The month-long guessing game that’s been giving General Hospital fans heart palpitations is over: The popular cast member returning to the ABC soap this summer is… Bryan Craig.

A GH rep confirms to TVLine exclusively that Craig will reprise his role as Morgan Corinthos, the late son of Sonny (Maurice Benard) and Carly (Laura Wright), for one episode in early August. It’s unclear what form the dearly departed Morgan will take when he resurfaces, although his comeback will come as his mob boss dad has alienated himself from everyone in Port Charles.

Speculation about a big GH comeback began earlier this month when GH executive producer confirmed on the Daytime Emmys red carpet that a male “former cast member is coming back… that the audience will go crazy for.”

In recent weeks, Craig himself has been hinting at the possibility that the returnee could be him in a series of social media posts, one of which included a recent backstage photo of the GH set.

Craig’s nearly four-year GH run concluded in 2016 after Morgan (presumably) perished in a car bomb. He briefly returned in 2018 when he appeared in a vision to Maura West’s Ava. During his time on the soap, he won two Daytime Emmys for Outstanding Younger Actor in a Drama Series.

Craig recently wrapped a two-season run on the Freeform drama Good Trouble .
