Viewers of Netflix are likely to know Chase Stokes as one of the teens of the wealth -hunting teen drama, "external banks". The series follows a group of teenagers living on the island in the external banks of Northern California, as they went in search of the legendary lost wealth. Stoke plays Johnon B. Rutage, the leader of the group, whose father disappeared while looking for the same wealth. In the search for wealth, children hope to find out what happened to him. Season 4 debuted on Netflix last year and "External Banks" have been renewed for the fifth seasonbroadcasting in 2026, which will bring the series to the end.

Before the "external banks" appeared, Stokes was ready for another role that the actor would know with an even larger audience. In 2018 The younger Jan eventually played it Alden Ehrenreich, who recently joined Marvel's film universe In the "Ironi -Early Heart" in Disney+. However, the role almost went to Stokes instead. The actor "external banks" had previously revealed that he had "quite deep" in the casting process for the new takeover of Jan Solo. We can only speculate on why the role of the end went to Ehreneich, but Stokes was apparently close to sharing his image of the iconic "Starwalks War" with the world. Whether that would save the most famous film of the franchise "War of Starwells" is the assumption of someone.

During 2020 Buzzfeed The interview with the cast of "external banks", the leading series of Netflix, were asked about the roles for which they failed. Stoke revealed that when "Solo" was in the works in Lucasfilm, he not only audited for the lead role, but approached the section. Reminiscent of his Process of Audition of War of StarwellesStoke said:

"I have one good. I don't know if I told you guys this, but when they made the reboot of solo Jan, I got closer to casting to play Jan Solo. I think I read five times. And then they threw a 34-year-old man, so ..."

Stoke was slightly out with Ehrenreich's age estimate - the actor was only 28 years old when Solo came out and 30 when this interview happened. Born in 1989, Ehreneich is actually just three years older than Stoke. However, since Stokes is still playing a teenager on the "external banks" in the early 30s, it is fair to say that he would bring younger energy to Jan Solo.

One of the few criticisms of Han of Ehreneich - which was perfectly executed - was that the actor's proximity In the age to Ford in the original war on the starvests The films made it difficult to believe that his already grown up Jan would grow into the character seen in "New Hope". Stoke's casting may have fixed at least one problem that fans had "solo".
