General Hospital

Unfortunate casting news today for General Hospital fans:

Three-time Emmy winner Sarah Brown will be exiting the show in November.

"Her departure from Port Charles will be buzz-worthy for November sweeps," said a spokesperson. "Stay tuned as we move towards Claudia's exit from the canvas."

The actress, who debuts on the series in 1996, poste the following message on her Twitter page:

"Claudia Zacchara has been a wild ride, every ride stops when the music ends. The music stops mid Oct...  It's been nice being back at GH, but it's time for the character to come to an end, at least for me... Have a film in the works for Nov — a lead role to die for — and we shall [see] what else comes up. Thank you for your support, means the world!"
