General Hospital Spoilers: Michael’s Courtroom Return Shocker – Did GH Reveal Recast’s First Airdate?

General Hospital (GH) spoilers hint that Michael Corinthos’ (last played by Chad Duell) courtroom return could stun everyone. Did GH just reveal the Michael recast’s first airdate?

Carly Spencer (Laura Wright) inadvertently created a mess when it came to Michael’s divorce and custody proceedings.

Since Carly figured it’d take a while to get a court date, she had Diane Miller (Carolyn Hennesy) move forward with scoring one.

Based on what fans learned in the May 14 episode, Carly’s in a bind since the judge managed to get it on the schedule awfully fast.

Michael is still recovering at the clinic in Baden-Baden, so Carly clearly doesn’t think he’ll be well enough to appear on June 2 in court.

That’s why Carly plans to fight for Michael’s children in his place.

With Diane in her corner, Carly intends to use Drew Cain’s (Cameron Mathison) recent scandal against him and try to get the kids out of the home he shares with Willow Corinthos (Katelyn MacMullen).

Of course, Drew has also been strategizing to help Willow, who has Ric Lansing (Rick Hearst) as her new lawyer.

Drew wants to paint Michael as an absentee dad who abandoned Wiley Corinthos (Viron Weaver) and Amelia Corinthos (Sequoia and Serenity Mork Macko), so he’s ready to sink pretty low!

This is shaping up to be a heated custody feud that’s filled with twists and turns.

However, the biggest shocker of all could happen if a Michael recast comes strutting through the courtroom doors.

Now that GH writers are playing up June 2 as the court date, could that also be when a brand-new actor will debut as Michael?

Some leaks have pointed to a Michael recast being in the works, so the show will surely want to make a splash with the character’s return.

What could be more dramatic than Michael making an unexpected courtroom appearance and fighting for his kids?

Michael could come home and reveal that his recovery is further along than anyone else realized.

Carly, Drew and Willow could all be caught off guard if Michael chooses this epic moment to return to the canvas.

This might be Michael’s chance to stand a bold stand and make it clear that he’s a good father who absolutely wants his children.

General Hospital spoilers say some custody strategy updates may be necessary in the end, so stay tuned for more news on the showdown that’s brewing.
