‘General Hospital’ Spoilers Signal MORE Significant Cast Exits Ahead
New General Hospital spoilers hint viewers might want to buckle their seat belts with a wild ride on the horizon. Rumors have suggested at least one major cast member might depart soon. Now, it seems there may be multiple exits in the works.
The General Hospital Cast Is Supposedly In Disarray
Recently, sources started talking about Ingo Rademacher (Jasper “Jax” Jacks) departing General Hospital. Neither the show, nor the actor, confirmed that yet. Despite that, supposedly it is already a done deal. The issue at hand, it seemed, was the show’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate. Rademacher has been quite outspoken against vaccine mandates over the past couple of months.
There have been murmurs about other General Hospital cast members who may have initially balked at the mandate as well. From the sounds of things, the powers-that-be at GH may be ready to cut people loose over this, even if they are major cast members.
A Sticky Situation May Have Developed
On Wednesday, Twitter was ablaze as General Hospital fans buzzed over rumors of another departure. Once again, no official confirmations (or denials) have emerged yet. However, there is a lot of talk about Steve Burton (Jason Morgan) also leaving. The vaccine mandate reportedly factors in here too.
With Rademacher, it’s not tough to send Jax back to Australia. He’s left General Hospital before, and Jax doesn’t have much going on in Port Charles right now. Writing Jason out, however, would be trickier. Burton left in 2012 and the show killed off Jason. However, they later cast The Young and the Restless star Billy Miller to bring Jason back.
Then, things got complicated when Burton decided he wanted to return five years after leaving. The writers made Burton the “real” Jason, while Miller was suddenly a secret twin named Drew Cain. Not long after that, General Hospital seemingly fired Miller. In addition, they recently brought in All My Children star Cameron Mathison to bring Drew back. Given all that, the General Hospital writers might be in a tough spot if Burton leaves and they have to figure out what to do with Jason once more.
Other Exits May Be In The Works
TV Source editor Ryan White-Nobles teased his General Hospital followers on Twitter about the rumors. He stated “If what I just heard about #GH is true…I literally can’t even.” He followed up detailing, “To clear up: this is re: COVID policy compliance (well, non-compliance).” He added he got information from “Numerous trusted Sources,” but couldn’t name names until he could verify the scoop.
At the moment, Rademacher and Burton seem to be the two at the center of these rumors. Could there be others? Are these two really gone? General Hospital fans will be quite curious to see what comes of these supposed exits in the weeks ahead.
Good I hope it’s true can’t stand Steve Burton and Ingo
Wouldn’t miss them if they both left GH.
I will stop watching the show if Ingo Rademacher leaves and Steve Burton.
Please don’t that Steve Burton leave GH why does tv networks do what they do they don’t care about the viewers. Also I don’t give a damn about Nancy I dislike when people can’t mind their own business. also if Steve leaves I will stop watching. But then you don’t care anyway.
I will be very upset if Steve Burton leaves well that’s the end for me and GH!
No Steve no GH for me even though I love Kelly Monaco (JaSam)!
I only started watching GH again because Steve returned. It saddens me he would leave over a vaccine.
This is all because Nancy couldn’t keep her big mouth shut!! Now two hugh characters and fan favorites are leaving. She should have been the one fired and leaving the show for posting back stage drama. Her and her character sucks. Her storyline is really non existent and she could be written out easily and never to be seen again. Have Nicholas take her out.
Totally agree
If Steve Burton leaves I will no longer watch gh and I have watched it for years.
Goodbye Jasper Jax…. good riddance General Hospital fans that we are idiots for getting vaccinated Jason Morgan please stay
I enjoyed Nancy on Santa Barbara and her earlier time on GH, but over the past years, her character has become too neurotic. Makes me wonder if her real life is bleeding into her character. She’s definitely a hot mess more along the lines of Joy Behar now. I don’t know what happened to her, but IMO, she reminds me of a nasty, ill-informed, self-hating wino who projects that hate onto others. Get rid of HER.
LMAO @ the people who are attacking Nancy… of course, you’re going to go after the outspoken woman who doesn’t have a problem telling it like it is. We’re in the MIDDLE OF A FREAKING PANDEMIC! Of COURSE, Nancy should voice her concerns, not only for her own safety but the safety of her fellow castmates. 100% a mandate should be in place and I’m glad it is and I’m glad they’re giving the boot to anti-vaxxer Ingo R-whatever his last name is.
I hope Steve Burton complies with the mandate and stays on GH, but I’m GLAD Ingo is out. He’s a hateful asshat. And his apology to the trans-community was just a huge joke. Also, the fact that he was so defensive and had to continue explaining WHY he isn’t transphobic was a LAUGH. “Would a transphobic man say…” … yes, Ingo. Yes, they would. Especially if they were trying to save face. I cannot wait until his hateful, ugly ass is off of GH. Ugly inside & out. Good riddance. Don’t let the door hit ya where the good Lord split ya.
Amy, I totally agree with you. And, I would like to add that this is a Corporate (Disney) decision. Not dictated by NLG.
I also work for a company that is mandating vaccines (healthcare industry). It is the company’s choice to decide if they want to provide a safe working environment for EVERYONE and not just the few. If you don’t want to work under the rules and mandates that your employer institues, then LEAVE.
