Soap fave finally shared the news his fans have been waiting to hear.
Former General Hospital star William deVry finally shared the news his fans have been waiting to hear when he announced his return to our television screens by sharing a photo of a script in a social media post.

Last summer, deVry spoke out about his hopes to get back on our screens soon and noted he was waiting for “really good stuff”. It looks like he found it.
The actor, also known for his role as the Logan sister’s beloved brother, Storm, on Bold & Beautiful and the detestable Michael Cambias on All My Children, previously weighed in on a possible return to General Hospital as Julian Jerome at a panel one year ago. He reportedly said that he’d only come back for a short-term arc and cast a certain amount of doubt on being brought back at all considering his character appeared to be really most sincerely dead.
Given that outlook, it’s not too surprising then, that deVry’s announcement did not surround a comeback as Julian, but instead teased a juicy role in a primetime hit series.
In an Instagram post, deVry shared a photo of a script from the revamped Quantam Leap and captioned it simply, “Season 2. Updates to come.” The script looked to be from the third episode of the second season, which may be when he’s slated to make his debut, and was entitled, “Close Encounters”.
Soap actors on hand to offer enthusiasm and congratulations included Michelle Stafford (ex-Nina, General Hospital, Phyllis, Young & Restless), Bold & Beautiful’s Ashley Jones (Bridget), and his former All My Children co-star, Alicia Minshew (Kendall Hart).
No one was happier for him, however, than his lovely and supportive wife, soap vet Rebecca Staab (Guiding Light, Loving, Young & Restless, and ex-Elizabeth Barrington, Port Charles). She took to Twitter to cheer on her husband, reposting his script photo and enthusing, “Congrats to my beloved!”
Congrats to my beloved!! 🎉🥰 @WilliamdeVry1 #QuantumLeap https://t.co/CxKXcaxgS5

<p>“Ugh,” we can just hear you saying. “Why is <em>she</em> on this list?” Frankly, it’s <em>because</em> the mere mention of the supervixen’s name can make you say, “Ugh.” Troublemakers who leave <em>that</em> lasting an impression are hard to come by — and harder to forget!</p>

<p>Yes, these two lovebirds have to share an entry. How could they not? From the moment Nikolas Cassadine and Courtney Matthews’ son was reintroduced as a brooding young man, we’ve been <em>all</em> about his ultimate pairing with beleaguered heroine Trina.</p>

<p>Any day now, we expect to see a comeback by the psycho whose machinations kept Port Charles on its toes for decades. So unrelentingly wicked was Peter August’s Daddy Dearest, he seems like exactly the type to whom even Satan would say, “Oh, <em>hell</em>, no!”</p>

<p>Despite having one dad who’s a career criminal (hey there, Sonny Corinthos) and another who never met a plot that he wouldn’t hatch (R.I.P, A.J. Quartermaine), Carly’s son is the straightest of arrows. Unless, that is, he’s out for revenge; in that case, all bets are off.</p>

<p>Once a fearsome villain, Liz’s <span style="text-decoration: line-through">latest</span> late husband — thanks to the removal of that pesky homicidal brain tumor — became known as not only one of Port Charles’ biggest sweethearts but one of its funniest residents, too.</p>

<p>Talk about carpe’ing the diem! After lingering in a coma for decades, the heiress made up for lost time by losing her marbles, stealing Ava Jerome’s newborn and, ultimately, displacing Carly Corinthos from her spot in Sonny’s bed.</p>

<p>Arguably the ultimate good-and-evil-twin pairing, these siblings have been making the residents of Port Charles say, “Oh, brother!” since the early 1990s. And though Ryan’s reign of terror is supposedly over, we’ll believe it when we <em>don’t</em> see it pick up anew.</p>

<p>Jason Morgan’s onetime ride-or-die boasts an enviably all-over-the-place soap-character resumé that’s taken her from con artist and stepfather seductress to action heroine, “widowed” wife and mom. Along that bumpy road, the one thing she’s never been… is boring!</p>

<p>Rumors of the “reformed” con artist’s death were, thankfully, greatly exaggerated. What has never been overstated, however — and perhaps can’t be — is that she is as crafty as she is beautiful.</p>

<p>You know how you <em>know</em> that Carly is one of the all-time greats on <em>General Hospital</em>? The character’s withstood two and a half recasts (from Sarah Brown to Tamara Braun to, briefly, Jennifer Bransford, then Laura Wright) to remain an unstoppable force of nature, a freight train you’d be terrified to be in front of but more often than not find yourself willing to get behind.</p>
