General Hospital (GH) spoilers suggest there are secrets about to come out and the return of Nikolas Cassadine is what will spark the action. Of course TPTB at GH haven’t told us yet who will play Nikolas upon his return – whether it will be Tyler Christopher or Nick Stabile is as yet unknown – perhaps an entirely new actor will play a recast Nik.
Now that it has been revealed that Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart) does in fact have a past with Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) in the WSB, fans have been curious about how a Cassadine could have ever gotten a job in such a high ranking secret service? The answer is simple, he really isn’t a Cassadine!
Long-time General Hospital viewers know that Valentin is supposedly a new member of the Cassadine family, someone who was very mysterious to other family members; none of them really knowing what he looked like. Stories of how evil he was were only told by Helena Cassadine (Constance Towers) herself, so how true could they be?
GH’s Valentin only appeared after Helena had supposedly died, just in time to take his rightful place as heir, claiming everything for himself. Helena needed to have an heir on her side when she learned Nikolas Cassadine (Tyler Christopher) had turned against her; she put her pawn in place and everything went according to plan, until Valentin decided he wanted everything for himself.
You can be sure General Hospital’s Helena Cassadine is not dead and will be back to reclaim the inheritance for herself one day. Since most Cassadines never truly die, it will only be a matter of time for Nikolas to return to his rightful place in the family and Port Charles.
Nik could have his dreadful grandmother support him, in the hope that he will return his loyalty to her and the family. But Nikolas’ impending return could hamper Helena’s plans for the Cassadine inheritance in unexpected ways.
Nikolas is still married to Hayden Barnes (Rebecca Budig), who could very well attempt to take half of everything he owns. He could hate Helena for what she did to his sister, Lulu Spencer Falconeri (Emme Rylan) and the fact that she created Valentin to take what was rightfully his in the first place.
It surely looks like there is going to be an internal war within the Cassadine family very soon, and what General Hospital fan isn’t excited to see some of our favorite villains return to Port Charles?
