Recent "General Hospital" casting news revealed recasts of Tyler Christopher and Kirsten Storms, which probably disappointed their fans. But another fan favorite is coming back to Port Charles on a recurring basis. TVLine reported that Ingo Rademacher is returning as Jax Jacks and his first air date will be on July 29.
Jax To Address Kidney Mystery
Words have it that Jax's major storyline would revolve around the kidney mystery, which will bring closure to the puzzle as to where the kidney that saved the life of his daughter, Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy). It can be recalled that the organ was originally thought to have come from little Jake (Hudson West). But as it turned out, Jake did not actually die so the kidney must be from someone else. Will Jax finally provide the answer?
Spoilers via Celeb Dirty Laundry tease that Jax return comes as his daughter's illness will worsen and test results will reveal troubling news. His ex-wife Carly Corinthos (Laura Wright) will be hearing shocking news regarding the source of Josslyn's kidney.
Jax's Temporary Return
While fans would be happy to see some relief in the show as other stars take their absences, there's one person who won't be happy: Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard). Will Jax be a competition again for Sonny with Carly? Well, he may not need to worry that much because Rademacher is not returning as full time just yet.
Rademacher is most recently seen in "Hawaii Five-O" as Robert Coughlin. The 45-year-old actor originated the role of Jax Jacks in GH back in 1999 and was last seen in Port Charles in 2013 during the soap's 50th anniversary.
"General Hospital" airs on weekdays on ABC at 2 p.m.
