Ever since Gilles Marini invaded the set of
Brothers and Sisters, the audiences have been ecstatic in tuning in to the show. It's no wonder the writers (and the network) have given the thumbs up on focusing on his character even more. That is, despite the misfortunes regarding his visa.
Check Out Clips from the Last EpisodeThe 34-year-old actor told
TV Guide about his recent success on
Brothers and Sisters, hinting that there's more of Luc Laurent to come. In addition to that, he'll really find himself a place in the Walker family. All thanks to Rob Lowe leaving.
The source reports that the departure of Robert McAllister will pave the way for the
introduction of the show's new power couple. Initially, he and Kitty (Calista Flockhart) held up the romance on
Brothers and Sisters. We still have Justin and Rebecca, as well as Kevin and Scotty. However, it looks like we're zeroing in on a new couple and things are going to change.
"Hopefully, Luc by then will be in deep with the family, and his big heart will help them," Gilles Marini revealed to the publication. He also said that the writers are planning to fast-forward the timeline to one year just so the story concentrates on his character and Sarah (Rachel Griffiths).
E! Online has already dubbed their pairing as "Lucrah," which practically means things will keep going strong between the two. But before all that happens on the next season of
Brothers and Sisters, we need to get Robert out of the way.
According to Gilles Marini, the senator "is offered a massive new opportunity, and then something happens." Is he pointing to the big Washington move that was mentioned recently on the show? We're thinking that that's the case, therefore setting the spotlight on Luc and Sarah.
It's Season 5 for Brothers and SistersWith ABC giving
Brothers and Sisters a new season, we're expecting more with regards to this power couple. While we're still concerned with the other Walkers, you have to admit that the positive response to this season can be credited to Luc (and okay, Sarah too).
