Genres I work in

I am drawn to bold, character-driven stories that challenge both actor and audience. I thrive in roles that provoke emotion, tension, and connection—leaving a lasting impact beyond the screen.

Preferred genres include:

  • Drama – emotionally layered, grounded characters
  • Horror – psychological tension, internal conflict, unsettling presence
  • Comedy – sharp timing, dry wit, offbeat character energy
  • Short Films – emotionally intimate, experimental, or high-concept storytelling
  • Vertical Series – mobile-first, portrait-style storytelling that reflects modern viewing habits and growing industry trends

I seek projects that challenge, entertain, and leave the audience gasping or smiling long after the credits roll.

About Thom

I am a versatile European actor who possesses a strong presence and a passion for storytelling. After working on high-profile commercials, I now focus on feature films and TV series. Trained in scene study (LA), character work, and performance technique, I combine raw talent with intensive self-development. I’m here to shape realities through acting—a storyteller-shapeshifter driven by creativity and character development.

Highlights & Notable Selections

  • Selected for featured extra role as an alien in Guardians of the Galaxy (Marvel Studios)
  • Cast as featured extra in Thunderbolts (Marvel Studios)
  • Selected for featured role in The Sinners (Independent Feature)

Due to international COVID-related production shifts (Guardians of the Galaxy) and overlapping filming schedules (Thunderbolts and The Sinners), I was unable to appear on screen. However, each casting reflected industry interest in my unique presence and ability to embody stylized and character-heavy roles.
