Exclusive: Adrienne Barbeau Checks Into "General Hospital"
Jun 24, 2010

If you can hold your own against Maude, those mobsters in Port Charles should be a cinch!
Adrienne Barbeau is joining ABC's "General Hospital" as a tough-as-nails broad called Suzanne Stanwyck (best soap name ever!) who runs a charity agency for children in Italy.
Suzanne will be closely involved with Vanessa Marcil's Brenda.
"GH" head writer Bob Guza says we'll first see the women working together in Rome — Marcil hits the air August 11; Barbeau on August 12 — and they will eventually make their way to Port Charles together.
"Despite her hard edge, Suzanne has a lot of love for others, including Brenda — she's her confidante, so to speak," Guza says.
"As we get to know Suzanne better, she'll have a surprising feminine side."
Barbeau will be around for several weeks at least, maybe longer if that "feminine" thing works out. In fact, the ball-busting Ms. Stanwyck sounds like a perfect match for that louse Luke Spencer!
