General Hospital (GH) spoilers reveal that the show’s adding a mystery character who’ll debut this fall. Executive Producer Frank Valentini confirmed that One Life to Live alum Erika Slezak is joining GH, so this is certainly exciting news.
Slezak’s fan club president, Walter Miller, first made the announcement on the actress’ official website and revealed that she’d signed a short-term contract.
Although no details are known about the character Slezak is playing just yet, Valentini later posted on social media about her upcoming Port Charles debut.
“I am thrilled to confirm that my dear friend and former ‘One Life to Live’ colleague, Erika Slezak, will appear on @GeneralHospital this Fall. Stay tuned as we prepare to introduce another daytime legend to Port Charles,” Valentini said on X, formerly known as Twitter.
Soap fans may recall that Slezak played Victoria “Viki” Lord on One Life to Live from 1971 until the show’s last episode aired on ABC in 2012.
When OLTL had a brief online revival in 2013, Slezak appeared on that as well.
One Life to Live characters have resurfaced in Port Charles before, so it’s possible Slezak will reprise her role as Viki when she makes her fall debut in PC.
It’s worth mentioning that Viki ultimately wound up owning the Llanview Banner, where Lulu Spencer (Alexa Havins Bruening) sought work recently.
There’s a chance that connection will be important.
However, it’s also possible that Slezak will portray a brand-new character, especially since the details are being kept under wraps.
Since the show’s being so hush-hush, Slezak might be playing someone new who fits in a storyline they don’t want to spoil just yet.
Whatever the case, many OLTL and Viki fans are delighted about this cast addition.
There’s no denying that Slezak made her mark on the world of daytime dramas, but she may do it once again when she tackles her next role on GH.
