TRENT FORD: From modeling to acting! Print E-mail

It has been said that for every 1000 aspiring male models, only one or two will make it big. In the case of Trent Ford, not only did he turn heads in the modeling industry but he also successfully made the transition into acting.

"I did that as a financial thing but I never told anybody in acting that I did that. I think that LA doesn’t really understand what fashion is, just in terms of the fashion industry. They have lovely clothes here and people do dress well from time to time. I mean come on, wearing dental floss just doesn’t count," says Ford (shown below for the movie, September Dawn) on his modeling gigs.

After co-starring with Mandy Moore in How to Deal, Ford was seen in the indie film Park, a briliant comedy also starring William Baldwin and Ricki Lake. He will be seen next in Primal Scream. The young actor is also busy with a number of movies plus TV appearances for The Class. He was also in the cast of Smallville and The West Wing.

"I have an English accent on account of the fact that I’ve got an English mother who was born in Birmingham. She’s recently deceased - four or five years ago. My father’s an American who is from Twinsburg, Ohio, where most of my existing family is from.

I moved around most of my life. What happened was that my dad originally was a test pilot with the US Navy and McDonnell Douglas. [Later he ] got into computers. We’d move houses a lot because we’d be buying them, doing them up and selling them. Basically that’s why I’ve moved around so much. I’d say that the accent I have right now is largely attributable to Cambridge University, which kind of put me over the top. " says the actor in a recent interview. [ read more ]

JOIN THE LAMB!

Large Association of Movie Blogs

tMF is part of this exciting group of movie blogs! Visit the LAMB and join!

The Large Association of Movie Blogs has arrived on the scene, and is intended for all audiences.

For movie blog readers: rather than hunting through Google or through any number of blog directories and/or blogrolls looking for a site that fits your liking, this is your one-stop shop. Read up on the latest sites: who's behind them, what their focus is, their goals and what you can expect when visiting.

For movie bloggers: this is a place for your blog to be spotlighted, in its own feature post, for all to see. Additionally, the LAMB is a community of film bloggers, some like you and proably some totally unlike you. We regularly have events and blog-a-thons, from our LAMB Devours the Oscars series to Plot Farms to our annual awards, The LAMMYS.

FOCUS ON EMERGING TALENTS

tMF (The Movie Fanatic) is focused in providing the latest news about cinema's emerging talents. We feature interviews and profiles of mainly up-and-coming young actors in our Spotlight, Emerging Talents and On the Verge sections.
