Emma Becomes the 34th Actor with a Contract!
The General Hospital Comings and Goings reveals that Emma has officially become the 34th Actor with a contract at GH. And guess what? She even took over from Adam J. Harrington, whose character, John “Jagger” Cates, was recently written out of the series. After her comeback, Samms shared the screen with Jonathan Jackson’s Lucky Spencer.
Although Holly and Lucky haven’t made it back to Port Charles yet, they are on their way home. Moreover, both characters spend a wild few weeks at a refugee camp in East Africa, somewhere near Somalia. The villain, Sidwell (Carlo Rota), holds Lucky captive while Holly is on a quest for her latest goal. Well, this isn’t Emma’s first time returning to GH on a contract.
She was on a contract during her previous stints in 2022 and 2023, though her appearances were relatively brief. Beyond the ABC soap, the actress is widely recognized for her other iconic role- Fallon Carrington Colby. Folks loved Fallon on the classic soaps “Dynasty” and “The Colbys.” Additionally, she made her mark in the British soap opera “Doctors,” where she played Amanda Vardalis.
The GH actress recently responded to a nostalgic post on X/Twitter featuring a photo of herself with former Dynasty co-stars. These include Jack Coleman (who played Steven Carrington) and Gordon Thompson (who played Adam Carrington). The caption read, “Carrington siblings reunited over a delightful lunch.”
Subsequently, Samms couldn’t help but share her joy. She commented, “So lucky to still have these two lovely men as my friends.” With Emma Samms back in the fold at the ABC, she’s bringing her signature charm and talent back! We can’t keep calm about seeing what’s next for Holly Sutton in Port Charles.
