General Hospital Spoilers: 3 Things That Will Happen When Lulu Wakes Up – Roadmap for Post-Coma Drama
General Hospital (GH) spoilers reveal that the show’s gearing up for Lulu Spencer’s (last played by Emme Rylan) coma awakening, so it’s time to start thinking about what her story will look like moving forward.
Unfortunately, GH is going in another direction with Lulu, so they’re recasting the role instead of bringing Emme Rylan back.
That feels like a mistake when fans have already had to adjust to multiple recasts over the last few years.
It would’ve been so easy to lean into the familiarity of Rylan’s version of Lulu and heighten the drama that’s coming up even more.
Since the show’s recasting the part instead, we’ll have to get used to someone else playing Lulu this fall.
Putting that issue aside, there are still ways for GH to make Lulu’s comeback a success.
There are three things that need to happen when Lulu wakes up, so let’s talk about them.
1) Lulu’s Bittersweet Reunions and Mom-to-Teens Adjustment
Of course, Lulu will be thrilled to reunite with her kids upon awakening, but she needs to be heartbroken over all the time she’s lost, too.
It’ll be tough for Lulu to wake up and realize she’s missed so much of Charlotte Cassadine (Scarlett Fernandez) and Rocco Falconeri’s (Finn Carr) childhood.
Charlotte will inevitably come back and join Rocco on canvas, but Lulu may struggle to be a mom to these teenagers she doesn’t really know anymore.
This would be an excellent way to bond Lulu and Dante Falconeri (Dominic Zamprogna) again as he helps her navigate, which brings us to our next post-coma development.
2) Lulu and Dante Slowly Surrender to Love
It would be out of character for Dante to drop Sam McCall (Kelly Monaco) like a hot potato the second Lulu wakes up, but we’re already seeing the groundwork for Dante and Lulu’s eventual reunion.
Lulu was going to tell Dante that she still loved him before she fell into a coma, so Dante needs to get updates on that and struggle with his own feelings.
The show has the perfect opportunity for a satisfying slow-burn reunion with a lot of emotional payoff.
3) Lulu’s Fury Unleashed
There’s a chance Cyrus Renault (Jeff Kober) might be the one to donate part of his liver and save Lulu’s life.
However, Lulu has every right to hate Cyrus until the end of time since he caused the explosion that put her in a coma to begin with.
Lulu needs to be able to unleash her fury on Cyrus – and the same goes for Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) once Lulu finds out she shot Charlotte and nearly killed her.
Lulu deserves to have a huge reaction to all this, so let’s hope she gets the chance to go off on both Cyrus and Anna in a big way.
Regardless, our GH predictions point to plenty of shocking Lulu developments once she’s awake, so we’ll pass along more news on the upcoming conflict and chaos.
General Hospital spoilers say Lulu’s future will come with some curveballs and set the stage for some great autumn action!
