Fan Casting Jaden Elphinstone in Eda - Initial Stage

Jaden Wardington Elphinstone, more commonly known as Jaden or Jay is a young CIA agent and rookie whose first assignment was to help the U.S. Ambassador to Peru with Eda's guidance. As a child, Jaden was a member of the Boy Scouts of America and wanted to reach the rank of Eagle Scout, but he did not. After high school, he attended and graduated from Harvard University, applying to the Central Intelligence Agency afterward. Although he succeeded in becoming an agent, Jaden had received a poor grade on his marksmanship skills Jaden is a timid field agent and is very reluctant to use firearms. He prefers to avoid conflict both out of practicality and fear, but moreso the latter. He adheres to a strict, law-abiding interpretation of CIA standards in that he, for example, genuinely believes that the agency must be ethical and not engage in "dirty work" such as assassinations because of a U.S. executive order forbidding assassination.
