‘General Hospital (GH)’ spoilers reveal Port Charles has been a busy place lately. Between temporary absences, recasts, and new faces, there’s plenty to keep fans guessing. However, there’s about to be more change ahead. Let’s take a look at the latest addition to the show and what is known.
ABC ‘General Hospital’ Spoilers: Welcome…
First, General Hospital spoilers reveal the latest addition to the GH world is no stranger to soaps, or the business. Actor Charles Shaughnessy is known for multiple sitcoms roles, especially his role on The Nanny. He later reunited with Nanny star Fran Drescher in other projects. But he also has a soap history, as he played Shane Donovan and Drew Donovan on Days of Our Lives. So, what is he going to do in Port Charles? That’s a good question.
ABC ‘General Hospital’ Spoilers: We’re sensing a trend…
Recently, we had a new role for a familiar face. Roger Howarth, whose character, Franco Baldwin, died after being shot, turned up again. This time, he plays Austin Gatlin-Holt, a man who’s determined to get a piece of the Quartermaine legacy denied his late father. Before his appearance on screen, we didn’t even have a character name. And he didn’t get revealed as a Quartermaine until a little bit into his run. This isn’t the first time this happened lately.
Another actor, Cameron Mathison, is also joining the show. We reported he’s already on set, but there is still no word about who he’s playing. And Mathison himself hinted that even he doesn’t have the whole story yet. That’s the case now as well.
Besides the fact Shaughnessy has joined the cast, there is no word on his character yet. We’re expecting this to remain the case, as with the other two recent arrivals. Will Mathison and Shaughnessy have the same impact on the story, as far as being part of a major family? We don’t know.
However, based on the Austin thing so far, we have a good feeling about their potential. All we do know is, you can expect him sometime in September. Which, since Mathison was announced quite a bit back, we assume we’ll see him by then as well.
ABC ‘General Hospital’ Spoilers: Impressive
While we wait for more information on these characters and what they’ll do in Port Charles, we have to give props. Sure, it’s got to be slightly easier these days. With various protocols on sets now, we’re sure there’s a reduced number of people who can find things out and leak it. Still, with so many cell phones out there and actors/social media people accidentally revealing things, we’re surprised they’ve kept Howarth’s and Mathison’s characters under wraps like this.
And we’re surprised to see they’re poised to do the same now. It’s actually sort of nice. It reminds us of the pre-social era when so many shows could shock viewers. We love our General Hospital spoilers sometimes, but there’s something to be said for just coming along for a ride without knowing where it’s headed.
