In this episode, Alyshia sits down with Luke to dive into his multifaceted career as an actor, writer, producer, and director. They explore the origins of Luke's viral short film, The Crossing Over Express, inspired by a poignant story involving a lost VHS tape and his personal experience of losing his mother. Luke shares how the film's concept—centered on a woman who claims to raise the dead in the back of a truck—took shape and resonated with audiences.
The conversation also highlights Luke's recent acting projects, including his lead role in the indie thriller Teacher’s Pet, his work on AppleTV+'s For All Mankind, and his varied film credits, like his starring role in Faith Based. They discuss the evolution of the acting industry, the rise of self-tapes, and the increasing necessity for actors to become multi-hyphenates to thrive. Luke shares how he didn't book his first Network TV credit until age 39. Together, Alyshia and Luke offer candid insights into the perseverance required to succeed in entertainment and the enduring importance of authenticity in storytelling.
