Steve Burton is swapping soaps.

Burton shared the news alongside hisGHcostars Laura Wright and Kelly Monaco.

You know what they say: when one door closes, Wright began as she walked through a doorframe.

Monaco, who appeared through a second door, then added, another door opens.

Then, Burton walked through his own back-lit door.

Happy anniversary,General Hospital, he said.

Big things are coming to Port Charles.

He waspreviously fired from the seriesfor refusing to comply with its COVID-19 vaccine mandate in 2021.

Which, you know, hurts, but this is also personal freedom to me.

I don’t think anyone should lose their livelihood over this.

But with that being said, you know me, he added.

Ill always be grateful for my time atGeneral Hospital.

I love it there.

I grew up there.

I grew up with some of you.

I’ll always be grateful.

And I believe when one door closes, multiple doors open.

That’s always been my perspective, so I am excited to see what the future brings."
