Luke SAYS

Previous Quote

His name was Ponce? He'd get made fun of at my school. They'd probably call him 'pants.'

Next Quote
  • Phil
    on Luke:

    "My boy was I trouble, so I put my fears aside and I came to his rescue. Now, does that make me a hero? Yes it does."

  • Claire
    on Luke:

    "Luke is my baby. Is it really too much to ask that he stay a sweet, innocent kid forever?"

  • Phil
    on exploring with Luke:

    "We're like Ponce de Leon and his son, little Ponce."

CHARACTER BIO

Much like his two older sisters, Luke Dunphy marches to the beat of his own drum. It's an offbeat beat to say the least. Sometimes Luke gets his head stuck in the banister, other times he jumps around on the trampoline while in his underwear with a box on his head. Told ya he was offbeat. But Luke is epitomizes the innocence of youth. He didn't think it was a big deal to mention that his mom thought her dad's new wife was a "coal digger." Of course, Luke got the phrase wrong. What he meant was that Claire thought Gloria was a "gold digger." Ahhh. Careful what you say around this guy.

ACTOR BIO

Ten year-old Nolan Gould began his career at the tender age of three doing commercials and totally fell in love with acting. He has worked consistently since the day he first stepped on that commercial set. His most recent films include leads in the features Space Buddies and Montana. Current television credits include Eleventh Hour and the movie of the week, Sweet Nothing in My Ear.

Nolan is a well-balanced young actor who believes hard work pays off. He has trained with Patrick Malone and Lisa Picotte for years, focusing on scene study, cold reading and improv. He especially enjoys improv, and keeps his skills honed by performing in a weekly live improv show. All his effort and training have culminated in a well-rounded, confident young actor who loves to tell stories and entertain.

Nolan has an extensive vintage Hot Wheels collection, loves his LEGO bricks and enjoys swimming and sports. He is an active Mensa member and loves to read and learn.
