There’s a new Lulu in town and of course the internet has a lot to say about it!
As many General Hospital fans probably know by now, All My Chidreln alumni Alexa Havins is now the new Lulu in Port Charles.
The character was last portrayed by Emme Rylan, who expressed her disappointment in not being asked back to reprise her role.
Emme said in August, “GH has decided to recast Lulu. Although I’m very disappointed with their choice, I am glad to finally have closure. (And thank goodness JH brought all of you people into my life! Love you guys!)”
And while there were a lot of people who expressed their dismay in not seeing Emme back on the canvas as well, there also seems to be a lot of people who are excited to see Alexa in the role.
It goes without saying that the internet sure did have a lot to say about the matter on social media.
Some even commented with, “This is going to be dynamo! Alexis has the energy Emme Rylan had, but the acting chops and abilities of Julie Berman, which I think is the perfect mixture as the character will mature. I do find it to be symbolical that Havins is in, Monaco is out.”
Another critic wrote, “Wow, I love Alexa the last time I saw on TV was Torchwood Miracle Day. Still married to Justin Bruening who played Jamie on #AllMyChildren congratulations.”
“Still does not absolve #GH of use of minority characters or firing of Kelly Monaco. Bringing Lucky and Holly not enough.”
And then there was this comment as well: “Wow wow wow! This was my dream casting for years. I’m so excited about this. Alexa is amazing. Welcome to #GH I’m so excited about this.”

The truth is, regardless of who else is or isn't coming back, or who has been let go, the casting of Alexa Havins is the best decision GH has made in years! (Even better than bringing Lucky back, which is awesome and HUGE IMO). Nothing else thats going on behind the scenes has anything to do with Alexa. It isn't her fault Julie or Emme aren't coming back. So I just hope people will give her a chance instead of hating her just because she isn't them. So far, I've only read positive reactions and hope it stays that way.
