Is Franco Leaving ‘General Hospital’ – But a Twist Keeps Roger Howarth Around?

General Hospital spoilers suspect Franco Baldwin‘s (Roger Howarth) time might be up soon on GH. However, a shocking twist could mean Roger may remain on the ABC sudser after all.

General Hospital Spoilers: Stone Cold May Take Franco Baldwin Out

GH spoilers remind, Franco Baldwin recently asked Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) to kill him. Of course, there’s a good chance Jason could do it. For years, Jason has wanted Franco dead. Now, he has his chance. Remember, Franco tormented Jason and his true love Sam McCall (Kelly Monaco) years ago.

And he freaked out countless others many years ago, recall General Hospital viewers. No doubt, Franco was sick and twisted back in the day. Clearly, that’s the man Jason still sees. Not the reformed art therapist and family man. So, Stone Cold may give Franco Baldwin what he wants and end his life if he turns dark again.

However, there’s always a chance Franco Baldwin may beat cancer and live, tease General Hospital spoilers.

Franco May Survive Crisis on GH

There’s always the possibility Franco Baldwin could beat his illness and survive, hint General Hospital. Soon, Franco tells his wife Elizabeth Webber (Rebecca Herbst) the truth. Perhaps, Liz and Terry Randolph (Cassandra James) may put their heads together and develop a treatment plan.

Elizabeth is a medical professional, and she loves Franco Baldwin with all of her heart. So, there’s no way she’s going to sit back and let the tumor win. Plus, “Frizzies” will be devastated if the reformed serial killer dies. So, Elizabeth may pull off a miracle and save Franco, General Hospital spoilers tease.

Will Roger Swap From Franco to Todd Manning on General Hospital?

General Hospital spoilers recall Roger Howarth first came onto the GH scene as Todd Manning. Long-time soap watchers may remember Roger’s days as Todd on One Life to Live. However, Prospect Park sued ABC, and there was a big, hairy deal over the OLTL characters. Eventually, the suit fizzled out – and ABC can now use characters from OLTL if they choose.

Now, rumors are circulating that the powers that be may bring back two OLTL characters. Of course, there’s Todd. Plus, Todd’s daughter Starr Manning (Kristen Alderson), originally joined the General Hospital cast with her dad. So, there might be a twist in the works. What if they kill Franco and bring back Todd? That might thrill some fans – and annoy others.

Remember, Nora Buchanan (Hillary B Smith) already did a couple of cameos on General Hospital and could come back to Port Charles to stay. Remember, the legal eagle has represented several baddies in town. So, Nora might be the second character to join GH permanently and take place among the legal sharks.

Now, Todd doesn’t have bad blood with anyone in Port Charles like Franco. So, even if he dies, it doesn’t mean Roger will leave. Also, backstage chatter is that Frank Valentini loves Roger. So, we may say goodbye to Franco Baldwin soon, but Roger’s fun and quirky personality may stick around on ABC daytime.
