General Hospital spoilers and updates reveal that Brennan lovers are upset that Chris L. McKenna is confirmed to be exiting the ABC soap.
Brennan will be killed off as a part of the umbrella WSB storyline starting, but there seems to be a few more weeks since it all goes down in the fall.
Soap Opera Digest Confirmed The Exit
As reported by Soap Opera Digest, McKenna has been included in the latest updates regarding comings and goings on GH. He made his debut on General Hospital in February 2025, stepping in as the new Jack Brennan.
The role was originally portrayed by Charles Mesure, who departed shortly after; the news of Chris L. McKenna’s potential exit from GH has taken many fans by surprise.
There is currently no information on how much longer Brennan will remain in Port Charles-although other trusted sources say he will meet a tragic end.

Having quickly won over fans, there is a glimmer of hope that his departure might take an unexpected turn.
Fan Petitions To Keep The Character Went Out All Over Social Media
Fan petitions to keep the character because the actor is so beloved went out all over social media-although other petitions for other actors have failed to sway the powers that be at General Hospital.
The last successful fan petition involved Rebecca Herbst, as Elizabeth Baldwin and that was in 2011. Nevertheless, fans keep trying to forestall what seems to be the inevitable-but as anyone who has watched General Hospital for any length of time knows, death isn’t always forever!
And it doesn’t always have to be a villain who returns from the dead either-case in point, both Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) and Robert Scorpio (Tristan Rogers) were presumed dead and were not.

Neither were Robin Scorpio-Drake (Kimberly McCullough), Jake Webber (Hudson West) and more recently, Sonny Corinthos, (Maurice Benard) Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison) Nikolas Cassadine (Adam Huss) and Jason Morgan (Steve Burton).
There Are Several Ways Brennan Could Be Taken Out
There are several ways Brennan could be taken out, and going by the hints of the WSB umbrella storyline that have been leaked, he could be killed in action for the WSB.
Other suspicions are his incurring the wrath of Willow Cain (Katelyn MacMullen) with a fatal outcome, and fans who’ve been watching know he’s already on her “to do” list! It’s just as possible that Drew could eliminate him to keep the leverage he has on Drew buried.
They could have him simply disappear and be presumed dead like a few others in recent GH history whose bodies have not been found.
It’s even possible his death could be faked like Cassius Faison’s (Ryan Paevey), or he could go into a WSB-style witness protection!
