This thread is a little old so maybe you've figured it out already.
You're thinking along the right lines but perhaps a little cheaper and easier than a raspberry pi is an open VPN router like this one:
https://www.amazon.com/GL-iNET-GL-MT300N-V2-Repeater-300Mbps-Performance/dp/B073TSK26W
You can attach this to your current router; it broadcasts it's own SSID so you can connect your Chromecast to this, along with the casting device. Then any other device you don't want VPN'd just stays connected to your original SSID.
It's a bit of a pain to switch Chromecast WiFi networks so just disable/ enable open VPN in the router. You can also change the VPN region as required.
Setup can be a bit finicky - here's a guide from one VPN provider. Good luck!
