General Hospital’s Maurice Benard
Maurice Benard is a three-time Daytime winner for his role as Sonny Corinthos on ABC’s General Hospital. Benard joined the Soap Opera in August of 1993. Since then Port Charles has never been the same. Organized crime has become an ongoing problem on the local and even Federal level.
The Port Charles Police Department has their work cut out for them when it comes to PC’s most prominent mob boss. When he first arrive in 1993, Sonny was law enforcement’s number one priority. Today, the fact remains that Sonny gives the authorities a run for the money. He’s been arrested and detained, and even put on trial. But the PCPD and the Feds have yet to stick the landing.
It’s been a hot minute since we’ve seen Milo Giambetti, and fans have been asking what ever happened to him.
Milo’s most recent storyline had him pining over Lulu Spencer. She experienced a traumatic event when kidnapped by a Cassadine. Upon her return from Stavros Cassadine’s capture Lulu didn’t remember Dante and the rest of her family. In fact, she couldn’t even remember that she was married at all, or the love shared between herself and Dante Falconeri.
General Hospital recaps recall Lulu having spent some time with Milo in his apartment while she sorted all of this out. Even though Milo was in love with Lulu, he knew better than to pursue anything with a married woman. After that, he quit working for Sonny as his bodyguard, and left Port Charles.
In a recent issue of Soaps in Depth, General Hospital spoilers reveal that Drew Cheetwood will be reprising his role as Milo Giambetti, on August 14th. Milo have his sights set on a new lady… rumor has it that he has fallen for none other than Head Nurse at General Hospital, Epiphany Johnson (Sonya Eddy). Sonny (Maurice Benard) offers his ex-employee and current friend Milo, romantic advice.
General Hospital Head Writer, Ron Carlivati confirms via Twitter that Milo (Drew Cheetwood) will be back in PC, catching up with ex-boss, Sonny Corinthos. Cheetwood confirms via Twitter that he will be back at General Hospital for a few days this upcoming week.
Look for Max and Milo Giambetti this week on General Hospital!
It looks like Franco is up to some of his old tricks. He can blame the brain tumor all he wants for his actions in the past, but he won’t have an excuse for how he is about to betray Carly.
Ava and Franco have a past. The two were ex-lovers and recently, Ava led Franco to believe that Kiki was his daughter. Ava and Franco are far from being friends. She tried to kill im as a matter of fact, and ended up shooting Olivia Falconeri instead.
However, in this week’s turn of events, Franco will be assisting Ava in taking down Sonny. Ava asks him for his help and he obliges. Franco sneaks onto Carly’s laptop. Ava is hoping that he will be able to retrieve the recording that incriminates Sonny in the killing of AJ Quartermaine.
What will Carly do when she finds out Franco is sneaking behind her back to take Sonny down, with Ava nonetheless? Can she forgive Franco or will this lead her straight into Sonny’s arms (and/or bed)? Haha
As usual, the cops and detectives over at the PCPD have arrested and jailed the wrong man. Carlos is strongly connected to the Jerome crime family members Ava and Julian. He took orders from Julian and his job was to act out on those orders. Somewhere along the way Ava got her grips on Carlos and he and Ava went behind Julian’s back. Ava had convinced Carlos to try and take care of AJ Quartermaine. Once night at the Quartermaine mansion, Carlos arrived in a mask and attempted to take AJ out. The attempt failed when Luke and Tracy walked in and interrupted the operation and put some attack moves on the intruder. Carlos fled the scene and AJ was left alive.
AJ was now still alive and Ava was very angry. AJ was about to tell Sonny that Ava killed Connie so she needed him dead. You now what they say, if you want something done right you better do it yourself! And that’s exactly what Ava was about to do. In a plot to end AJ, AJ and Ava were together at Julian’s apartment. Sonny strolled in and saw the two and immediately thought Ava was the damsel in distress. He got so angry with AJ about Connie, just as AJ was about to tell him Ava was the one who killed her, Sonny shot him!
To hide her involvement in AJ’s (and Connie’s) murder, Ava blackmailed Carlos into taking the wrap. Ava threatened Sabrina and her baby’s life if Carlos didn’t tell Anna that he was the one who killed AJ.
Now that it is know by a few Port Charles residents that Sonny is the actual killer, when will Carlos go free? Carly, Franco, and Sonny have all heard the recording on AJ’s phone of Sonny shooting AJ Ava’s involvement in it all. Once that recording gets out (and we know it will), will it be all over for Sonny? Can what happen to Carlos be rectified?
Jeffrey Vincent Parise (Carlos Rivera) is due to start filing episodes of GH late this Summer. Carlos is expected to arrive on screen in PC early September.
General Hospital has an admirer. ESPN sports reporter and First Take Host, Stephen A. Smith is a long time General Hospital fan.
Stephen received an enormous surprise this morning when the iconic General Hospital star Maurice Benard (Sonny Corinthos) graced him with his presence on the set of the morning show First Take on ESPN.
Smith expressed his excitement of this morning’s event in a tweet. “I’m in HEAVEN. Haa” he tweeted.
Benard also sent out a tweet right before stepping onto the set and also some picture from the morning.
Check them out below!
Nothing in the world can ruin my day today. My man @MauriceBenardMB from General Hospital came on @ESPN_FirstTake today. I'm in HEAVEN. Haa
There is never a dull moment in the life of a high powered mod boss. It seems like every time he turns around there is another threat, another mob family out to get revenge, or take his territory, steal his latest love interest, or kidnap his kids. Sonny can never turn his back because there is always someone behind him waiting for that one moment where he is vulnerable.
One of the earliest of Sonny’s enemies on GH was his own Father in law. Lily’s father was a dangerous Puerto Rican crime Lord who eventually made the biggest mistake of his life. A car bomb that was actually meant for Sonny, ended up killing his own daughter, Lily who was pregnant at the time. After the death of his wife and unborn child, Sonny never forgave himself and this traumatic incident would shape Sonny Corinthos into the man he is today. Sonny was highly effected by the death of his wife which was meant for him. From then on, he constantly lives in fear that the ones he loves will end up getting hurt. This is why he left Brenda at the altar. Even in more recent times, with Kate/Connie, Sonny feared that the ones closest to him always get hurt, and he is usually right.
After killing AJ, then finding out Ava was the one who actually killed Connie and not AJ, Sonny has been under a lot of stress. The last thing he needs before he is done dealing with Ava and her pregnancy is more complications in his life. Apparently, there is a rumor that Sonny comes across an old Port Charles newspaper featuring the story of Lily getting killed. Why is this coming to the surface now, about 20 years after her death? Could Lily still be alive? Her son Juan has been back and forth to Port Charles from Puerto Rico a few times since his cousin Sabrina arrived. Currently, the two are in Puerto Rico and Juan is supporting his cousin while she grieves the loss of her baby boy. When Sabrina returns, will Juan come along with her? He may have a reason, and an agenda that involves Sonny.
What’s to come of Sonny coming across this paper? Weigh in with your thoughts and theories by commenting below.
You want to know what will be happening on this special day? Today marks General Hospital’s 51st anniversary and it will be loaded with General Hospital history. For starters, we will be able to take a stroll down Carly lane with the three actresses that have played the character over the years. Sarah Joy Brown originated the role in 1996,later to return to General Hospital in a much different role as Claudia, daughter of mobster Anthony Zacchara. Tamara Braun took over the role of Carly until the current actress, Laura Wright has become the Carly we know today. All three women are extremely talented and have made fans fall in love with Carly three times over. Executive Producer Frank Valentini weighs in on Carlypalooza by stating, “We like to try and take advantage of the history of the show, and in honoring the history of the show, we not only honor the characters, but the actors, We have come up with a fun way for the audience to get a chance to see Sarah and Tamara again.”
Valentini also talks about their strategy for celebrating the 51st anniversary as a whole. He explains, “We’re trying to make sure we mine the entire field of rich history that is GENERAL HOSPITAL as opposed to repeating some of things we’ve done. Instead of competing with ourselves, we didn’t want to repeat ourselves. The anniversary episode is really, really special, and there are many, many fun surprises for the audience and many nostalgic moments for them to enjoy.”
The entire anniversary month of April will be packed with history and excitement. Look for Maxie’s return to Port Charles and her encounter with a new guy named Levi. Monica is visited by loved ones, someone gets shot, and Luke’s lies are catching up with him. Don’t miss GH’s 51st anniversary month.
We have all been warned that today’s episode of GH is not to be missed! Tune in today for the 51st anniversary at 2PM Eastern on ABC!
It’s been a while since Elizabeth’s (Rebecca Herbst) love life was front and center. For many years she and Lucky stole the stage. After Lucky (Jonathan Jackson) left her and Port Charles, Liz has been looking for love and finding it in the wrong people (AJ- Sean Kanan). What I am thinking now is that Elizabeth may find herself in a new love triangle. After Lucky, she rekindled her old feelings for Nikolas (Tyler Christopher) but her feelings for AJ stood in their way. Now that she realizes she loves Nikolas, and their affair wasn’t just a pointless mistake, he has moved on with Britt (Kelly Thiebaud). I can’t help but wonder what Nikolas will do once the truth comes out about baby Ben. Once Nikolas knows that Britt stole his own sister Lulu’s baby, how would they ever get back from that? Can their relationship be repaired after such a betrayal? My guess is that he will turn to Elizabeth.
At the same time, Ric Lansing (Rick Hearst), Liz’s ex-husband and brother of mobster, Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) is back in town. Sonny isn’t the only one in that family with a dangerous reputation. Ric has committed his fair share of crimes including kidnapping a pregnant Carly and keeping her captive in a panic room- all the while Elizabeth was living in the same house without a clue. He has lied, cheated, and manipulated.
There are two very strong fan bases for Elizabeth and Nik and Elizabeth and Ric. It will be interesting to see where the writers will take this. If Elizabeth was presented with a choice of Nik or Ric, who do you think she should choose? Weigh in and leave comments below!
Things are getting pretty intense for the residents of Port Charles these days. With AJ just being shot, there are many people who are trying to figure out why and what exactly happened to him. Anna DeVane is hot on the case with suspects such as Julian and Sonny. Shawn, Duke, and Carly all know Sonny’s deep dark secret that he is the one who pulled the trigger, sending AJ to GH to fight for his life. Sonny has betrayed his son Michael as he promised him he wouldn’t hurt AJ. We all know that Ava is the one who had every intention on killing AJ, and Sonny just happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time resulting in a crime of passion. Ava has been behind many of the crimes in Port Charles as of late, including the murder of Connie Falconeri, and shooting Olivia Falconeri when she was aiming for Franco.
Head Writer, Ron Carlivati teases that things between Sonny and Ava are going to get a lot crazier now that the two of them share this secret about AJ. However, Executive Producer, Frank Valentini mentioned that it will be a long while before Sonny ever figures out that Ava is actually the one who killed Connie, and not AJ.
What would you like to see happen with Sonny and Ava? Leave your comments below!
Sonny wants to take down Julian Jerome’s operation. Since he can’t target Julian directly, because he is little Daniel Morgan’s life line, he has to go after his organization, starting with Carlos Rivera. Sonny asked his associates to do some digging and find out who Carlos Rivera exactly is. When Sonny finds out he is a relative of his late wife Lily Rivera (Lilly Melgar), will this put a wrench in his plans to take Carlos out? Will this discovery make peace between Sonny and Carlos or start a brand new war?
Michael convinced his Father to make a last decision involving him and Connie. He told him not to do anything that he can’t live with. Ultimately. Michael convinced Sonny to attend Connie’s memorial service.
Things are looking pretty intense and Sonny’s emotions are running high.
How do you think he will handle himself at the funeral?
