Coronation Street <\/a>has seen yet another young character recast for the fifth time, with fans likely to recognise the latest actor stepping into the shoes of Harry Platt, Sarah’s son.<\/a><\/p>\n Following Lucy Fallon’s return to the cobbles as Bethany Platt, her little brother Harry is also back on our screens, but previous actor Carter-J Murphy is notably absent.<\/p>\n Harry’s character has been portrayed by seven actors to date – initially as a baby by Woody Illsley and twins Pixie and Presley Sellars. The role was then taken over by Freddie and Isaac Rhodes from 2017 until 2024, when Carter-J took on the part.<\/p>\n However, the baton has now been passed to Joshua Leavy, who made his debut on Monday (October 20).<\/p>\n Interestingly, Joshua shares a connection with his on-screen mum Sarah,<\/a> played by Tina O’Brien – they both attended the same acting school. An insider told The Sun: “He’s already been filming on set for a few months. He went to Tina O’Brien’s acting school so he already knows her.”<\/p>\n Joshua isn’t new to the Corrie scene, having previously played Finn Chambers – the son of Sarah’s friend Lydia – in 2021. He’s also had a stint on rival Channel 4 soap Hollyoaks, reports the Express<\/a>.<\/p>\n This isn’t the first recasting of 2025, as Lily Platt – daughter of David and Shona – was also replaced after nine years in July.<\/p>\n Brooke Malonie had held the role since 2016, but now Lily is portrayed by Grace Ashcroft-Gardner as she tackles more challenging storylines.<\/p>\n Footballer James Bailey underwent a casting change earlier this year. Initially portrayed by Nathan Graham, the role of James has now been passed on to Jason Callender for his return to the cobbles.<\/p>\n Have you joined Threads?
