Soap opera General Hospital will have a new guest star this fall. It’s James Franco!

The 31-year-old Golden Globe winner will guest star on ABC’s drama for a lengthy story and multi-episode, as confirmed by the network’s rep. Franco will play a mystery person who comes to the soap opera’s town of Port Charles. The recurring role will begin Nov. 20, and he will stay for about two months.
