Andrew Hawkes is Leaving the Show | General Hospital Cast

Let’s be honest—Colum has been nothing short of a disaster for Port Charles. Everywhere he goes, chaos follows, and his presence has poisoned nearly every corner of the town. But if you’ve been watching closely, you can probably feel it too—his time is running out. It’s no longer a question of if he’ll fall, but who will be the one to bring him down.

All signs are pointing toward an explosive confrontation, especially between Colum and Swell. The tension between them has been building for weeks, and once Sar uncovers the devastating truth—that Colum is responsible for his son’s death—there’s no doubt things will turn deadly. Sar won’t be looking for justice… he’ll be looking for revenge.

Meanwhile, Cashiers is taking a surprising turn. Instead of running from the danger, he’s stepping right back into it, risking everything to protect Charles. It feels like the writers are steering him toward redemption, possibly setting him up as the unexpected hero who finally stops Colum once and for all.

Adding to the pressure, G arrives with undeniable proof exposing Colum as a double agent. With nowhere left to hide, Colum is cornered. And let’s be real—a simple prison sentence doesn’t feel like enough for everything he’s done. Fans have been vocal about wanting a more permanent ending, and it looks like the show might deliver just that.

This also marks the apparent exit of Andrew Hawkes, who brought Colum to life in a way that made viewers love to hate him. His performance was so convincing it made the character almost unbearable—and that’s a true testament to his talent.

As the final chapter unfolds, the only question left is: how will Colum meet his end? In a dramatic, fiery showdown… or a quieter, darker fate? However it happens, one thing’s certain—his story is about to come to a brutal close.
