GH just sprung a major casting shocker on us! Meet Bluesy Burke, the new Charlotte Cassadine! 🌟

General Hospital teased several characters returning this fall, including Nathan, Valentin, and Charlotte. But the young Cassadine is about to look a little different when Bluesy Burke steps into the role.

Scarlett Fernandez Ends Her Run
After playing Valentin (James Patrick Stuart) and Lulu’s (Alexa Havins) daughter Charlotte off and on since 2014, Scarlett Fernandez has said goodbye to Port Charles. Fernandez’s Charlotte was last seen on GH earlier this year when she and her dad went on the run.

The actress has recently shared her love of volleyball on social media, and even created an entirely separate Instagram account dedicated to her volleyball career.

Meet Bluesy Burke
If Burke looks familiar, it may be because of her famous dad. The 17-year-old actress is the daughter of a Billy Burke, best known for his role as Bella’s father Charlie in the Twilight film franchise.
As teased in the GH Fall Preview, Burke’s Charlotte “returns to the canvas and assumes a pivotal role. She’s very useful to anyone who wants something from Valentin — and she knows it. She isn’t afraid to exploit her relationship with her father to get what she wants. She’ll draw closer to Danny (Asher Antonyzyn) and Rocco (Finn Carr) as we develop GH’s next generation.”
