General Hospital Comings and Goings: A Sad Farewell And A Welcome Return

Who’s coming and who’s going from General Hospital (GH) ? Are any favorite performers from yesteryear returning to the daytime drama, this week, or in the near 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 March 25, 2019
Matt Cohen wrapped up his three-year run as Dr. Griffin Munro on Friday, March 22. The actor chose to move on, so he could try his hand at other projects. The door is being left open for his possible return at a later date.

The countdown begins. Ingo Rademacher is officially back on set as Jasper “Jax” Jacks. The actor shared a photo of himself outside the General Hospital studio on March 20, along with the post, “Won’t be long now. Just had my fitting. All new look for Jax.”

Rademacher also noted that he begins shooting, this week, although there’s no official first air date, yet. Rademacher, last seen as Thorne Forrester on The Bold and the Beautiful, hasn’t been on the GH canvas since August of 2017.

With the “on location” scenes in Turkey having wrapped, so have two actors’ stints with the soap. Ashton Arbab, who played Dev, the young man who helped Sonny (Maurice Benard) track down Dante (Dominic Zambrogna), has exited the soap.

Meanwhile, Noshir Dalal, who portrayed the deadly Raj, has ended his run with the show. General Hospital (GH) airs weekdays on ABC. Check your local listings for airtimes.
