It didn’t take long for the fans to start speculating who Slezak would play on the ABC soap. The rumor mill ran wild that Slezak was a recast for Monica following General Hospital icon Leslie Charleson’s death in January.
That is not the case, and it’s a good thing because fans were not here for a Monica recast. Charleson played Monica on the ABC soap for over 40 years, debuting in 1977.
Slezak’s official fan club has confirmed the actress will be playing a new character when she checks into General Hospital. According to her fan club website, Slezak will begin taping in September, but she doesn’t know who she is playing yet.
The timing of Slezak revealing she’s playing a new character and Martin’s curiosity about Monica led some fans to believe that Slezak will be Monica’s long-lost sister.
If Erika Slezak is playing Monica's sister when she appears on #GH , how cool would it be to hear her say, "this is my house now. Monica gave it to me" after the reading of the will? LOL You know somebody has to say it in Monica's honor. #GeneralHospital
— Michelle Smith aka Chellemo (@Chellemo) July 31, 2025Having a soap icon like Slezak help give Charleson a send-off worthy of the legend she is would be a gift for fans. Make sure to keep watching to find out exactly who Slezak is playing and if fan theories about her being Monica’s sister are right.
