General Hospital (GH) spoilers indicate a new face is about to hit the land of Port Charles! That’s because soap newcomer, actor Charlie Besso, is slated to join the cast on Tuesday, February 18, playing the role of Tobias.
Tobias’ Connection to Aiden Spencer
GH fans may recall the name Tobias from a December 20, 2023, episode, when Aiden Spencer (Colin Cassidy) first came out to his mom, Elizabeth Baldwin (Rebecca Herbst).
The two were preparing a Christmas meal when the boy mentioned his crush, and of course, Liz happily accepted what Aiden had to tell her.
While Valentine’s Day is a thing of the past in the real world, GH will be celebrating the holiday during Tuesday’s show.
Aiden will introduce Tobias to his parents, Elizabeth and Lucky Spencer. In addition, during the epi, Days of Our Lives alum will temporarily step in as Lucky, who is normally played by Jonathan Jackson.
No need for fans to fret though, as the Wilson recast is only for a handful of episodes. Jackson has already returned to filming and will be seen once again by the end of February.
The reason for the late Valentine’s Day festivities is due to pre-emptions, mainly ABC’s coverage of the late President Jimmy Carter’s state funeral that occurred on Tuesday, January 7 of this year.
Charlie Besso’s Acting Resume
While he’s getting his feet wet in the land of daytime drama with this GH stint, Besso has done a fair amount of acting projects in the past.
He debuted in the original Peacock series ‘The Calling’ back in 2022, portraying Vincent Conte in the first four episodes of the show.
In addition, Besso recently appeared in Prime Video’s hit drama, ‘Fallout’, which is based on the video game. He also just wrapped up Season 2 of ‘The Night Agent’ on Netflix.
At 22 years of age, Besso isn’t only an actor, he’s also a singer, with thousands who listen to him monthly on Spotify.
