General Hospital (GH) spoilers tease that there’s a mystery boss behind Drew Cain’s (Cameron Mathison) captivity, so will Victor Cassadine (last played by Thaao Penghlis) be revealed as the evil mastermind?
The show’s been dropping some hints about Victor possibly returning from the dead to stir up more trouble. It seems like GH may be gearing up to make Victor the next “all roads lead to this guy” type of villain.
Cyrus Renault (Jeff Kober) was the resident baddie that everything was connected to for a while, but now it may be Victor’s turn to have a hand in several pots.
There’s a good chance Victor is tied to Hayden Barnes’ (Rebecca Budig) disappearance and the death of Naomi Dreyfus (Gigi Bermingham), but there could be a major link to Drew’s story as well.
After all, Victor Cassadine was the one holding captive Drew in cryogenic stasis in 2014. That was believed to be Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) back then, but we now know it was memory-mapped Drew.
Once fans finally see Drew again, he’ll be determined to find out who’s behind his time locked up in a foreign prison.
There’ll be some mysterious boss that Drew’s curious about – someone who plucked Drew from the ocean and has held him hostage since his plane crash.
This seems like an excellent opportunity to have Victor reemerge as a powerful villain, but he’ll likely have a new face.
Charles Shaughnessy is set to debut in a contract role this September, so it all adds up for him to be playing a Victor Cassadine recast based on the clues.
Will Drew find out that Victor’s responsible for his time in captivity? Will Sam McCall (Kelly Monaco) crack the case and bring Drew home?
Some great stuff’s coming up – and it’ll all start with Drew’s stunning call to Sam on August 16.
We’ll pass along updates as other GH news becomes available. General Hospital spoilers say Victor’s return does seem to be in the works, so we’ll see just how much he shakes up the canvas.
