He began doing sudden exposures in some of ABS-CBN’S sitcoms where his dad was usually part of. It was at the show of Aga Muhlach , Bayani Agbayani and his dad where most of his extra publicity were shown. It was then, when the management of the network came to realize that Luis actually can act humorously. That’s when he started doing comic shows with some of the celebrity hunks like Piolo Pascual and Diether Ocampo , titled Bora.

As a dramatic actor, his talent really outshone when he was offered a leading man role together with Christian Bautista in Kampanerang Kuba,  starred by Anne Curtis .
