General Hospital Spoilers: Jon Lindstrom Opens Up About Ryan Chamberlain’s Final Days

Speaking to Soap Opera Digest in a new interview, the actor makes it pretty clear that it wasn’t his decision to kill off Ryan. He said, “If the powers-that-be figure that there’s a character that has to be taken off the canvas in order to move other characters forward, that’s the way it is. And, you know, if Ryan is gone [again] after 25 years of having been thought dead, 25 years from now, they could just bring him back! To me, it’s neither here nor there. I mean, I would always be sad to say good-bye to such a terrific, colorful character, but as I’m fond of saying, ‘Every show closes.’ I’ve just been around too long to let something like this leave any kind of mark other than, ‘That’s just what we do,’ or at least, ‘It’s part of what we do.’”

And while a character’s demise usually means that a soap opera star doesn’t have a job anymore, that’s not the case with Ryan at all. That’s because he still gets to play Ryan’s twin, Kevin. For fans, that’s a huge sigh of relief because they absolutely love seeing Jon on the canvas, regardless of what character he’s playing.

Jon said, “I ultimately think, despite all the difficulties that they’ve had over the years between the two of them, it’s still a death in the family. I didn’t play it sobbing and crying, though Kevin does believe he’s gone. I played it as if there’s a realization that this person is never coming back, which is what I think what happens when you lose a family member and that kind of hits you.”
