Jon Lindstrom has completed chemotherapy & is ready to return to General Hospital Spoilers
General Hospital Spoilers: Could Ryan Chamberlain Cheat Death Once Again? Plus, a Special Birthday Tribute to Ali Mills
In the ever-twisting world of General Hospital, no villain ever truly stays gone — and it seems Ryan Chamberlain’s dark legacy is far from buried.
Although Ryan, played by the brilliant John Lindstrom, was presumed dead after being shot by Mac Scorpio (John J. York) back in 2023, the mention of his name continues to cast a long, chilling shadow over Port Charles.
Recently, in a tense conversation at Pentonville, both Heather Webber (Alley Mills) and Laura Collins (Genie Francis) invoked Ryan’s memory, reigniting speculation that the serial killer could once again rise from the grave. After all, General Hospital fans know one thing for sure — Ryan Chamberlain has cheated death before.
Decades ago, an explosion left everyone believing he was gone for good, only for Ryan to reemerge years later to wreak fresh havoc on the residents of Port Charles. So while his most recent demise felt definitive, seasoned viewers know that on soaps, no one is ever truly gone.
Even John Lindstrom himself has fanned the flames of curiosity. In a candid interview with Soaps.com, Lindstrom acknowledged that the writers made Ryan’s death appear “pretty final” this time, even joking about the “body bag approach.”
Still, he admitted that General Hospital’s writing team is nothing if not inventive — and if they wanted Ryan back, they’d find a way.
“It’s a little harder to pull off a comeback when so many characters saw the body,” Lindstrom said. “But soap writers are creative — they could always find a way.”
That hint alone was enough to set social media ablaze. Could Ryan’s death have been faked? Could his twin brother Kevin Collins somehow be involved in another twisted doppelgänger plot?
Fans are already speculating about everything from body swaps to elaborate deceptions — the very kind of psychological warfare Ryan excelled at.
And Lindstrom isn’t ruling it out. The actor confessed he’d be more than happy to step back into Ryan’s sinister shoes if the opportunity arose.
“It’s an incredible role,” he said, noting the thrill of portraying such a layered villain. For longtime viewers, the thought of another Ryan storyline — perhaps one that ties into Heather Webber’s current arc — is both terrifying and tantalizing.
While fans dream about Ryan’s possible resurrection, the General Hospital family is also celebrating one of its most beloved stars.
Alley Mills, who plays the unpredictable and unforgettable Heather Webber, is marking her 73rd birthday. Born on May 9, 1951, in Chicago, Illinois, Mills hails from a family deeply rooted in the entertainment world. Her mother was a respected author and editor, while her father worked as a television producer.
Before joining GH, Mills was best known to soap fans as Pamela Douglas on The Bold and the Beautiful, where she charmed audiences for years. Her rich career across television and film continues to inspire.
As fans raise a glass to celebrate Alley Mills’ birthday, they also can’t help but wonder — could Heather’s eerie mention of Ryan Chamberlain mean something more? In Port Charles, the dead don’t always stay that way… and Ryan’s next chapter may be closer than anyone dares to imagine.
