While the details surrounding his unnamed role are being kept under wraps, Mathison’s return to daytime TV comes after the news that “Home And Family” will come to an end in August.
“I am absolutely thrilled to be part of the ‘General Hospital’ family,” Mathison told ET Canada in a statement. “Incredibly grateful to Frank Valentini and the writers at ‘GH’ for including me in such an iconic show.
