Adam J. Harrington is opening up about being the new actor playing the role of John “Jagger” Cates on General Hospital, almost 30 years after original star Antonio Sabato Jr. left the show.
Antonio starred on the soap opera series from 1992 to 1995 and he has never returned, but he had some thoughts about Adam taking over the role.
“So now, they started a new character by the name of John. They don’t even call him ‘Jagger’. They call him ‘John’ because they know that the character’s only been played by me ’cause it’s part of who I am. It’s my life,” Antonio said.
Well, now Adam is opening up about being hired and how he didn’t even know which character he was playing when he signed on for the show!

Adam told Soap Opera Digest, “I had met [Casting Director] Mark Teschner in October [2023] for another role.

No General Hospital spoilers prepared us for this:
Scott Reeves is joining the cast of the drama. The actor will debut in December as Steven Lars Webber, a character last portrayed by Shaun Benson in 2005.
According to TV Guide Magazine, Webber will be thrown into a storyline involving his half-sister, Liz, and the two men in her life: Lucky and Nikolas.
Reeves won't be a series regular, but the recurring role is ideal for the actor and country music artist, who spent a decade as Ryan McNeil on The Young and the Restless.
“I’m still writing music and still recording but I really got hungry for acting again,” said Reeves. “I’ve always had a great respect for General Hospital so I kinda courted them. It was the one show I most wanted to be on.
Steve Burton and I are best friends – we’re literally like brothers – and...
