Tristan Rogers' Robert Scorpio to Return to 'General Hospital'

Robert Scorpio is returning to Port Charles.

Tristan Rogers will reprise his role as the super spy on “General Hospital” this December. He will be joined by Kimberly McCullough, who played Scorpio’s daughter, Robin. The actor, who originated the role in 1980, last appeared on the show in January 2014.

“Scorpio is such a beloved legacy character who evokes a sense of nostalgia and I know the fans have been patiently waiting for Tristan’s return,” said the series’ executive producer Frank Valentini. “I share their sentiments and enthusiasm and that of our entire GH team in welcoming him home. It’s been a fantastic week of casting announcements for GH, but it’s not over yet.”
