GH costars didn't even know Finola Hughes was masquerading as Alex

General Hospital's Finola Hughes (Anna Devane) reveals that not even her co-stars knew she's been playing Anna's twin, Alex.

Talk about a nicely held soap opera secret. When General Hospital executives decided to feature a plot line twist in which Finola Hughes' Anna Devane was going to be secretly replaced by the character's twin sister, Alex Devane, they didn't tell anyone but Finola herself that she'd be playing her former All My Children character -- meaning her costars had no idea what was going on when the actress started behaving rather strangely.

"It has been really interesting to watch the actors' faces fall as they've been informed that they were actually performing with somebody else," she reveals to Soap Opera Digest. "Most of them were like, 'I thought that there was something weird! I thought that there was something off!'"
