Cody Teased A Major Return On June 6 General Hospital
While there wasn't much to update on the Michael vs. Willow battle, Cody may have teased a major Port Charles return on the June 6, 2025 episode of General Hospital. After paying Sasha (Sofia Mattsson ) and her new daughter Daisy a visit at GH, Cody (Josh Kelly) headed to the Metro Court pool. Meanwhile, after Molly (Kristen Vaganos) decided to recuse herself from helping Natalia (Eva LaRue) with her DUI charge due to her being homophobic toward Kristina (Kate Mansi), she also arrived at the pool to finish up some work. READ THIS: Here's what's coming up on GH. Once Cody finally convinced her to enjoy some spontaneity, dip her feet in the pool and have a drink with him, the two got to talking. Cody revealed that he was feeling nostalgic, the pool being the exact spot where he arrived in Port Charles. He shared with her the story of parachuting into the pool, and how he accidentally knocked Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud) into the pool. Now that the news of Britt's portrayer's return broke, it makes perfect sense why Cody mentioned the late doctor today. While many wondered if Thiebaud would be returning as a new character, after Cody's name-drop, the actress may just be reprising her best known GH role. Thiebaud left GH in 2023 when Britt was killed by The Hook, who was revealed to be Heather (Alley Mills). At that time, Britt was also succumbing to her Huntington's disease, while also mourning the loss of Jason (Steve Burton), who she was just getting closer to before he was presumed dead. If Britt is really back from the dead, will she reunite with her old flame now that he, too, is back from the dead? Are you excited for Thiebaud's upcoming return? Let us know in the comments.

Brenda Song Dropped By Agent After The Social Network
Brenda Song says she was dropped by her agent after taking a role in — wait for it — The Social Network. I know — of all things! Let me explain. If you remember, Brenda appeared in the David Fincher film as Eduardo Saverin's girlfriend, Christy Ling. It was a small role, but obviously one of a lifetime, which is why Brenda decided to take it. Unfortunately, her agents at the time had other ideas in mind, and when Brenda chose to go with The Social Network over a starring role, they dropped her! Brenda explained the whole situation in a recent conversation captured by The Wrap. She said, "There was another project that I had booked when I also booked The Social Network and my agents very much pushed me for the other project. [They're] like, 'It's a lead role, it's a big movie. This is amazing, this is it.'" "I was like, 'David Fincher is one of my favorite directors of all time,'" Brenda continued. "They're like, 'It's two scenes,' but I'm like, 'This is what I really wanted.' And my agents dropped me over this decision." Brenda recalled being "really upset" at the time because she'd been trying to find her footing after The Suite Life of Zack & Cody — but looking back, she's glad she followed her gut. "You have to follow your gut instinct because it's your life. It's about your life experience, it's not about the outcome," Brenda shared. "I realize now that for me, when I make a project, I'm not making it for the final product. I love the process, I love being on set, I love my castmates. My favorite moments of my job are between 'action' and 'cut,' and growing up on a set, it's where I feel most safe, so I always try to say I don't ever want to do a project that I wouldn't stand on the firing line for because it's not a final product, it's about your experience." "But yeah, I thought I fucked up at that moment," she laughed, "but I guess I didn't." I surely hope so! You can catch Brenda on Running Point now and check out the clip of her remarks here.
