General Hospital (GH) spoilers reveal that Brad Schmidt has joined GH as a Brando Corbin recast, so Johnny Wactor will be temporarily replaced in the role. Wactor was unavailable for filming, but Schmidt stepped up and will soon air in a few episodes to keep the drama going.
Of course, we all know the drill by now since temporary recasts have become quite the trend in Port Charles.
It can be interesting to see another actor’s spin on a character briefly, so many viewers are embracing the fun of it.
In the case of Schmidt, the show seems to have found a great replacement.
Brad Schmidt actually resembles Johnny Wactor, so that should make it a little less jarring during this Brando swap.
Schmidt had short-lived stints on As the World Turns and Guiding Light in the early 2000s, so this isn’t his first soap rodeo.
As for Schmidt’s other work, he’s been featured on Yellowstone, Truth Be Told, Combat Report, House of Lies and more.
If you’re wondering about Brando’s upcoming storylines, he’ll juggle concerns about Sasha Gilmore (Sofia Mattson) with some Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) drama.
There’ll be some worries about Sasha’s well-being after she receives a special delivery.
Brando will also offer to do Sonny a favor, which should involve taking a closer look at Dex (Evan Hofer) and his true motives.
Dante Falconeri (Dominic Zamprogna) and Brando will team up to do a little investigating, so Sonny should appreciate the help.
Brando still seems like the prime candidate to become the new Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) in Sonny’s world, so we’ll see if he eventually tackles that role within Sonny’s organization.
In the meantime, Brando will keep running the garage and fretting over Sasha’s emotional state.
Brad Schmidt will only be around for a handful of episodes before Johnny Wactor reclaims the role, but we’ll be sure to pass along all the latest updates and news. GH fans will want to give Schmidt a warm welcome during his time in Port Charles!
