General Hospital star Jon Lindstrom, aka Kevin Collins, has just entered the world of Beyond the Gates! It made BTG a hot gossip topic, and they haven’t even aired a single episode yet. Alongside him, the show has also welcomed another soap legend, Cady McClain, making this an epic casting announcement. As for Jon’s character, it will make his GH character look tame. Read on to learn the full deets.
General Hospital: Owing Joey Armstrong? Bad Idea!
The General Hospital icon was beaming in excitement and shared those intense emotions on special media. He teased about his new venture by posting two pictures on X/Twitter. One featured BTG’s Dupree family, while another hyped up the show’s Entertainment Tonight special, Welcome to the Neighborhood.
Moreover, Jon addressed his recent disappearance from the platform. “I’ve been keeping a low profile as I commute to the wonderful world of Beyond the Gates.” But now you know—he was secretly plotting his next soap takeover! So, who exactly is Jon Lindstrom playing in this sizzling new drama created by Michele Val Jean?
Lindstrom will grace our screens as Joey Armstrong, a business-savvy casino owner. And boy, he has a hard time forgiving debts! The GH actor revealed, “Much like me, Joey doesn’t like it when people owe him money.” However, his alter ego is quite lethal and can take things very personally. How bad could it be?
Is Kevin Collins Saying Goodbye?
Lindstrom chuckled, “Unlike Joey, I won’t cut a person’s hand off if they owe me $10.” Trust us, you don’t want to get on his bad side! The ABC soap fans have seen Jon sinking his teeth into dark roles before, and he’s quite good at it. Remember the creepy serial killer Ryan Chamberlain?
While Lindstrom gives life to his new role, we wonder if it’s the end of Dr. Kevin Collins in Port Charles. FYI, there’s no official word on his GH status but Beyond the Gates will demand a lot of his time. Lindstrom will be one busy man! Mark your calendar for February 24 and catch the premiere of Beyond the Gates on CBS.
