Ryan Paevey is Returning to ‘General Hospital’ with a New Role

Ryan Paevey, known for his role as Detective Nathan West on ‘General Hospital’ from 2013 to 2018, is returning to the ABC soap opera. While fans may remember that Nathan West was tragically killed by his father, Cesar Faison, Paevey will likely be playing a new character rather than reprising his old role. Paevey revealed that his return was prompted by a message from GH executive producer Frank Valentini, leading to his first day of filming on August 18. Paevey’s character will debut in September. In a recent fan event, Paevey hinted at this exciting news, teasing fans with updates about his future projects. Paevey had taken a brief hiatus from acting, citing struggles with his mental health and personal issues, including being scammed and needing to be closer to his mother, who was battling lung cancer. Paevey’s return to the show has sparked curiosity, with many fans hoping his new character will cross paths with Maxie, who was close to his previous character, Nathan.
