UTA, a leading global talent agency, has officially signed actor Luther Ford, who recently gained recognition for his portrayal of Prince Harry in the final season of Netflix’s Emmy-winning drama ‘The Crown’. This move marks a significant leap in Ford’s acting career, offering him representation in all areas.
? Breakout Role as Prince Harry: Ford’s standout performance in ‘The Crown’ showcased his talent and versatility as an actor. His depiction of Prince Harry in the show’s final six episodes, which focus on the years 1997 to 2005, was widely acclaimed. Ford starred opposite Ed McVey, who played Prince William, and the series delved into the profound impact of Princess Diana’s tragic death on her sons.
? Journey in ‘The Crown’: The Crown’s last season, released in two volumes starting in November, explores the complexities of the royal family during Tony Blair’s tenure as Prime Minister. It highlights the contrasting paths of Princes Harry and William, with Ford’s character often depicted as the family’s black sheep, including a controversial moment where he’s photographed in a Nazi uniform at a costume party.
? From Film Student to Rising Star: Ford’s journey to ‘The Crown’ is remarkable, having been cast from an open call while being a film student. His only prior acting experience was in the 2020 short film ‘Dream Between’, which he co-wrote, co-directed, and starred in with Eleni Ordans.
? Continued Representation: Alongside UTA, Luther Ford will continue to be represented by Joshua Woodford at Hamilton Hodell, ensuring a robust support system for his burgeoning career.
