General Hospital finally revealed who shot Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison) - but does he know the identity of the assailant? "There is so much left to unfold," General Hospital head writer Chris Van Etten teased to Soap Opera Digest in January 2026. "Revealing who shot Drew is, I think, the end of chapter one or chapter two, depending on how you're constructing it." To understand what happened, let's take a trip back to September 2025 when a mysterious figure dressed in black shot Drew in a surprising twist - but he did not die.
