Rogers first appeared on General Hospital in 1980, 17 years after the long-running medical drama series’s debut. His character, Robert Scorpio, was killed off in 1992, but — in true soap opera fashion — Scorpio returned, alive, in 2006.
His last on-screen appearance was in the show’s 62nd season on November 12, 2024, when he left town with his ex-wife Holly Sutton, per Soap Opera Digest.
“I’ve seen this show at its best and at something less than that,” he told PEOPLE in 2023 for the show’s 60th anniversary.
In addition to General Hospital, Rogers also had recurring roles on The Bay, Studio City and The Young and the Restless.
