He is currently at work filming Art in Las Vegas. Bluteau is fluent in both French and English, and though he performs in both languages, for his most recent roles he has favored English. His characters have ranged greatly, from a male prostitute (Being at Home with Claude) to a person with a developmental disability (Les Fous De Bassan) to a crooked jockey (Dead Heat) to a Jesuit missionary (Black Robe).
