Nolan Gould is best known for playing Luke Dunphy on the ABC comedy series, Modern Family. The show followed the lives of three diverse family set-ups in suburban Los Angeles.
Before Modern Family, Gould was just a childhood actor starting out in the field. Now, he has made a name for himself in Hollywood.
Gould is a member of MENSA and accelerated four grades in school. He began his acting career at the age of three in commercials. In 2017, he was featured in the music video for Logic's song, "1-800-273-8255," the number for the National Suicide Prevention Hotline.
Now that Modern Family is over, Gould is moving on with his life and his career. He is still focusing on acting, but also on his personal life as well. He has a very promising career ahead of himself.
Here's everything Nolan Gould has been up to since Modern Family ended.
9 Got Signed To An Agency
A3 Artists Agency is based in LA, New York and the U.K. and helps people in the industry. They work with their clients to maximize their brands, exposures and income from all possible sources. Nolan Gould was signed to them back in June 2020 for literary representation. Gould continues to be repped by MCTalent Management, attorney Steve Younger and Artist & Representatives for talent representation. This will help him get more roles.
8 Built A Tropical Bar In His Backyard
During quarantine, we all got into hobbies that we never would have gotten into before. Gould built a tropical bar in his backyard and said he cannot wait to have friends over again so they can all use it. He also dressed up like a pirate bartender for Halloween and poured himself a drink, complete with a spooky mug. He has shared pictures with some of his celeb friends in the past, and we can't wait to see them around the bar, having a great time soon enough.

Gould appeared in Unclear Magazine and DA MAN Magazine, where he talked about Modern Family, his life as a child actor, what's next for him and more. The two cover stories really showed a lot into his life and how much he has grown up right before our eyes. Here's hoping there are a lot more magazine shoots for him in the future.

Gould usually lives in L.A., but he explored New York City with his friends and even went on a hunt for the best pizza in the city.

While in NYC, Gould hit 1.5 million followers on Instagram and made sure to thank all of his fans/followers.
