Hey there, ABC soap opera fans! Today, we want to talk about a GH rumor that is going around. It’s about Marcus Coloma, who, of course, played Nikolas Cassadine up until his recent exit. You remember that last we saw Nikolas, he had been taken away by Austin Gatlin-Holt’s creepy cousin Mason. Now Nikolas is in a coma and being kept somewhere. Let’s dig into this rumor about a possible return for Nikolas Cassadine.
The rumor that’s making its way around the blogosphere is that Marcus Coloma will be back as Nikolas and that Nikolas is going to be the one to save Spencer Cassadine and Trina Robinson from Uncle Victor Cassadine. While that is a great idea, I have to debunk this for many reasons. Let’s dig into this idle chatter about what’s coming on General Hospital.
First and foremost, Marcus Coloma is gone from the role. There is no sign that he came back to film more. As a matter of fact, he didn’t finish filming his final scenes. They brought back Adam Huss to film them. Marcus said that he had been sick and that’s why he couldn’t finish. Then there were rumors that he was mad that his character was being written out, so he deliberately didn’t finish. That’s behind-the-scenes stuff we’re not going to know for sure, but the bottom line is that there might be some hard feelings at least right now. That’s the first reason I doubt he’s coming back.
The second reason I don’t think Nikolas is going to come back right now is that there’s nothing on Marcus’s IMDb page indicating that he is back. His most recent GH credit is January 2023 when he left, and there’s no new activity related to General Hospital on his IMDb page. That’s the second thing.
From a character perspective, Nikolas was bludgeoned by Ava Jerome because he had threatened her daughter, and she was not going to have that. Then she shoved him into the closet, moved him out to the stables, and that’s when Mason took him. The bottom line is he probably has a traumatic brain injury, so he’s not in any shape to rescue anyone. Further, from a plot perspective, there’s nothing aside from Victor bad-mouthing him. Victor told Spencer Cassadine, “You’re just as big a disappointment as your father.” There’s been no indication that we’re going to see Nikolas Cassadine again.
Although I love the character and I love Tyler Christopher in the role, and I really liked Marcus Coloma in the role, it just doesn’t feel like it’s happening. This General Hospital rumor is running rampant, so we wanted to explain and debunk it.
However, here is some exciting news if you were hoping to see Nikolas reunite with Victor. It is kind of happening in real life. Depending on when you’re listening to this, you might be able to see it. Marcus Coloma revealed that he and Charles Shaughnessy, who plays Victor Cassadine, and Kathleen Gati, who plays Liesl Obrecht, are all appearing together. They’ll be together at Uncle Vinnie’s Comedy Club. There is one in New Jersey and one in Philly, and they are doing appearances on May 6th and May 7th. If you really need a Victor and Nikolas fix, plus Dr. O as a bonus, tickets are for sale for their appearances in New Jersey and Philadelphia. Recently, Marcus Coloma promoted it, talking about him and his buddy Charlie (Charles Shaughnessy) appearing.
These rumors are fun to indulge in. Wouldn’t it be great to have Nikolas back? Wouldn’t it be great to see him swoop in and save Spencer? Yes, but based on his departure from GH, the lack of storyline clues, and the way they exited him with Adam Huss recast for the final scenes, it seems a long shot that Marcus Coloma is back.
A lot of people love Marcus Coloma’s casting on General Hospital. I did. I love Tyler Christopher, but when there’s a good recast, it can rock. I’ve been deeply attached to the character and enjoyed both of the core actors that played him. However, if you’re hoping to see Marcus Coloma back as Nikolas Cassadine, don’t hold your breath.
In conclusion, while the rumor mill is buzzing with the potential return of Marcus Coloma as Nikolas Cassadine, the evidence suggests otherwise. The circumstances of his departure, lack of new credits, and current storyline direction all point to Nikolas staying off-screen for now. However, fans can still catch a glimpse of their favorite actors in live appearances, which is a treat in itself. Stay tuned for more updates and keep those hopes alive, but for now, it looks like Nikolas Cassadine’s return is just a wishful rumor.
