This is a follow-up blog to my previous one. As I mentioned before, Thomas chooses goes for roles he's never tackled before. His most recent film, The Baytown Disco, has him starring alongside such big names like Billy Bob Thornton and Eva Longoria, but as he plays a boy with cerebral palsy, he has no lines. His previous completed film, Death of a Superhero, has him doing the role of a cancer patient whose last wish is to lose his virginity. And among these more adult roles, there's still his kid-friendly voice role a Ferb on the Disney series Phineas and Ferb. This is merely a recent example of the variety of roles he's had in his approximately ten-year career. As his credits and the showreel on his profile on his agent's website show, he is not likely to be typecast and has done a variety of roles, many of them with very deep storylines.
I would be interested in seeing him in just about anything, but there is something in particular that I would like him to do. It would be cool if he did film adaptation of the book, Dracula, My Love by Syrie James, a romanticized version of the original story. He would be a good Dracula, as he is a dark character, but in this book, he also has a vulnerable, sensitive side.
