Nearly 30 years since Rena Sofer first joined “General Hospital” as a fast-talking Brooklynite with long, colorful fingernails, she’s returning to the series for a short run. She only played Lois Cerullo for around three years, but was cemented as a fan favorite. She will join her ex-husband, Wally Kurth in some scenes. He also plays her ex-husband, Ned Ashton, on the long-running soap. She said returning to set was an odd mixture of familiarity and being a fish out of water. But the moment was full circle, as she prepares to leave Los Angeles.
