Kin Shriner Hints at Scotty's GH Comeback

Scotty Baldwin, a familiar face on General Hospital, has been absent from the Port Charles scene for more than a year since his mysterious disappearance in 2024. Actor Kin Shriner, who plays Scotty, has maintained a connection with fans by posting vintage photos from his decades on the show. A recent Instagram post, featuring a 1979 photo with Genie Francis as Laura, suggests that Scotty might be returning to the ABC soap opera soon. Shriner captioned the image, "Always been fun! Hope to do it again soon!! Scotty Laura Honeymoon," fueling speculation among viewers.

Scotty and Laura's early history on the show involved a teenage marriage before Laura met Luke Spencer. Scotty's character evolved from an idealistic law student to a scoundrel after his first love left him. Shriner's portrayal often added layers to Scotty, particularly when the character became a father to Serena. With the news that Serena is returning to Port Charles with Kelly Kruger later this summer, it is anticipated that Scotty will follow. His last on-screen appearance involved investigating a pharmacist who tampered with Sonny's medication, after which he vanished without explanation while working for Ava.
