Members Bright Eyes Posted October 29, 2021 Members Share Posted October 29, 2021 Maybe it's because the edible I took is starting to kick in, but he looks like a mix of John Driscoll and Donny Boaz. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members xtr Posted October 29, 2021 Members Share Posted October 29, 2021 I think he looks like Bradley Cooper a bit in that second picture. I do wonder if they have finally recast Chance again. I wonder why they couldn't get Justin Gaston back, but maybe he actually didn't want to be in that role longer term. I would have taken him, because I think he was a nice fit for the role. I also really liked John Driscoll in the role. John did take a break from acting and joined the military, but I believe he recently went back to acting, and was doing an audio drama/podcast soap opera. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfan770 Posted October 29, 2021 Members Share Posted October 29, 2021 I had seen this earlier today but wasn’t going to share until I saw official confirmation lol but this was the pic I kept seeing plastered all over, he looks great. Can he act though? Please register in order to view this content 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Paul Raven Posted October 29, 2021 Members Share Posted October 29, 2021 Often those publicity pics make them look better than onscreen. i would have been happy with John Driscoll. We have nu Faith, nu Noah etc so an 'original' would be nice. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members cattykittens Posted October 29, 2021 Members Share Posted October 29, 2021 (edited) He has a four minute demo tape on IMBd and he looks like he can do comedy & drama. https://www.imdb.com/name/nm7903324/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0 I think he's adorable and quite the upgrade. The challenge will be the sub-par writing, some actors can deal with it better than others.

Members Taoboi Posted October 30, 2021 Members Share Posted October 30, 2021 I hollered at edible. That said...I prefer Gaston (and John D.), but he looks like such a Bradley Cooper/Scott Speedman hybrid, I would be down for this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Liberty City Posted October 30, 2021 Members Share Posted October 30, 2021 He visually works more than Donny Boaz did, but I'm still baffled as to why Justin Gaston wasn't offered the role.. because, he worked when I did watch his scenes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Darn Posted November 10, 2021 Members Share Posted November 10, 2021 It's pretty cool that Melissa Ordway is almost a decade older than him. That hardly ever happens in Hollywood. I guess it helps that he looks older than his age. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
