Thompson Blake

Thompson Blake is an American actor whose career spans over thirty years on both sides of the camera. His journey began in his hometown of Marietta, GA where he would regularly produce short films and videos using his siblings, cousins and other neighborhood kids. After landing a guest spot on the hit series In the Heat of the Night, he moved to Los Angeles where he began auditioning and taking classes. However, his acting endeavors were put on hold when he landed a job working behind the camera. Looking to expand his knowledge and expertise, he continued to work on various film projects from independents like Angel 4: Undercover to big budget spectaculars like Warner Bros. Space Jam. During this time, he also wrote, produced and directed a 35mm short starring himself and Walton Goggins, a project that reflected his commitment to storytelling from both sides of the camera.

In 2011, Thompson returned to acting with a renewed sense of purpose, bringing maturity and depth to his work. Having trained with such gurus as Harry Mastrogeorge, David LeGrant, Alice Carter and Cameron Thor and known today for roles in projects like Ozark, Will Trent, The CW's Dynasty and the award-winning web-series The Rolling Soldier, he continues to pursue his craft with dedication and focus. With every new role, Thompson aims to bring authenticity, depth and a storyteller's heart to the screen. He is represented in Atlanta, Los Angeles and New York.
