Coronation Street star Luca Toolan’s new career after exit

Known for his role as school bully Mason Radcliffe, Luca’s character was killed off in a January storyline last year.

Now, the actor is making strides in his post-Corrie career with the launch of his own production company.

Speaking in a recent TikTok interview with Phil Roberts on Cheshire’s Mix 56, the 22-year-old said: “Life after Corrie, I’m not actually dead.

“Life continues, I’m making my own stuff now, I’ve got my own production company so that’s my passion is making projects.”

He continued: “It’s a dream come true, that’s the stuff that really excites me, having that creative licence and writing, directing, making, hearing stuff.

“Honestly, that’s the most fun stuff.”

Fans were quick to offer messages of encouragement in the comments section.

One wrote: “Good luck to you, I would love to see you in Corrie again.”

Another said: “Your doing really well, I hope you’re doing great @Lucaku.”

Mason was depicted as a relentless bully who nearly drove classmate Liam Connor to suicide in a devastating storyline.

In his final appearance on the soap, Mason was confronted by his brothers after they learned he had reported them for murder.

He was chased down and fatally stabbed with his own knife after a struggle involving Dylan.

Bleeding and disoriented, Mason collapsed in a playground and was discovered by Abi Webster, who desperately tried to keep him alive.

He died later in hospital.

Reflecting on his exit, Luca expressed both sadness and gratitude.

He said: “Of course when I first heard there was a mixture of emotions because I was sad that Mason was going to die and that means I would be leaving, but equally I was really excited and honoured to be part of this storyline because it’s an incredibly important issue that needs to be tackled.

“I feel so privileged to have had this opportunity to start my professional career at Coronation Street and what a great time I’ve had.”

Although his time on the cobbles has ended, Mr Toolan’s new path signals the beginning of an ambitious next chapter as he takes control of his own creative storytelling.
