Port Charles' Newest Resident

General Hospital is going to get a little James Franco. RANDOM isn't even the word.

Soapnet announced that James wanted a role on the show, so they wrote him in just in time for November sweeeeeeeeps. James will play a "mysterious man" who comes to Port Charles. They would only say that James' character will makes Jason's life a "living hell." His first episode will air on November 20th and he's expected to stay for around 2-months.

GH's executive producer said that it was "an honor that an actor of Franco's caliber would choose to spend some of his valuable time in Port Charles."

Who knew that James Franco got the tingles for General Hospital?

Those of you who have a life (or a day job) might not know that Laura is currently in rehab in France (yes, I stay abreast of the goings-on in Port Charles) on the show. At least they say she's in rehab, but I think Laura was actually in France to have a sex change. James Franco should play the newly peened Laura who comes back to Port Charles and seduces Luke! Because James Franco and Luke need to have at least one fuck scene. At least one.

And what is Nurse Bobbie going to say about this?!

Oooh...I've been missing my GH lately, but I will definitely have to tune in. What kind of hostage crisis/explosion do they have lined up for this November? This is very surprising (but welcome!) news.

I keep tabs on this soap, too. LOL. With Franco and Jonathon Jackson, I might have to DVR...

Now the show is all about the mob and SONNY.

I liked the days back of lucky and liz(after her rape)
Brenda,Jaxs and sonny triangle

ps: I no longer watch it.

Jonathon Jackson is also coming back as Lucky for what its worth.

GH is the only soap I watch. This guy better not fuck it up.

zomay is it still the same Sonny Corinthos?
________________________________

Yes. I used to really like him. Now he is okay. I talked to a guy who went to his house (in the hills of Temecula Ca) and at home he had WHITE/grey hair!

He should play his Pineapple Express character.

He's doing it for research purposes. They are saying for a movie, but I am thinking more for school. He is far from hard up for work. He's been on the upswing for a while now.

It is so bizarre that he will be on a soap though. GH is terrible these days too. Wish he would have picked Days or OLTL, so I wouldn't have to tune in to GH.

after seeing him in spiderman-3, i would let him turn my vagina powaaah inside-out like a gym sock in the hamper.

Since Michael K actually created a GH post, here is my opinion about the show at the moment. Here goes.

jason & liz= yuck

jason & sam= better

jason & sonny= gay soulmates ;D

carly & jax= okay but a little zzzzzzz

spinelli= shut that kid up!

nic= more nic he's hot

patrick & robin= whatever! over it.

robin & jason= don't go back to that.

liz & lucky= yes

liz & nic= omg don't know what my feeling is about that but it is wrong and I like this wrong.

olivia + claudia's bro= not sexy

claudia= love her, loved her as original carly

zomay's picture

Maybe he will try to seduce Sam and get Jason jelly. Please do that.

zomay's picture

WHAT!!??

I watch this crap show on soapnet. Have watched it for many years. So he is going to make jason's life a living hell? GOOD!

easyaspie2's picture

He is no Rick Springfield! There can be only one. This guy looks like the type who takes years of yoga so he can talk to his own peen.

Established actor requesting work from a soap opera, this can only mean his career is dead and he's hard up for work.

Rehab? Laura? What is she addicted to, her psychiatric meds? Please, someone who watches GH needs to explain Laura's rehab to me. I would really appreciate it!

not so cute when he cheeses.

First the Judge Judy post.. now General Hospital? These are the two main reasons I praise Jesus everyday for inventing DVR. He clearly had His hand in it.

I started watching GH again about 6 months ago when I had the flu. I was hooked. I hope Mr. Franco comes back as someone's gay lover. We just don't get enough hot man on man action before People's Court.

lez-babe's picture

Aw shucky darn. I don't know why but I juss like this Franco guy. He always seems so happy! He might be high on the good stuff or high on life. Either way, it makes me happy to see someone else that happy.

DonkeyPunched's picture

You just fucking know he called his agent while he was fucking stoned out of his mind and watching daytime tv and asked him to book him a part on the show. I can actually imagine the whole thing went exactly like that.

2Di4: So you finally went into labor, huh?

I don't mind Franco, but I hear he's a closeted gay.

mmm Jason. I wish they let him grow his hair back out.
yummy yummy yummy so munchable

Dude, I love me some General Hospital and even I think this is the weirdest shit I've ever read!

Aint nothing wrong with soaps, some of our best actors and actresses have came from them. I think its cool that he wants the experience hope he can handle it soap acting isn't for everyone you have a ton of dialogue to memorize its not like a tv show or movie

I SMURFING loved him in Milk. I think he was great.
as much as I like Sean (as an Actor, I must say)I don't think he deserved that oscar, I saw Milk and the Wrestler the same day, becasue I wanted to compare. Loky's Bitch deserved better, hands down, Sean's milk was too over the top.

Sweet Babu's picture

I got the hots for him big time in Pineapple Express even though he looked all dirty and stoned. Didn't get to see Milk yet, but I bet Franco brought the hot in that one too (in a gay sort of way, but who cares?)

loozer's picture

I can't help but like Franco. I only watched GH for a brief time in the early 80's (jock college roomate watched it), but I still seem to know the characters. I grew up with the CBS soaps and got hooked on DAYS in the 80's. DAYS is the only one I still watch on a regular basis, but my female parental unit keeps me up to date on ATWT, Y&R and the recently departed GL.

Yeah, I'm looking at that picture and re-thinking my points, he looks retarded and not so smart there, but MK is talented like that, he always finds the best pictures.

I like him...
maybe is the fact that he still going to college and trying to get an education(did he finish yet?), or maybe he is hot and I'd do him in a heart beat.I think either reason is valid.

Yes, either is valid or hell none at all.

This sounds like a move hatched by a couple of potheads after a wake and bake session.

Friend: "Dude, you know what would be funny, if you were one of those hot soap opera hunks."

James: "heheheehehe, yeah it would."

*James dialing cellphone* "Hello agent, yeah I wanna be on a soap. You know, the one with Luke and Laura. Cool man, thanks." *bong bubbling*

Friend: "Dude, you're gonna get so much snatch after this!

James: "Yeah and weed money!"

For me, watching soaps is like watching paint dry. Don't get me wrong, love the excellent guycandy, but these shows are so effing slow.

I wasn't a GH girl, I was a Day's watcher.

Wonder why he's doing soaps now?

Isn't there another Spiderman installment in production?

M.E.'s picture

I loved him in Pinapple Express.

dreadpiratecuervo's picture

OMG did I love GH when I was in grammar school. I stopped watching it in high school b/c I wasn't home @ 3 o'clock everyday but this show was the shit. Duke Lavery & Anna DeVane were my favorites. & Jagger, back when Antonio Sabato, Jr. was still a hot piece. Every once in a while I glance over at the soap mags in the checkout line & can't believe I still know who some of the people are when I haven't watched tge show in over 15 years.
