Jason Cook Joins "General Hospital"

Huge news: SOAPnet.com can exclusively confirm that Jason Cook is joining the cast of "General Hospital." Jason is best known as Shawn Brady, the "Days of Our Lives" character he played from 1999 to 2006. Shawn was one half of "Shawn and Belle," known by longtime fans as "Shelle" -- the pair who put the "super" back in supercouple in fictional Salem. And just who played Belle? That's right: Kirsten Storms, aka resident "General Hospital" fashionista Maxie Jones.

Jason will be playing a doctor who joins the staff at Port Charles's infamous hospital; no first airdate has been set, but he'll likely start appearing in June. We CAN tell you his character will be crossing paths with Maxie very early on. Could there be a "Shelle" redux? You'll have to stay tuned for more details!

What do you think is in store for Jason and his character?

NOOOOOO!!! I watch GH!!!

YEEEEES!!!!!!! I watch DAYS!!

I can't believe "Shelle" will be reunited. Like 5 years wasn't enough of them. PUKE!!!

Jesus Christ.......

Oh Lord.....

Oh dear God........

I guess Maxie is finally getting a love interest.

When I read the topic, I thought he was going to be a Michael recast.

I wouldn't doubt it. They tried with Lane Davies/NLG, and Stephen Nichols and MBEvans - why not with Jason and Kirsten. It's gonna bomb but at least they say they tried, right?

When I read the topic, I thought it was late April Fools joke. This is too funny for words. This is your whole show for tonight Ryan.

This is absolutely hilarious..They tried this with SN and MBE in the 90's and it didn't work..But i'm guessing Jason Cook will probably improve while at GH, just like KS improved and FF improved at OLTL..

But so glad he's not coming back to Days, i couldn't stand him..

I seriously have no words.

If you look at the Days soap city board, fans are ecstatic..It just shows how different opinions are from board to board...I'm ecstatic that JC won't be returning to Days..

PnL material for sure! Unfortunately it probably won't be so funny to those fans who love SpinMax.

Frak. I hated his Shawn. He always seemed kind of dim. Maybe he'll improve? Please?

Admit it Kevin...you loved him on Days.

I seriously have no words.

Oops..I forgot GH is the only show you watch now. This sucks for you.

This sounds like a Frons wet dream. He did the same with Stephen Nichols and MBE.
