GH Casts Two Soap Vets
As GENERAL HOSPITAL moves into a storyline centered around Luke’s disappearance, the soap has cast two former daytimers in recurring roles. A show rep confirms that Priscilla Garita — who played SUNSET BEACH’s Gabi before moving to PASSIONS to replace Lindsay Korman (Cara, ALL MY CHILDREN) as Theresa — will debut as Lupe, a woman with a long-standing history with Luke, on Friday, June 10.
Meanwhile, former PRISON BREAK and GHOST WHISPERER regular Kurt Cacares — who filled in for Mark Consuelos on AMC for several months in 2002 while Mateo’s portrayer filmed The Great Raid — enters the scene on Friday, June 24, as Javier, a shady and dangerous (yet quite charming!) guy.
