The halls of General Hospital are about to add a few fresh faces.

We'll start with, Bruce Weitz, who has been nabbed to play a character named Anthony Zacchara. The actor is best known for his portrayal of Sgt. Mick Belker on seven seasons of the ensemble police drama Hill Street Blues. More recently, Weitz has guest-starred on Grey's Anatomy.

He's scheduled to make his General Hospital appearance on October 12.

Next, Jay Pickett has traded in his Port Charles alter ego, Frank Scanlon, for the recurring part of Detective David Harper on General Hospital.

Pickett's appearance on General Hospital won't be his first. Back in March of last year, he filled in for a day as Lorenzo Alcazar, a role normally played by Ted King. For the latest role, expect to see Picket on October 9.

Lastly, Claire Coffee (pictured) will join General Hospital (as Nadine) on October 5.
