Chase Stokes Had ‘Rigorous’ Military Training With Former Seal Team 3 Member for ‘Valiant One’: ‘From Weapons to How to Break Into Buildings’

As a seasoned cinephile with a keen eye for talent and a heart for meaningful storytelling, I find myself captivated by the latest developments in Poguelandia. The return of the Outer Banks cast and crew is always a joyous occasion, and this time around, it seems like they’re not just bringing us more action-packed adventures – they’re also growing as artists and individuals.

On Saturday, some well-known individuals revisited Poguelandia, as the team behind “Outer Banks” gathered to celebrate the release of Season 4 Part 2 at a fan gathering in Santa Monica. During this exciting occasion, several celebrities even hinted at upcoming ventures.

Actor Chase Stokes is set to portray a U.S. Army tech specialist in the action-thriller “Valiant One.” In an interview with EbMaster, Stokes stated, “My character isn’t your typical soldier. He works at a desk on a base, but finds himself thrust into an extraordinary situation. It’s like his own unique heroic journey.

In their conversation, he pointed out similarities between his “Valiant One” persona and Glen Powell’s depiction of Gary Johnson in “Hit Man”. Both actors portray characters who seem ordinary but find themselves in combat situations. Additionally, Stokes expressed his desire to explore a creative role behind the camera.

Stokes commented, ‘[Glen Powell] was a writer on ‘Hit Man’ and now he’s bringing that story to life. This is something he’s currently working on.’ He added, ‘What Glen has achieved in carving out a role for the leading man once more is truly inspiring…Glen is someone I admire greatly in my own career journey.’

Stokes also mentioned that a previous member of Naval Special Warfare Group 3 was employed to subject the cast to rigorous military training, encompassing weaponry as well as movement techniques and building entry methods. The actor commented: “During our film testing, those in the military appreciated how authentic our portrayal was.

Rudy Pankow expressed his search for a venture focusing on combating gun violence, stating, “This is an issue that urgently requires our attention and discussion. It’s crucial for us as a nation to unite and work collectively on it.

The actor from “Uncharted” feels that movies have the power to spark meaningful conversations about important topics.

Pankow mentioned that there’s a topic he’d like to discuss. He believes a thought-provoking film could serve as a catalyst for conversation. The movie should carry a deeper message, essentially conveying ‘this is not right’. Art has the power to inspire such reflection.

At the gathering, I had the pleasure of showcasing some of my latest endeavors, such as the Amazon Studios action drama “One Fast Move,” featuring KJ Apa, and the romantic comedy “Beautiful Wedding” on Hulu, which is spearheaded by Dylan Sprouse.

Growing up, I used to watch Dylan and his brother Cole on Disney. Remarkably, my sister spotted Dylan in person at the Mall of Georgia, which led to a showcase. This encounter sparked my interest in acting. As a result, she signed me up. That’s how I found myself diving into the world of acting,” North shared with EbMaster. “Thus, it all started because of Dylan’s appearance. After landing my first role (‘Beautiful Wedding’), I recounted this story to him, and he was truly impressed, saying ‘wow, that’s amazing!’ He has always been a role model for me in acting.

Beyond portraying Cleo Anderson, Carlacia Grant has also showcased several of her own cooking recipes on the program, and furthermore, she created a culinary series specifically for the Poguelandia event held in Santa Monica.

Grant mentioned the menu he put together, and it includes a dish called Clima Chicken Cheese Sandwich. Each cast member has their own item on the menu,” Grant explained.

She mentioned her excitement about trying out gumbo, grilled oysters, and spicy crab cakes for the upcoming Season 5 of “Outer Banks.

In the show, Madison Bailey – the actress portraying Kiara Carrera – shared her eagerness for the launch of her forthcoming musical project.

She shared with EbMaster, “I’m working on creating more tunes,” further mentioning that it could be a wonderful opportunity if her music were to be included in ‘Outer Banks’. She hinted at the possibility, saying something like, “It could almost be a dream come true. Perhaps for the next season.

On Season 4 Part 2, Bailey also shared “My character is going to have a life-changing moment.”

After a couple of days from the fan event, Netflix declared that “Outer Banks” will be ending with season 5.
