General Hospital’s ‘Austin’ Is Back — With More Stories Than You Can Imagine
Credit: ABC
Not many actors can say that they’ve played three very different characters on one soap but when it comes to Roger Howarth, he did just that on and off on General Hospital from 2012 to 2023. First there was Llanview’s Todd, a crossover from sister soap One Life to Live, then he stepped into the shoes of Franco, previously played by James Franco and finally, Austin.
As viewers know, his last two alter egos were murdered. So unless the ABC soap comes up with another back-from-the-dead storyline, well, we likely won’t see Howarth back as those characters. And while fans can hope that maybe he’ll return in a new role, no such plans have been made… However, they will get to see the actor in person at a fun event where stories of his daytime career will be told.

The event will begin at 11:00 am at Uncle Vinnie’s Comedy Club at 518 Arnold Avenue in Point Pleasant Beach, New Jersey.
