‘General Hospital’ Fan Favorite Mobster Sets the Record Straight About Possible Soap Return

It’s been five years since General Hospital’s Julian Jerome fell off a New Jersey bridge to his death, ending William deVry’s eight-year run on the ABC soap. During that time, deVry has remained a very busy actor, while fans have speculated about a possible return. Now, deVry has addressed some recent return rumors, making his stance very clear.

“I am not coming back to General Hospital,” the actor said very matter-of-factly in a recent Instagram video, updating fans on his professional life.

deVry chose now to address the possibility of a return due to a rash of online videos and false articles claiming the actor would be reprising the role of Julian soon. Although deVry won’t be making any Port Charles appearances any time soon, he was quick to let fans know where they can see him.

According to deVry’s video, he will appear in the thriller Spill, which will stream on both Apple TV and Amazon Prime. In addition, deVry has a role in the Lifetime movie The Monster She Married. He also has a guest spot on an upcoming episode of Tracker.

Although deVry, who also played Michael Cambias on All My Children and Storm Logan on The Bold and the Beautiful, won’t be bringing Julian back to life any time soon, the prospect of the character returning is not out of the realm of possibility.

Although Julian had suffered two gunshot wounds when he fell from that bridge, there is always a possibility he survived, as this is a soap opera after all. While his body was said to have been found, the audience never saw it, which means anything is possible.

Currently, Julian still has multiple family members in Port Charles, including his sister, Ava Jerome (Maura West), son, Lucas (Van Hansis), and grandchildren, Danny (Asher Antonyzyn) and Scout (Kayden Brenna Tokarski). His ex-wife, Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn), is also still on the scene and can use a love interest.
