General Hospital sees Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud) is answering to somebody. A mysterious guy boss whose identity hasn’t been revealed. We’ll also consider whether he is a villain from GH’s past who has come back from the dead.
General Hospital Mystery: Who Is Britt Westbourne’s Sinister Boss?
Please hit that subscribe button if you’re not already following us as we dive into who might have been resurrected. Is this bad boss forcing Britt Westbourne to help him do evil science for very wicked reasons? I mean, Britt herself should be dead at this point. So, don’t tell me somebody can’t come back from the dead and be the boss.
She’s not dead. She’s living in Croatia at that posh resort that doubles as a sinister science center. Jason Morgan’s (Steve Burton) ex-lover is on a very short lease. She is being forced to work in the lab or else she won’t get her life-saving Huntington’s drug that she needs to keep going.
WSB, Five Poppies Resort, and the Evil Science Plotline
We know that Pascal (Marc Forget) is the manager of the Five Poppies Resort. He seems to be a minion of the big boss and the guy who’s handling Britt on a day-to-day basis. But Pascal is not Britt Westbourne’s boss. He’s middle management in this wicked regime.
Plus, we know bad guy Professor Henry Dalton (Daniel Goddard) and Evil Jenz Sidwell (Carlo Rota) are also working either with or for this mystery boss. The whole cabal is on Jack Brennan’s (Chris McKenna) radar and the WSB’s radar because whatever work they’re doing is dangerous and illegal.
GH History: WSB’s Past with Anna Devane, Valentin Cassadine & Andre Maddox
However, I think the WSB wants this scientific research to use for their own purposes. We know from Anna Devane (Finola Hughes), Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart), and Andre Maddox (Anthony Montgomery) that there’s been a lot of sketchy stuff in the past with WSB related to experiments, mind control, and all kinds of dodgy science.
Britt Westbourne herself was brought back from the dead. That’s another reason we’re wondering if General Hospital resurrected a villain from the past to be her big boss.
Theories: Who Could Be Britt Westbourne’s Big Boss?
We’ve heard some rumors about casting that have us thinking the mystery man might be somebody whose name we know. Even if they have a new face, the known name is significant.
The first person to consider as the big boss is Britt Westbourne’s dad, Cesar Faison (Anders Hove). If you’re a longtime General Hospital fan, you know that he’s Britt’s father and Liesel’s ex. He is a top-tier villain, one of the worst in GH’s history.
Cesar Faison: Could GH’s Infamous Villain Be Back?
Faison was absolutely diabolical. He was totally obsessed with Anna Devane. He was known for kidnapping, brainwashing, wearing masks to impersonate people, torture, and murder—all the bad stuff.
Faison was head of the DVX Cartel, which was kind of the flip side to the WSB. They had double agents working there. Anna Devane’s sister, Alexis Davis (Nancy Lee Grahn), was working with the DVX and at one point, Anna was too.
There was some stuff about their memories being overlapped. It’s messy. Helena Cassadine (Constance Towers) was part of that with the DVX. She’s another top villain I would love to see as the mystery boss.
Except we know it’s a man, not a woman. A bunch of people have clearly said “he” when talking about this person, including Sidwell, Britt Westbourne, Pascal, and others.
Is Britt’s Dad Controlling Her With the Huntington’s Drug?
Plus, Faison passed that Huntington’s disease gene on to Britt. The boss is supplying her with medication to control that illness. So maybe Faison developed the drug for himself and he’s using it to keep his daughter alive, keep himself alive, so she can work for him. So yeah, the bad dude may be Britt Westbourne’s bad dad.
Peter August: Could Wes Ramsey Return as Henrik Faison?
The second person to consider as the boss is Faison’s horrible son, Henrik Faison (Wes Ramsey), who is better known by the name Peter August. And yes, he’s also dead. But death is not an obstacle on a soap opera. Plus, he was taken away right after he expired, so that’s open-ended to me.
Peter is Britt’s half brother, so I could see him, in his own sick way, wanting to be close to his sister but also bullying her. Peter was always desperate for Faison’s approval, but that’s something he could never have. At one point, Britt Westbourne also wanted Faison’s approval, but she figured out that that wasn’t possible.
Peter August’s Dark Influence Over Britt Westbourne
Peter wanted to get to know Britt as his sister, but he did so many horrible things to so many people in Port Charles. There’s no way that she would ever trust him. But in Peter’s twisted mind, maybe this is his way of having Britt in his life, even if he is forcing her to be there. You know, I mean, that sounds like something Peter August would do.
He wants affection and attention desperately, but he goes after it in the most diabolical way. Don’t forget that Peter August was played by Wes Ramsey, who is still dating Laura Wright, who plays Carly Corinthos Spencer. So he does have that in with Frank Valentini. He could be back.
Could Nathan West Be the Big Boss on General Hospital?
Here’s another thing to consider while we are looking at the twisted branches of the Faison family tree. What if the boss is Britt Westbourne’s other dead brother, Nathan West (Ryan Paevey)? It’d be a big shocker since, despite being Faison’s son, Nathan was a truly good guy.
Liesel made sure that Nathan did not grow up around Faison. If you remember, Nathan West was raised by his aunt Madeline Reeves (Donna Mills) and thought she was his mom and that Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros) was his sister.
Nathan West’s Redemption or Downfall?
Of course, Nathan West was beloved and fans hated when he was killed off. Back then on General Hospital, Nathan West was trying to save his pregnant wife Maxie Jones (Kirsten Storms) from Faison. But then Faison shot Nathan. That was right before Faison found out Nathan was his son and that he had killed him.
Recently, we heard a rumor that Ryan Paevey might be back to General Hospital. I was wondering if he might be someone that was resurrected and this science is being practiced on him. Maybe he’s the big boss. That’d be cool. It would be a massive twist because Nathan West was good, and the big boss is bad.
A Dark Twist: Nathan West as GH’s Newest Villain?
It could be that Britt’s brother was resurrected and turned dark or was intentionally made to go dark. I think a dark Nathan West would be amazing to see. Amazing for Ryan Paevey to play, especially if he later somehow got redeemed.
If it’s a more Faison-esque version of Nathan West, that would explain him tormenting his sister Britt, which he ordinarily wouldn’t do. I would say the only way it’s Nathan is if something’s been done to turn him villainous.
Now, if you remember, after Faison died, General Hospital’s shrink Kevin Collins (Jon Lindstrom) had Faison’s brain in a jar to study it. That made me think about the WSB memory mapping. It’d be bizarre if it’s Faison’s memories inside of Nathan West.

Could the Cassadine Family Be Behind Britt’s Ordeal?
Now, if it’s not a Faison family member, another legacy family full of creepy characters is the Cassadines. There are plenty of dead family members that fans might enjoy seeing back. As we said, it’s not going to be Helena Cassadine because the boss is a man. A Cassadine makes sense because Liesel and Britt Westbourne both have ties to Cassadine men.
Victor Cassadine: Is He the Mysterious GH Villain?
So, they could have resurrected Victor Cassadine (Charles Shaughnessy). He’d be great. He was obsessed with Liesel. It could be Victor saved Britt Westbourne from the hook toxin and the Huntington’s because maybe Victor thinks that would get him in good with Liesel. Of course, Victor Cassadine was bombed to death by the WSB. But hey, you know, death doesn’t matter so much.
Spencer Cassadine: Could There Be a Shocking GH Comeback?
Our fifth and final idea kind of in the same vein as good guy Nathan West coming back is if they brought back Spencer Cassadine (Nicholas Chavez). Everybody would love to see Spencer Cassadine back even though Nicholas Chavez is not returning.
He’s way too busy, so the role would have to be recast. Now, Spencer is presumed dead and he generally was pretty good up to the time of his death. But first, his memories might have been mapped over with Victor Cassadine’s.
Also, Spencer had a pretty dark side as a kid. He is a Cassadine, so he’s chock full of evil genes. Also, Spencer was super close to Britt at one point. We’ll see who it is. But who are you hoping to find out is the big bad boss running the show?
