General Hospital didn’t recast the role of Lucky Spencer, the TV son of Genie Francis (Laura) and the late Anthony Geary (ex-Luke), lightly back in 1999 after Daytime Emmy-winner Jonathan Jackson left Port Charles for other projects.

Actor Jacob Young (ex-Rick, The Bold and the Beautiful), who stars in the independent film A Murder Between Friends (which he also directed), was up for the coveted role. A chance run-in with a pair of Young’s former B&B castmates set in serendipitous motion a call that played a role in his move to Port Charles.
