In NBC’s action-comedy television show Chuck, an average computer-whiz-next-door receives an encoded e-mail from an old college friend now working in the CIA, and the message embeds the only remaining copy of the world's greatest spy secrets into main character Chuck's brain. The series is in its third season, and for the season finale, there will be flashbacks of Chuck at age 7 (played by Joshua Rush), and his sister Ellie (played by Jadin Gould) at age 11. Josh was SO excited to be cast as Young Chuck, especially since his dad is a fan of the show!

We are sworn to secrecy about anything that happens in the flashbacks, but Josh had a fantastic time on set—he calls it his favorite on-set experience yet. He especially loved meeting the “present day” Chuck, Zachary Levi and comparing “Chucks,” referring to their matching black Chuck Taylor Converse shoes. The show airs as part of a 2-hour season finale on May 24, 2010.
