Nicolas Bechtel has played young Spencer Cassadine since May of 2013, but his role went from front and center, to making appearances here and there, due to script and outside projects.
Little Spencer Cassadine isn’t so little anymore. General Hospital news has confirmed that Bechtel is out as GH’s Spencer, son of Nikolas Cassadine (Marcus Coloma) and the late, Courtney Mathews (Alicia Leigh Willis).
General Hospital spoilers reveal, a grown Spencer is the one who has been stalking Ava Jerome (Maura West) and Spencer’s own father, Nikolas, causing the two newlyweds to spilt. Despite their love for one another, Ava has walked away from her marriage out of fear and a way to hopefully protect her daughter Avery Corinthos (Ava and Grace Scarola). Spencer’s plan to get his father and Ava apart is working, but I lit on Ava. Nikolas doesn’t see eye to eye with Ava on this. She wants to be apart to protect Avery, but Nik isn’t scared and believes he can catch the stalker before any harm is done.
General Hospital comings and goings news reports that the new Spencer will be played by Nicholas Alexander Chavez. This up and coming actor has a clean slate in the field, making General Hospital his only accreditation on his IMDb page. Chavez has a seemingly new IG page, where he has shared only two posts, but has made an obviously friend connection with GH’s William Lipton who plays Cameron Webber. In the IG post below, William and Alexander go back and forth in friendly conversation.
We look forward to seeing more of Chavez in this role and are excited to see what tricks (not so little) Spencer has up his sleeve!
