General Hospital C&G News

Are any of your favorite performers from yesteryear returning to the daytime drama, this week, or in the not too far off future? Have any new actors or actresses been cast on the show in contract, recurring, or day player roles? Are any well-remembered or beloved stars from other soaps, past or present, about to join the General Hospital fold in surprise new parts? Here’s the latest casting news from the ABC soap.

The week of August 9, 2021
Gigi Bermingham has taken over the role of Naomi Dreyfus, Hayden’s (Rebecca Budig) mother. The actress made her first appearance on August 6. The role of Naomi was originated by Robin Riker back in 2016.

Bermingham may look familiar to Days of our Lives fans. She played Dr. Lois Banks on the soap from 2005 to 2006.

Marc Anthony Samuel is finally back on the job as General Hospital nurse Felix Dubois. Look for the character to share scenes with Rebecca Herbst’s Elizabeth and Katelyn MacMullen’s Willow on Tuesday, August 10.

Please note that air dates may be subject to change.
