General Hospital Alum Réal Andrews Lands “Biggest Role” of His Career on New CBS Soap

Former Marcus Taggert portrayer joins Beyond The Gates in mysterious new role

Well, GH fans, looks like we’re saying goodbye to another familiar face in Port Charles! Réal Andrews, our beloved Marcus Taggert, is moving on to what he’s calling the opportunity of a lifetime. Can you believe it? The actor has just signed on with CBS’s upcoming soap, Beyond The Gates, and from what he’s telling Soaps In Depth, this isn’t just any old role!

“Biggest role of my life,” Andrews gushed to the magazine, clearly over the moon about this new chapter. And honestly, who can blame him? He’s absolutely beaming about joining what he considers “the biggest and best network,” complete with top-tier directors, producers, and writers. Talk about a dream come true!

Now, before you start bombarding social media with questions about his character (trust me, we’re all dying to know!), Andrews is keeping those lips sealed tight thanks to an NDA. But… he did drop a little hint that when the news finally breaks, it’s going to “blow” our minds! Color me intrigued!

“Everything I’ve done for my whole life is for this moment right here,” Andrews shared, practically bursting with excitement. “It’s truly the most amazing role of my life.” Don’t you just love seeing actors this passionate about their work? He’s promised to fill us in on all the juicy details when the time is right, so keep those eyes peeled, soap fans!

For those of you who’ve been wondering about Taggert’s rather abrupt exit from Port Charles (and trust me, you’re not alone), let’s rewind to July 2023. Remember that gut-wrenching storyline where Taggert discovered he wasn’t actually Trina Robinson’s biological father? What a bombshell that was! After the DNA results came in, we saw Taggert spiral into alcohol dependency, but sadly, that storyline never got the deeper exploration it deserved.

Instead, Andrews took to Instagram Live to share the news that his “chapter” with GH was officially closing, though he made sure to emphasize what an “amazing journey” it had been. And what a journey it was! Did you know Taggert first strutted into Port Charles way back in 1996? That’s quite a legacy!

Speaking of legacies, this isn’t Andrews’ first rodeo in the soap world – not by a long shot! Before becoming our beloved Taggert, he made his mark on pretty much every major daytime drama you can think of. Days of Our Lives? Check. All My Children? Been there. As the World Turns? Done that. Even Santa Barbara got a taste of his talent!

While it’s always tough to say goodbye to a Port Charles resident (especially one who’s been stirring up drama since the ’90s!), it’s exciting to see what’s next for Andrews. I don’t know about you, but I’m already setting my DVR for Beyond The Gates. With him promising such mind-blowing developments, how can we not be intrigued?
