General Hospital (GH) spoilers and updates reveal the character (Marshall) has viewers speculating on his identity and motive for being in Port Charles. The man who portrays him, however, is no stranger to daytime viewers and has a special connection to the world of entertainment.
Robert Gossett is the new face in Port Charles, and in the credits he is listed as only “the stalker.” He first showed up in the Savoy seeming to take an interest in Curtis Ashford (Donnell Turner). He later went to GH and talked to TJ Ashford (Taj Bellow). Some fans of the ABC soap believe he might be the father of Curtis who believes TJ is his grandson. The identity of this character is being closely guarded but the life of the man who portrays him is an open book.
General Hospital viewers might recognize Gossett from his role as Woody Stumper on the NBC soap Passions from 2001-2004. His career began in the late ‘80s, and he has appeared on numerous television series which include Amen, Cheers, The Cosby Show, Dragnet,7th Heaven, The Closer, The Oath, Dark Angel and Diagnosis Murder. His movie roles include Over the Brooklyn Bridge, Batman Returns, and White Man’s Burden.
Gossett was born on March 3, 1954, and is the first cousin of the legendary actor Lou Gossett Jr. He is married to theater director Michele Gossett and has two sons, Caleb and Luke Gossett. The actor initially was a theater major at the New York High School for the Performing Arts. His first role was right after high school in an off-Broadway production of One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest In 2005, 2007, 2008, 2009, and 2010 he was Nominated-Screen Actors Guild Awards-Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Drama Series:
Curtis recently told Portia Robinson (Brook Kerr) that when he was young, his father died of a heart attack. Spoilers tease and some viewers suspect that this may have been a cover story that Stella Henry (Vernee Watson) came up with. GH fans also believe that “Auntie” has other secrets and that the family will soon be faced with other bombshell revelations. Gossett’s character showing up at the bar Curtis owns right after the conversation with Portia about his father and visiting TJ is probably not a coincidence.

I like the actor who plays Marshall, I hope he is a good guy. We have more than enough Crooks on GH!!!
The actor is fine as I have seen him in other ventures, but definitely isn't the right choice to fill the role as Curtis' father, especially under the circumstances in which he has been presented.
