Let the Jason Morgan effect ripple through the entire city of Port Charles! There isn’t much that this man won’t impact upon his big return. Steve Burton’s highly anticipated GH return will be here in a flash. Before we know it, all the feels will come rushing back as we see Burton portray the iconic Jason Morgan.
Ever since January 4th, GH rumors surrounding Jason’s shocking return swirl around social media. Various theories about who Jason is, loves, and even works for flood media outlets. Reportedly, Steve Burton sets the record straight on the latest and biggest GH rumors.
Jason Morgan’s love interest is a huge topic of conversation. Prior to his presumed demise, Jason was smitten with the now late Dr. Britt Westbourne. Upon his return Jason will eventually learn that Britt died at the hand of the hook killer. Meanwhile, General Hospital spoilers and rumors tease that an injured Jason shows up at Elizabeth’s doorstep.
According to GH rumors, Elizabeth hides Jason from Finn (Michael Easton)… and the rest of Port Charles. With danger lurking at every corner, Port Charles is a mob-war zone. It’s possible that Jason can’t risk being seen and turns to his old flame and mother of his son Jake.
If GH rumors are true and Jason shows up at Liz’s door, will he ask her to keep it a secret? And how will she feel about lying to Finn?
The excitement keeps on coming as we coast toward Steve Burton’s return as Jason Morgan. With less than a month to go, anticipate among GH fans grows.
Reportedly, Steve Burton left General Hospital in November of 2021. As past GH News reports recall, Burton was let go from the daytime drama upon violating the Covid vaccine mandate that was in place at the time.
Here we are a few years later and Steve Burton has returned to the set of General Hospital. Thankfully, General Hospital’s 60th anniversary celebration brought GH fans a miracle. That’s when ABC’s GH announced Steve Burton’s big return. Kelly Monaco, Laura Wright, and Steve Burton delivered the news in prime time.
Without a doubt, the announcement increased fan engagement significantly. In my honest opinion, Burton’s return could be the most anticipated comeback in all of Soap Opera history. Ever since January 4 announcement, GH fans have taken to social media to share ideas and theories about Jason’s big return. According to recent GH spoilers, Bradford Anderson and Steve Burton dropped some hints in their podcast, The Daily Drama.
Steve Burton Reveals Jason’s Wardrobe Details
General Hospital spoilers share that Steve Burton revealed Jason’s wardrobe details to Anderson in a recent podcast episode. Bradford asked his friend about Jason‘s wardrobe, in which Burton teasingly replied, “You don’t worry about that. you don’t worry about the color palette the color palette gonna stay the same buddy, just do you know.”
Steve’s return has stirred up many GH rumors regarding Jason’s return. And Steve’s recent comment leads to a major hint. If Jason‘s wardrobe color palette stays the same, does that mean he returns as Jason Morgan through and through?
As one of the most highly anticipated comeback in General Hospital history, Steve Burton’s return has GH fans at the edge of their seat. Last week General Hospital Blog helped spread that word that Burton was back filming at Prospect Studios. But at the time an official air date hadn’t been released.

A recent message to fans reveals when Jason Morgan makes his on-screen return. In a recent Instagram video, Steve shared a behind the scenes look inside Port Charles’s favorite gym, Volonino’s. you can see Steve in Port Charles as Jason Morgan on March 4th!
When we think of Jason Morgan we often think of Sonny’s right hand man. Carly Corinthos Spencer’s best friend, a biological Quartermaine, and even Sam’s true love.
According to General Hospital history, Jason Quartermaine changed forever after the accident in the early 1990s. Since then he’s been Mr. Predictable, and as loyal as man’s best friend. The Jason Morgan we know loves his family and vows to protect them with his life.
General Hospital spoilers and rumors suggest that a whole new Jason lands back in Port Charles. Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) and the rest of Jason’s loved ones believe that he’s dead after fallen rock and debris covered him. So, when they discover that he’s actually alive we’d expect a happy reunion. However, GH rumors tease that we’ve been there and done that. What’s that’s going on with Sonny and Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) seems to be all over the place. There’s a Cassadine connection, as well as Cyrus Renault (Jeff Kober) and of course Mr. Brennan (Charles Mesure) have their hand in this too. But what ties them all together?
Is Jason Sonny’s Enemy?
GH news reports confirm that Steve Burton reported back to Prospect Studios this morning as he begins to film his role as Jason Morgan. While rumors heavily suspect that Jason’s been brainwashed, it’s possible that he is on the wrong side involuntarily. Could Jason Morgan be involved with Pikeman and act as Sonny’s enemy instead of his loyal best friend?
Last week’s General Hospital brought the shock factor to its audience on many different levels. Obviously Spencer and Esme made us gasp, Avery Pohl’s unexpected exit, Nikolas and Ace’s return to Laura, and more contributed to the ultimately shocking storylines.
General Hospital recaps highlight Spencer and Trina’s life or death situation. Their families came together to help rescue them from Esme Prince. While it looks like Esme and Spencer are swimming with the fishies, GH news reports confirm that Nicholas Alexander Chavez will return as Spencer, but Avery Pohl’s exit is indefinite. Now Trina is traumatized after the event and losing Spencer. To be honest, I’m traumatized too lol. I want Esme back! It still boggles my mind that GH took this direction. But that’s for another post at another time.
Anna’s Taken Aback By Jagger
Meanwhile, Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) and Jordan Ashford (Tanisha Harper) engage in their own life threatening drama. The two find themselves in an FBI ambush as they try to crack a case of their own. That’s when Jagger showed up. General Hospital spoilers reveal that a blast from the past has come back. Those who watched GH in the early 90s know exactly who Jagger Cates is. However, anyone would be confused and shocked by this because todays Jagger isn’t the man who made the role an iconic piece of American culture and Soap Opera history.
According to GH news reports, Jagger was recast with actor Adam Harrington. While Antonio Sabàto Jr. helped create the role over 30 years ago, it’s been reported that Sabato Jr. was not asked to reprise the ever-popular the role. Now, the actor has come out to speak on the subject.
In a now-deleted Instagram video, Sabato Jr. addressed a statement about Jagger’s recent recasting. “I’m being bombarded with a lot of questions about this General Hospital thing. You need to know the truth from me and you need to know the only truth about what’s going on.”
Antonio Sabato Jr. Address Jagger Recast
There’s no denying that Antonio Sabato Jr.’s role as Jagger Cates took the GH fandom by storm in the early 1990s. Certainly, his face became recognizable across the world as General Hospital fans tuned in to see what’s next. Antonio addressed the early starved of the character, and Jagger’s worldly popularity. “At the beginning of my career, I started on a character that I truly, truly adore, that I created with Wendy Riche, the executive producer, and an amazing team of writers at General Hospital back in 1992. I was on General Hospital from 92 to 94, playing a character by the name of John “Jagger” Cates.
Jagger Cates Popularity
I’ve been asked by the fans by millions all over the world, not just in America and in North America, but all over the world, about coming back to General Hospital for 30 years. Now, like I said, I’m doing very well. I’m not begging to go back on the show. This is not about that. I have many careers. I’m still acting very well. I have a movie coming out. I have a lot of things coming out and I’m very proud of.”
Reflecting on his popularity as Jagger, and the irony that he was never asked to return, Sabato stated, “I’ve never been asked to come back on General Hospital for 30 years. The producers at General Hospital, ABC, and Disney, they know where to find me. They know where I am. The fans always ask me every single day, ‘Are you going back to General Hospital?”
Adam Harrington Steps In as Jagger Recast
Fast forward to this week. It’s 2024 and has been 30 years since Sabato Jr. played the iconic Jagger Cates. Suddenly, the news hit fans and Antonio like a brick. He was bombarded with questions from fans, asking about the recent GH casting. That’s when Antonio commented on Jagger’s revival, and the fact that he wasn’t asked to step back into the role. Instead, GH hired Adam Harrington to take over as the memorable Cates.
“They don’t even call him ‘Jagger’. They call him ‘John’ because they know that the character’s only been played by me ’cause it’s part of who I am. It’s my life. It’s a character that is really a big part of, of my soul that I dedicated my life. And that’s what it turned out to be. I gave everything I have to that character and I would still do. So, the truth and the fact of the matter is people say, well, ‘you ruin your career because you voted for this or political or this and that.’ I shouldn’t be hired on my political views. I should be hired on my merit, on my acting abilities because you know, that works.”
“So this is on them hiring a new person, which is fine. They could do whatever they want. But hey, but for all the fans around the world to speculate or to say, you know, I ruined my career and all this stuff, mo, that’s not it. So now you know the truth. I’m gonna leave this out there for you to see.”
According to GH News and spoilers, Antonio’s message was addressed in a now-deleted IG video. Please be sure to check back with us at GH Blog for the latest developments.
