Not long ago, Conner Floyd, who has played the role of Chance since 2021 on The Young and the Restless, joined the cast of Days of Our Lives, replacing Billy Flynn, who moved to The Young and the Restless recently. The swap sees Flynn taking over the role of Aristotle Dumas and Floyd taking over Flynn’s vacated role of Chad DiMera. But this leaves the role of Chance Chancellor vacant. So, who is going to play that?
Who plays the role of Chance Chancellor in The Young and the Restless?
As of now, Conner Floyd continues to play Chance Chancellor in The Young and the Restless. This is because most soap operas tend to tape in advance. Floyd departed days ago, and there must be some episodes’ worth of footage where he will still appear as Chance Chancellor.
So far, Chance has not been recast in The Young and the Restless. Perhaps, in this time where Chance’s scenes are filmed in advance, the show will search for an alternative. Floyd may be around for some time, too. This also happened in Days of Our Lives, where Floyd’s iteration of Chad will not appear before April 2026. Till then, Billy Flynn will continue in the role despite having already started on The Young and the Restless.
So, right now, there is no new Chance Chancellor, and Conner Floyd will continue in the role in the coming episodes. But a recast could be good for Chance’s character. Over the past years, the iconic character has been sidelined. Perhaps a casting change could infuse Chance with better storylines, and perhaps a return to the limelight.
A lot will depend on the recasting. Since there is no actor confirmed to play Chance, the show could also play around with the mystery for a while. But it seems that Chance will be an important character going forward, and it is unlikely that The Young and the Restless will not recast him.
