Chase Stokes Outer Banks interview

    von Tufail: Jimmy Fallon

    Chase Stokes sat down with Jimmy Fallon to talk about the final season of Outer Banks and how heavy the emotions got on set. He shared a story about Drew, who plays Rafe, claiming he was non-emotional and even felt like a psychopath for not crying at all. Chase pushed back on that idea immediately, saying no, Drew was actually a mess who did not stop crying the whole time. The reason was simple: Drew expressed that he felt bummed out because he loved everybody in this crew and kind of grew up with these people. Chase also explained the weird dynamic that existed for the longest time where Rafe was always on his own while the Pogues were out on their journey. That changed after the end of season four when an unfortunate death happens and then Rafe is stuck with the Pogues. As John B, the narrator, Chase noted it was extra emotional for him as he filmed the final season. He remembered how they started this thing and would all go do voiceover work together in the studio so he'd be there with the whole cast. They even lived together at one point.

    He said he got a little choked up. Because this is the final season. Yeah, it's so funny. He claims to be a non-emotional person. And he's like, I felt like I was a psychopath. I wasn't crying at all. No, he was a mess. A dude could not stop crying. I looked at him, and he's like... Oh, stop it. Oh, my gosh. Drew, come here. And then it was... But he said that he got to kind of gel with you guys on this final season where he hasn't had before. And he was like, this is bumming me out, because I loved everybody in this crew, and I kind of grew up with these people. Yeah, it was kind of a weird dynamic for the longest time because Rafe is always on his own. And the Pogues are out on their journey. So, you know, the end of season four, we have, you know, the unfortunate death that happens. And then Rafe is stuck with the Pogues. As John B., you're the narrator. Was it extra emotional for you to kind of, this is the final, this is the end? Yeah, yeah, it was weird. You know, we started this thing and we would all go and do the voiceover work together. So I'd be in the studio, the whole cast would be there. You actually lived together at one point. We did. Yeah. We did during the pandemic. Yes, you lived together during the pandemic. And then I remember this character was invented. Oh, God. Tammy. And Tammy, I'm a big fan. Tammy. Now, how did... Sweet Tammy. Sweet Tammy. How did Tammy get invented? And it will never go away. Do you realize that? Yeah. No, it haunts me, obviously. Is Tammy getting her own spin-off? I think she might get a new spinoff, yeah. We're talking to Netflix actually backstage about it. Oh, that's perfect.
