GH Casting News: Ingo Rademacher Fired! Annie Ilonzeh Out?

Ingo Rademacher (Jax) is leaving GENERAL HOSPITAL. "It is with mixed emotions and regret that I write this note to you, my fans and colleagues," Rademacher says in a statement. "After 15 years on GH portraying Jax I must say goodbye. I'm fired.

"Yes, I know that's sounds bad but sometimes little birds need a shove out of the nest to find their wings... better late then never? I'm trying to find some humor in all this. Even though this was not my call, I think my GH days were almost up anyway."

Annie Ilonzeh (Maya) will be resurfacing on GENERAL HOSPITAL on Monday, June 6, it looks like it will be her swan song at least for the time according to Soaps in Depth.
