Who is leaving the show General Hospital?

With his character becoming the first victim to perish after an attack by The Hook, a new serial killer threatening the lives of Port Charles citizens, actor Johnny Wactor concluded his run as Brando Corbin on the Tuesday, September 20 episode of “General Hospital.”

In an interview published in the latest issue of Soap Opera Digest, on newsstands Friday, Wactor tells the outlet that his final days on the show were very hectic, “because I was filming so many pages, I didn’t really have time to kind of think or be emotional or reflect on anything.” However, following his final taping, “I gave a little speech. I knew that I would want to say something just because of my time there and my relationships with the people in the cast and crew. I was a little emotional.”

Wactor had only been with the show since his first on-air appearance in January 2020, but it wasn’t his choice to leave the series. “I’ve got no bad blood and I wish everyone at ‘GH’ the best,” Wactor noted of learning his character was being written out.

“Sad day for Brando… but honestly had fun filming a rain scene and working with @johnnywactor,” shared co-star Lexi Ainsworth (Kristina Davis) in a post on her Instagram story entitled “Bittersweet.”

“RIP ‘Brando Corbin’, could not have been played by a better Actor. Love ya Johnny!” wrote co-star David Lautman (Grant Smoltz), who shared a clip (shown below) of Brando’s death scene on his Instagram story. In response, Wactor said, “Thank you brother. Enjoyed working with you. And may Smoltz live on to wreak more havoc!”

Who’s Leaving General Hospital? Is Liz Webber Exiting?

One of the most concerning storylines right now is about Elizabeth Webber. As she spirals out and is seen less and less many fans worry that Liz might be leaving GH.

It wouldn’t be the first time there was a crisis with Herbst – the last a few years ago when ABC was playing tough with her contract renewal. So, is Elizabeth leaving General Hospital?

Well, hello there…just thought I’d shut down some rumors that have been circulating: I haven’t been fired. I’m not on vacation. I don’t have covid. My kids don’t keep me from working. Nor do I have cramps (the best one yet 😂). I hope you all have a great weekend! XOXO..♥️ #GH

The prevailing answer seems to be “no”. In fact, we could see a familiar face return to be part of Liz’s ongoing mental health crisis. A close family member of the Webber clan. So, that’s exciting news…

And Becky Herbst also shut down exit chatter herself (see the tweet above). So, don’t panic if you see chatter about Liz leaving GH. It’s not happening.

Are Chad Duell & Johnny Wactor Gone from GH?

Other concerning exits from the soap include the actors that play Michael Corinthos and Brando Corbin. First, there’s Michael. Chad Duell came down with COVID-19 and had to take time off the soap.

If you saw Robert Adamson in the role and out and were confused, here’s the deal. General Hospital doesn’t always air in the precise order they film. So, that’s why the in and out, but then back to Adamson as Michael for a couple of weeks.

Now, Chad’s back on set and resumed taping (see pic above). As for Johnny Wactor, there’s no word yet on why he stepped back for a bit. But, he’s got four films in the works. So, could it be that Wactor’s leaving? Is there GH comings and goings news?

For now, Yellowstone alum Brad Schmidt (who bears an uncanny resemblance to Johnny) steps into the role. Wactor’s expected back but has a TV movie, two feature films, and a short film on his work roster.

Who’s Exiting General Hospital?

Some recent exits also include Patrick Gibbons in and out as helpful scout Wyatt. And Joshua Benard, son of Maurice Benard, popped up again as the college bully messing with Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy).

Meanwhile, General Hospital fans worry about Trina Robinson (Tabyana Ali) but she’s not going anywhere. It’s just a matter of time before Esme Prince’s (Avery Pohl) plot blows up in her face.

But Esme’s not going anywhere either. The talented young actress signed a three-year deal to play Ryan Chamberlain’s (Jon Lindstrom) awful daughter.

Meanwhile, look for big bad Cyrus Renault’s (Jeff Kober) return. No word how long he sticks around. But he’s sure to wreak havoc. Check back to Soap Dirt often for more news on GH casting.
