Torn between two States

LUKE Ford, favoured for tonight's AFI Award for Best Supporting Actor, will follow his front-running film to the US. Not for long if our filmmakers have their way reports The Daily Telegraph December 06, 2008.

The Black Balloon, in which the actor plays Toni Collette's autistic son, opens in the US this weekend.

Ford, who recently starred opposite Brendan Fraser in The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor, will head to Hollywood in the new year to touch base with the agent he shares with Russell Crowe (George Freeman, of the William Morris Agency.)

"I'm getting the reputation of being a little elusive," he said at the Actor's Pulse studio in Redfern, where he studied and still teaches when the opportunity arises.

He just finished filming ABC telemovie Blood in the Sand, in which he plays Snowy Roles, Australia's first serial killer and is considering another crime role.
