Luke has opened his Instagram page! (But you might need to log in in order to see the posts.) It had been private for the longest time. But it's not very revealing. He's posted twice in the past week, after a 3-year absence. No mentions of a partner or husband.

So what happened with the big superhero role? Did he get it? His last project was a hallmark Valentine's movie months ago.

His IG is incredibly boring for being private for so long. He doesn't even follow some interesting people or rumoured ex-boyfriends like Wenty Miller or TR Knight. He is so secretive, I really thought he was maybe already married and had a family he was secretly hiding somewhere.

Hilarie Burton did a few Hallmark movies. During one production she gave notes to the network to feature more gay characters, and interracial couples. Hallmark never hired her again. Burton has said she would do the same thing over again. I give her credit for doing that.

An openly gay actor playing straight in Hallmark Channel movies does more for gay people than stunt casting or "reimagining" established characters as gay.

It certainly does more than DEMANDING that only gay actors play gay characters.

"An openly gay actor playing straight in Hallmark Channel movies does more for gay people than stunt casting or "reimagining" established characters as gay."

I doubt the usual Hallmark crowd (middle aged women) knows anything about him and that he's even openly gay. So far he was the bf on a popular show that aired over 10 years ago. Besides that he had a couple of guest roles, played a bounty hunter (or whatever that was) on a D-List Syfy show and starred in a bunch of Christmas movies. His career hasn't exactly been mind-blowing. He is more a phenomenon in the gay community. As long as he keeps a low profile, Hallmark cares more about the tax credit than supporting the gay community with this casting.

I read that all these productions in Canada have to hire the D-list Canadian actors to get tax breaks. Looks like the Canadian actor pool they can choose from is not very big so we see the same faces all the time.

From his IMDB page it looks like he hasn't worked in months and his last projects have only been Hallmark movies and that bad SyFy show that ended in 2018. Someone posted pics of his condo in L.A. (don't remember if he bought or sold it) and he lives/lived in a $700k 2br apartment in West Hollywood. I often wonder how he pays his mortgage and Hollywood Lifestyle including his personal trainer sessions with only one or two guest appearances a year and Hallmark movies.

by Anonymousreply 78May 25, 2020 4:06 AM

[quote]Do they sit around giggling about the frau shit they're creating?

I'd say no. I'm an actor and think the vast majority of actors take their work seriously. Even if they acknowledge an iffy or mundane script they do try to raise the quality with a heartfelt performance, and hopefully tell a nice story.

I'm a gay actor and I was in a Hallmark movie a couple years ago as the lead's father. I'm a middle-aged guy, nobody cares, I'm sure. Our script was pretty lame, but our lovely director did a big rewrite (a polish technically), and tried to give us something on the page to play. I think it turned out nicely and I can't wait to do another.

Hallmark movies shoot very quickly. I assume most were like the one I did and shot 115 pages in 15 shooting days. That is television fast, so an actor like MacFarlane doesn't tie up too much time cranking out a holiday feature. It's not a terrible job, and actors want to work!
