Well, Luke anyway....!



A new Christmas film sees actor and former Bros heartthrob Luke Goss play a man who has to hit rock bottom before he can bounce back. It's a situation Goss says a lot of people can relate to, himself included.

From marriage break-up to literally losing the shirt off his back, the character Goss plays in The Loss Adjuster is put through pretty much every misery that can be thrown his way.

"He's truthfully at the limit of his life in the sense of what he can take," says Goss of Martin, a hollow-eyed insurance assessor.

He points out The Loss Adjuster does become an uplifting story and is a comedy.

"A dark comedy in some ways," he adds. "But I know how that feels, as most men do, where they've gone to that point where there's that moment of crisis within their own prowess, financially or in their work or whatever, and it's a moment of reinvention."

Goss has reinvented himself as an actor in Los Angeles since the days when he and twin brother Matt ruled the pop world as boy band Bros in the late 1980s and early 90s.
Luke now has 60 film credits to his name, including Blade II, Hellboy II: The Golden Army and now The Loss Adjuster.

"It's a movie about, by standing a little taller, having some self-belief and being very candid in regards of wanting to be an authentic self, you can find a victory or two, and I think that might be needed right now," he says.

Flirting with Joan Collins​


The film also stars Kym Marsh, Martin Kemp, Lorna Fitzgerald and Dame Joan Collins. Indeed, just about the only good thing to happen to poor Martin on his way to rock bottom is being hit on by Dame Joan's glamorous widow.

"Listen, any man who doesn't want to get hit on by Joan Collins is a fool," Goss laughs. "She's beautiful and she's so professional."
