US EditionGoodbye, Lucky Spencer! Jonathan Jackson Is Leaving ‘General Hospital’
- Jonathan Jackson, a Daytime Emmy-winning actor, is leaving General Hospital after reprising his role as Lucky Spencer since August 23, 2024.
- Jackson initially left the show in 1999 after winning three Emmys and returned multiple times, including stints in 2009 and a limited return in July 2015 for Anthony Geary's retirement storyline.
- In his recent storyline, Lucky proposed to Elizabeth Webber again, but she declined citing his rootlessness, which led to his decision to leave Port Charles.
- Frank Valentini, the executive producer of General Hospital, expressed gratitude for Jonathan's return to the role of Lucky and emphasized that Jonathan is welcome to reprise the character whenever he wishes.
- Jackson said working with Genie Francis again was a major reason for returning and described the current departure as a substantial exit, not just a brief visit.
