The Week of January 13, 2025

Father-daughter act—namely, James Patrick Stuart and Scarlett Fernandez, who portray Valentin Cassadine and his only child, Charlotte—have been written off the soap…for now.  However, there’s more to come. Expect to see the characters back this year when Anna  (Finola Hughes) attempts to extricate her former lover from the deep trouble he’s gotten himself into.

Carlo Rota is back and getting more airtime as the vicious Jenz Sidwell. Now that the character has purchased Wyndemere, he’ll be featured as the new villain in Port Charles.

Mercedes Lopez Renard has been playing Colette Moreau. The WSB operative has been reporting to Jack (Charles Mesure) and recently attempted to take out Valentin.
