and co-star Genie Francis will melt your heart. His statement regarding Genie, and his relationship with her put their entire existence ans Luke and Laura into perspective. Geary tells Paolo, “Her talent was spectacular, and is spectacular. Her vulnerability, her ability to use her emotional range, is unsurpassed. It’s hard to even go there because there’s so much…” As if THAT wasn’t amazing enough, Geary proceeded to say, “Our artistic souls met somewhere in outer space. In the early days, I felt very protective of her, which I think fed the relationship of Luke and Laura.”
It’s apparent that Tony Geary and Genie Francis have an undeniable chemistry and bond that compares to nothing else we have seen on television. Their off screen admiration for one another shaped the dynamic of their characters, Luke and Laura.
As Anthony Geary prepares to leave General Hospital after 37 years, he told Paolo Presta that it will be the people he will miss the most.
Luke and Laura’s adventure has barely just begun… They have to rescue Luke’s sons, Ethan Lovett and Lucky Spencer, but that doesn’t look like it will be the end of their quest. Who is behind all this drama anyway? What person in General Hospital history would want both Luke and Laura on a wild goose chase, making them suffer in fear for their children?
Luke, Laura, Lucky, and Ethan, get closer to the truth as the Summer progresses.
Remember, Anthony Geary’s last air date as Luke Spencer is July 27h. That being said, we would think it is safe to assume that this mystery will be solved by that date.
Who do you think has taken Ethan and Lucky? Could Helena be behind all that is evil when it comes to the Spencer family?
Check out what is to come for the residents of Port Charles. Here is a sneak peak of what will be poppin’ this Fourth of July and beyond with your favorite characters and couples.
Check out how Sam and Patrick, Liz and Jake, and many more will be spending this holiday, and further into Summer!
General Hospital co-stars and fans of Tony Geary have been preparing for his big farewell from General Hospital, as he is retiring from the show. His character, Luke Spencer is involved in his last adventure with his great love, Laura (Genie Francis). Everyone is tangled up in this story line as Luke and Laura set out to save their son Lucky (Jonathan Jackson). Jennifer Smith (Holly Gagnier) was contacted to lure Luke and Laura, and mke them aware that Lucky has been captured. We will soon be seeing Holly Sutton (Emma Samms) and Ethan Lovett (Nathan Parsons) involved. Lulu (Emme Rylan) is currently in Port Charles awaiting any information on her brother. Tracy (Jane Elliot) was left broken hearted, in order for Luke to get his son back before it’s too late.
This story will mark Tony Geary’s last air date on General Hospital. That date has now been revealed as July 27th, 2015.
We have less than one month left with the iconic character Luke, and legendary actor Tony Geary on our favorite soap. Geary is excited to begin a new chapter in his life, and we at General Hospital Blog will miss him and wish him all the best.
Don’t miss a beat of this sizzling how drama this Summer on General Hospital!
Check out the video clip below of Tony’s last day on the set of General Hospital!
We all knew this day was coming, but it has really crept up on us all rather quickly. A few months back, General Hospital Blog shared the news that Anthony Geary had announces his retirement, after over 3 decades on the daytime drama, General Hospital. His character Luke Spencer is legendary to say the least. Geary and co-star Genie Francis made history as the infamous Luke and Laura.
Tuesday, June 22nd, Anthony Geary taped his very last seen as Lucas Lorenzo Spencer. Luke will be departing Port Charles later this Summer. It was an emotional goodbye, as his friends and cast mates bid him farewell after 37 years in the iconic role. Geary was surrounded by GH stars including Finola Hughes (Anna Devane), Leslie Charleson (Monica Quartermaine), Lynn Herring (Lucy Coe), Kristina Wagner (Felicia Jones), Kin Shriner (Scotty Baldwin), and more. At the farewell, friend Maurice Benard told Geary, “Not having you here is going to be sad for me.”
Anthony Geary has won 8 Daytime Emmy Awards for his role as Luke Spencer. He has called GH his home for 37 climactic years.
Leaving General Hospital is bitter sweet for Geary. Although it’s sad to say goodbye, he looks forward to what the future holds for his personal life and his career. Geary tells Entertainment Weekly, “I’m excited to raise the curtain on act 3, to reinvent myself in my new home to pursue whatever opportunity there may be. It’s an exciting prospect to me. They’ve done a wonderful job of wrapping up the character. So this seems like the ideal time to go.”
As Geary walks away from the Daytime genre, he leaves with words of hope and encouragement for the industry and fans. In regard to the survival of daytime soaps, and the stir up involving the cancellation of One Life to Live and All My Children, Geary tells EW, “It was scary there for two or three years when every thing was being cancelled. The network thought that talk shows should take over because people weren’t going to be interested in soaps. But there has been a resurgence and I think that’s hopeful sign. I don’t believe it’s the end of the medium. Serialization is a great way to tell stories.”
Anthony Geary and Luke Spencer will be greatly missed by us at General Hospital Blog. Geary is an extremely talented actor, and Luke will never be forgotten. We wish him the absolute best in everything that comes his way going forward. It is sad to say goodbye, but there is a warm place in our hearts knowing that he gave so much to the industry for so long. Thank you Anthony Geary! We love you!
“Not-to-be-missed like, motion picture-level work. They’re definitely scenes that nobody should miss.” That is what Genie Francis told The Wrap in regard to the scenes that have been filmed between Jonathan Jackson and Tony Geary.
In an interview with The Wrap, General Hospital star Genie Francis discloses her feelings about returning to work, her disappointments, and encourages the audience to make sure they watch this Summer as Luke says goodbye to Port Charles.
Genie Francis reveals that she will be on into the Fall, even after Tony’s exit. She explains that although she wasn’t able to film a one on one interaction with her TV son Lucky Spencer, she did indeed tape scenes with Jackson and Geary.
As far as what the future holds for Laura Spencer, Francis explains that she would love to see her character remarry. She would love for her to find happiness again at her age, and Genie believes that women her age would related to that type of story line.
