Not sure who she's playing but she's filming with Shawn and TJ. Might be TJ's mom????

She's stunning!

A black woman on this show [who is NOT Epiphany] is needed and welcomed, but the canvas is just too packed. You cannot do justice to this character or any character will so many.

I have a feeling this will boil down to "You better watch what you wish for".

What is this actress' name

Vanessa Antoine.

So is this the black woman they were casting for last year?

I think that was dropped, but recently, pressure was applied to Rank and moRon regarding black characters. They are either non existent or remain at the back of the bus.

Vanessa Antoine.

Yeah I saw her on Haven & Being Erica

Does the character have a name? With my luck she will be related to felix but i would just love it if she was tj's mom although she looks a bit young for the part. But yeah shes a looker

Yeah I saw her on Haven & Being Erica

does she have an imdb page? Looking for some info and cant find any.

I see. Well, if ABC's history with black actors holds out she'll go on to do great things after she leaves GH.

She does. I thought she was a bit young to be TJ's mother, but then I remember that 34 year old Kelly Sullivan was playing a character that grew up with 60 year old Sonny Corinthos.

How many characters on GH's canvas does this make? Two hundred?

Too bad she won't be casted as a Ward

Dont know if that would work but now that u mention it she could be a keesha recast. AND TJ's mom. That would be perfect.

She could be working for DCF and be asked to do social work via general hospital like Laura did when she managed some sort of outreach program back two decades ago or so. I remember helena making fun of laura back when lucky died the first recast ago.

I believe it was the casting call from last year. Things just got pushed back and casting in general can take awhile.

No doubt she is TJ's mom. I'm glad Shawn and TJ are actually getting a story of their own and a character to prop them instead of them always propping others. Fingers crossed FV and RC don't hack all of their characters to bits in the process!

This is a contract role, just FYI.

Yes, but let's not relegate her to the "black stories". Check out Hill on YR!
