‘General Hospital’ Star Nicholas Chavez Returns to TV

General Hospital fans have been eagerly awaiting updates on Nicholas Alexander Chavez’s character, Spencer Cassadine. Spencer was last seen plunging into the Seine River, leaving viewers uncertain about his fate. Now, Chavez is set to return to television, but will it be in Port Charles? Here’s what he has revealed so far.

On September 25, Nicholas Chavez will make his way back to the small screen. The Emmy award-winning actor will be featured in Ryan Murphy’s new FX thriller series, Grotesquerie.

Grotesquerie is a 10-episode drama series with an impressive cast. Niecy Nash-Betts, known for her role in Season 1 of Ryan Murphy’s Monster, will star as a police detective. She teams up with a nun to solve a series of violent crimes.

Chavez will take on the role of Father Charlie in the series. Other notable names in the cast include Courtney B. Vance and Travis Kelce, the Kansas City Chiefs star athlete.

This isn’t Chavez’s first collaboration with Ryan Murphy. After exiting General Hospital in late 2023, the actor joined Murphy’s team for Season 2 of Monster. The series’ second season delved into the story of the Menendez brothers.

Following his stint in Monster, there were expectations for Chavez to return to General Hospital. However, he has continued to secure other roles, making fans wonder if they had seen the last of him on the soap.

Recently, Chavez hinted at a possible return to General Hospital. In a tweet, he mentioned, “we are still talking very openly about future possibilities for Spencer in Port Charles.” This excited fans who have cherished his portrayal of Spencer Cassadine for years.

While no official announcements have been made, the possibility of Spencer Cassadine’s return has thrilled the fan base. Despite being in talks with General Hospital, it seems that Ryan Murphy has found a valuable actor in Chavez and will keep him busy with other projects.

Ryan Murphy is known for frequently collaborating with the same actors. He seems to appreciate the talent of Nicholas Chavez, similar to how he frequently cast Evan Peters in various roles, from American Horror Story to the lead in Netflix’s Jeffrey Dahmer series.

Nicholas Chavez isn’t the only former soap actor to work with Ryan Murphy. Finn Wittrock, previously of All My Children, was featured in five seasons of American Horror Story and also appeared in Murphy’s American Crime Story and Ratched.

Even if Nicholas Chavez doesn’t return to General Hospital as Spencer Cassadine, his future in the entertainment industry appears promising. He might continue to land exciting roles in various Ryan Murphy projects. And who knows? The GH writers could still surprise everyone with a comeback for Spencer Cassadine.

Fans will have to stay tuned to see where Chavez’s career takes him next. Whether on General Hospital or in thrilling new series like Grotesquerie, his talent is certain to keep audiences captivated.
