Earlier this year, Luke announced his return to Home and Away, almost a decade after leaving the show in June 2011.
He told The Sunday Telegraph that that Channel Seven producers contacted him in January asking him to reprise his role.
‘[Channel Seven executives] called me in and said, “how do you feel about Angelo coming back to the bay?” said the actor.
‘I said ”very good” – and almost straight away it was, ”okay, let’s get a haircut, a wardrobe fitting and look at some scripts,” he enthused.

While it’s not know how long he will star on the show this time round, Luke revealed that Angelo will stick around the Bay for ‘a good few months.’
‘[Channel Seven producers] haven’t said to me I’m coming in to die,’ he said.
Luke starred on Home And Away for three years before leaving the show.
A spokesperson from Channel Seven told What’s On TV: ‘It’s been almost a decade since his character Angelo Rosetta left the Bay, and now he’s back on the police force with everything to prove.’
