He played the role of Judas with bloody bandages across his broken nose and black eyes. The audience thought the bandages were part of the play. Following a series of operations to reset his nose, he began gathering larger roles in films like American Psycho, The Weight of Water, Session 9, The Dancer, When Strangers Appear, and You Can Count on Me.
Lucas starred in the 2009 Ridley Scott-produced Tell-Tale, a film based on the short story "The Tell-Tale Heart" by Edgar Allan Poe. Lucas gained mainstream exposure after his roles in Sweet Home Alabama, A Beautiful Mind, and as Glenn Talbot in Hulk. He later had leading roles in movies such as Glory Road, Poseidon, and Stealth.

At one point in my career, I did the voice of Hugo Boss and what I would say was ‘Hugo, yeah, the world’s getting smaller, smell better.” Because of that, I made $60,000 in one year. I didn’t make a single dime as an actor except doing that voiceover and because of that voiceover, I was, able to train, be in small plays. Home Depot has not only paid the bills, but it’s also allowed me to be a little bit more creatively selective. And I have nothing but crazy respect for that job, partly because I’ve also been a part of this company and I have seen how it has developed and changed over the years. They have been very kind to me and they’re wildly professional.
And I remember genuinely thinking, this guy’s crazy. Like, I just remember having that moment where the idea that a television show goes more than one or two years is fairly unique or rare, much less five seasons. And the idea that he had all of the seasons in his head? He just knew that the flashbacks would be quite substantial. Maybe, if Josh Lucas has anything to say about it. The Sweet Home Alabama star addressed the film possibly getting a sequel with SiriusXM's Pop Culture Spotlight with Jessica Shaw.

Melanie had left the South and her small-town lifestyle behind years earlier, choosing to move to New York to reinvent her life. And she managed to achieve a successful career as a fashion designer and status as a socialite. She finds herself engaged to the city's most eligible bachelor, Andrew Hennings , but needs the divorce she's been seeking for seven years to marry him. "I would love to. I've campaigned her. I'm not gonna say that she's the problem, but I think part of it is that Reese is so busy," he told Entertainment Tonight. Years earlier, Melanie had left her small-town life for the big city of New York, where she achieved success in a new career as a fashion designer and fell in love with a man named Andrew, played by Patrick Dempsey. In the same interview, Lucas discussed his current role on the hit show "Yellowstone," which he stars in alongside Kevin Costner.
"The whole life is super complicated," Lucas said. "Patrick Dempsey's character is still in the picture. But that's just a proposal." Lucas understands that the A-lister is busy, and he predicted her success back at the start of the 2000s. Jake finally signs the divorce papers, but in the middle of her wedding ceremony to Andrew, Melanie learns she had yet to ink the documents. 'We're not making a sequel that I know of, but if Disney wants to make a sequel they can just call me,' she said during a Q&A on Facebook back in 2016. Overall, the actor was down to revisit the role of Jake Perry.

Lucas first revealed he had spoken “extensively” with the original film’s writer and director, Andy Tennant, about a potential storyline for a sequel back in April of this year. The actor, who costarred with Witherspoon in the hit 2002 romantic comedy, is ready to take on a sequel and find out what childhood soulmates Melanie and Jake are up to. "Look, I would love to do the sequel," he revealed, and then jokingly added, "The issue is Reese's got a book club." While Reese may be busy with her book club, film career, and clothing brand Draper James, she's also down to come back for a sequel. “I’ve even reached out to Reese, and I know Reese has said as well — it’s an iconic film.
I thought Taylor was doing something from a writing standpoint that was remarkable. I did have a sense that Taylor was a unique talent. He was an actor who left a TV show because he very clearly felt his worth was greater than the way that they were valuing it.
Lucas supported President Barack Obama during the 2008 presidential campaign, volunteering to help potential voters register at colleges in Pennsylvania. Lucas knocked on doors and phone banked, wearing an Obama shirt for 45 days. He was also in Denver, Colorado, for the 2008 Democratic National Convention with a group of actors called the Creative Coalition. In 2018, Lucas was cast in a recurring role in Yellowstone, as a younger version of John Dutton, portrayed by Kevin Costner. Lucas was born Joshua Lucas Easy Dent Maurer on June 20, 1971, in Little Rock, Arkansas, the son of Michele (née LeFevre), a nurse midwife, and Don Maurer, an ER doctor.
He also appeared in an off-Broadway production of Terrence McNally's controversial Corpus Christi, a retelling of the Passion, with the Jesus character and his disciples all being gay. Lucas played the role of Judas as a gay predator. Right before the play was to open, Lucas was mugged and beaten on his way to the theater for dress rehearsal.
I don’t mean to connect the dots but one of the things I really love and respect about Yellowstone is that you see the work that goes into it, these people who get up at four o’clock in the morning and work hard. Weirdly enough, the truth of that experience is what I’ve experienced with Home Depot. Taylor told me back before we started shooting the first little pieces that it’s not gonna be much for me in the first couple years. The fifth season is where you’re gonna come in. I don’t know if we’re gonna do full flashback season or full flashback episodes, but that’s what I can tell you.

Despite Witherspoon’s career potentially holding up the prospective sequel, Lucas says that he is immensely proud of Witherspoon’s rise to stardom. The reality is, I look at a movie like Dances With Wolves and what Kevin Costner did in that movie. I mean, sure – they have doubles but he did a lot of the stuff with those buffalos.
So when they came to New York, they hung out and visited me. The world of being a young actor at that point was a little different. It was a bit more wild and free and risky and frankly, dangerous and drunken. I always remember Cole being a striking force. It’s interesting now that he is Rip because he has that same power and energy and danger inside of him, but there’s also a soulfulness.
"They work out in the middle of nowhere Montana, they're very isolated and they work incredibly hard. Everyone involved in the show is attempting to do something special and they're pouring their souls and hearts into it." Lucas' film career began by accident in 1979 when a small Canadian film production shot on the tiny coastal South Carolina island, Sullivan's Island, where Lucas and his family lived. Unbeknownst to the filmmakers, 8-year-old Lucas was hiding in the sand dunes watching filming during the climatic scene where teenage lovers engage in a lovesick fight. It was during this experience that Lucas decided to pursue a career in film which he has now done for nearly 3 decades. Born to young, radical politically active parents in Arkansas in 1971, Lucas spent his early childhood nomadically moving around the southern U.S. The family finally settled in Gig Harbor, Washington, where Lucas attended high school.
