Fans also know Luke for his unforgettable performances in The Republic of Sarah (The CW), Legacies (The CW), and his stand-out role as a villainous mastermind in Blindspot (NBC), where he left audiences on the edge of their seats.

This multi-faceted actor isn’t just a fixture in TV dramas; Luke graced the big screen in Paramount’s explosive action thriller Without Remorse, starring opposite the incredible Michael B. Jordan, showcasing his dynamic range and electrifying on-screen presence. He’s also led the way in CBS’s The Code, where he shared the spotlight with the legendary Dana Delaney.

But Luke’s star power doesn’t stop there. With a career that spans blockbuster TV hits and riveting independent films, he has wowed audiences in Mothers and Daughters, Blackwater: Abyss, and Seven Minutes, sharing the screen with top-tier talent like Leven Rambin and Jason Ritter.

The Australian heartthrob’s journey to stardom began across the globe, where he first gained attention as the charming and enigmatic Romeo Smith on the iconic Australian series Home and Away. His performance earned him the prestigious Most Popular New Male Talent Logie Award in 2010, setting the stage for his rise to international fame.

From his breakthrough role in the beloved series H2O to his standout performance in Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Luke’s career trajectory has been nothing short of meteoric. Whether playing the hero, the anti-hero, or the villain, Luke Mitchell brings a level of intensity and complexity to each role that has made him one of the most sought-after talents in the industry.

As his career continues to evolve, audiences around the world are eagerly anticipating what Luke Mitchell does next. With his undeniable charm, magnetic on-screen presence, and unmatched range, Luke’s star is only just beginning to rise.

“WHO YOU ARE as a HUMAN-BEING is what will speak “WHO YOU ARE as a HUMAN-BEING is what will speak for you as an ACTOR on CAMERA or on a STAGE. When an Actor hears the command, ‘ACTION!’ No one can fill that next MOMENT. Nobody else can jump in front of the camera, or onto the stage to do it for you. YOU are IT! Therefore as an Actor you need to be 100% PRESENT in the moment, CENTERED in YOURSELF, in CHARGE of your CRAFT, and the STORY you have been CHOSEN to HELP tell. 

This MASTERCLASS will offer you an EXPERIENCE to leave with along with TOOLS for your future use. Our weekend will be INTENSE and IMPACTFUL, but also INTIMATE, and should be considered PRIVATE. NO PHONES will be allowed in Class. Even if you are not standing on the stage, you will still be working sitting in your seat. You will PREPARE a 3-4 minute MONOLOGUE that you believe SHOWCASES who you are and what you have to OFFER as an Actor.  I look forward to working with you” -
