Hallmark’s Fall Harvest 2020 is coming up with a bucket full of autumnal movies to enjoy. One of them is the romantic flick ‘Falling For Look Lodge’ formerly named as ‘Love at Look Lodge’. The film is an exploration of love in unpredictable circumstances. It revolves around ambitions and personal relationships. As per the brief synopsis provided by Hallmark, Lily (Clark Backo) dreams of being a hotel event coordinator and is excited when she's given the chance to do so by helping Noah (Jonathan Keltz), a hotel guest who wants to finish planning his sister Justine's wedding at a remote lodge.
The film’s trailer gives us a peep into its old-world charm and enamors us. But before we head on to watch this sweet tale of love, here is what we need to know about its actors-- Clark Backo of show ‘Supernatural’ fame and Jonathan Keltz of series ‘Entourage’ fame.
Clark Backo
Actor, writer and activist, Clark Backo was born in Montreal, Quebec and raised in Toronto, Ontario. Although she grew up totally being engrossed in her academic life but her father’s consistent storytelling throughout her childhood eventually inspired her foray into acting and entertainment. As a result, Backo ventured into acting at the age of 18 and discovered her persona as a storyteller, one like her father.
Materializing her passion, Backo debuted with a minor role in the series entitled ‘Beauty and the Beast’. She later had the pleasure of working on many critically acclaimed TV series such as The CW’s ‘Supernatural,’ Fox’s ‘The Hot Zone,’ Hulu’s ‘Letterkenny’ and the multiple Emmy award-winning series, ‘The Handmaid’s Tale.’
She has also worked on feature films such as Blumhouse/Netflix’s ‘Seven in Heaven’ and Jay Baruchel’s ‘Random Acts of Violence.’ More recently in 2019, she got cast in the feature film ‘Happy Place’ — directed by Helen Shaver, as per Hallmark Channel. Besides this, the actress has recently wrapped on Delmar Washington’s directorial debut ‘No Running’ alongside Taryn Manning and Shane West.
While acting takes most of her time, the young actress is also active in her support for the BIPOC community.
Jonathan Keltz
Keltz was born in New York City as the son of Karin Lippert, who worked in public relations and Martin Keltz, who is a co-founder of Scholastic Productions. The actor was motivated to begin a career in acting by his first drama teacher, Victoria Silvestri. He got his chance in films in Toronto appearing opposite Heather Graham in ‘Cake’ and playing Chris Cooper's son in ‘Breach’ for Universal.
Jonathan also co-starred in Disney's ‘Prom’. He reprised his role in the final season of comedy-drama television series ‘Entourage’ as Ari Gold's loyal assistant, Jake Steinberg. What added more to his fame was landing lead roles in two independent features: ‘Playback’, with Christian Slater, and ‘Transgression’, opposite Michael Ironside. He also grabbed lead roles in MOW's ‘Dadnapped’ for The Disney Channel and ‘Acceptance’ for Lifetime.
