Season five Cast List

Season five lists the principal cast as business-critical talent: Chase Stokes stars as John B., stars as Sarah Cameron, stars as Kiara, stars as Pope and stars as Cleo. The supporting roster includes Drew Starkey as Rafe, Austin North as Topper, Fiona Palomo as Sofia, J. Anthony Crane as Chandler Groff and Cullen Moss as Shoupe, while Jonas Pate, Josh Pate and Shannon Burke serve as the show's creators and executive producers.

Chase Stokes Moment

Chase Stokes appears in the teaser as John B. and delivers the single line that structures the footage: “Let’s go get this son of a bitch.” That line anchors the teaser’s three visual threads — a Pogues’ mourning, an absent trophy (the Blue Crown), and encircling threats — presented across the short clip and the first-look images as a compact narrative dossier rather than an extended trailer.

The Pogues' Breaking Point

The Pogues are at their absolute breaking point following the tragic loss of JJ in Morocco. The Pogues have lost the Blue Crown, Chandler Groff is still at large, Dalia and the Corsairs are closing in, and the Kooks ensure the Pogues have no home to return to; John B., Sarah, Kiara, Pope and Cleo must rely on scrappy instincts and an uneasy alliance with Rafe as they seek to avenge their best friend and bring it on home one final time.

One final time, Stokes's “Let’s go get this son of a bitch” converts the teaser into a commitment: Outer Banks' final season, debuting Aug. 20 on Netflix, is being positioned as a vengeance-driven conclusion that must resolve JJ's death in Morocco, the Blue Crown's disappearance and the Pogues’ conflicts with Chandler Groff, Dalia and the Corsairs, and the Kooks.
