Looking up the actors who played Philip 'Chance' Chancellor before John Driscoll is blowing my freaking mind.
So obviously there is Penn Badgley, who is having a career high right now with YOU. Then there is Thomas Dekker who has maintained a steady and successful career as an actor ever since he left.
But even the lesser known children who played him are actors that are instantly recognizable to me. I can't wrap my brain around the fact that "Uh-huh" from the The Little Rascals film played Chance. I watched that film all the time as a kid and he was my favourite part. Courtland Mead also voiced Gus from the animated show Recess, another huge part of my childhood.
There there is Alex Lind who I instantly recognized as the kid from One Fine Day, with Michelle Pfeiffer and George Clooney. He also had the unfortunate task of trying to continue the Home Alone franchise.
Both of them don't look too shabby either from the most recent pictures I can find.
Now, Nicolas Poppone I don't recognize at all, but I found out he left acting at 13 to study violin. He uploaded this video in July 2018!
I know this post was just random babbling no one should care about, but I needed to get it out of my system.
