Making It
The London Free PressDecember 3rd, 2005
Life philosophy: "Never lose touch with your past while you pursue the future, because they always connect."
The thing most people don't know about me . . . "I love competition."
Perfect night out: Going with close friends to a good, quiet bar in downtown New York.
Perfect night in: At home with his family in London playing 20 Questions or some other parlour game.
London memory: "One of the most important theatrical experiences I had was in Grade 11 when I saw a production of Tennessee Williams' The Glass Menagerie at the Grand Theatre. I was so moved and it's still one of my favourite plays."
Biggest career break: "That's hard to say, but it all started for me at Julliard. The coolest thing was going to Argentina to launch Over There and seeing my picture on a giant billboard."
Personal: Single, living in Los Angeles
Education: A graduate of Lester B. Pearson School for the Performing Arts; Central secondary school and the Julliard Drama Division, New York.
Family: Son of Dr. Tom Macfarlane, UWO's director of student health services, and Penny Macfarlane, a mental health nurse at a London hospital
If I weren't in this career, I'd be . . . A carpenter or a student.
Favourite TV show: "Northern Exposure. I always try to catch it in re-runs. Someday, I'd love to buy a cottage in north Ontario where my family could spend time together."
What's next: "I'm going up to Vancouver to shoot a short film in January. Now that my TV contract is up on Over There, I'm looking forward to reading new scripts. And I will also be doing a bit of travel."
Born and raised in London, actor Luke Macfarlane, 25, appeared in several off- Broadway plays before making his feature film debut last year in Kinsey. He was cast as Bruce, the son of sex researcher Alfred Kinsey, played by Liam Neeson. Macfarlane most recently had a major role in Over There, an FX TV series about American soldiers on their first tour of duty in Iraq. The series' recent cancellation won't discourage the actor, who told The Free Press, "Being in Over There is a wonderful thing, but at the same time, I don't want it to be the highlight of my career."
