Matt Thompson was born to Tim and Cindy Thompson in the small town of
Roseville, California. At the age of 6, Matt found his parent's
camcorder and discovered his love for film. However, it wasn't until he
was 18 that it was what he decided to make his life's work.
Since then, Matt has appeared in over 10 feature films. He has led or co-starred in half, working with some of the industry's leading names. In 2009, Matt made his feature directorial debut with the feature film, Listen to Your Heart (2010), starring Cybill Shepherd, Shirley Knight and Ernie Sabella. In the same year, Matt helped produce another film in which he starred and went right onto the stage in "A Streetcar Named Desire", as the lead, "Stanley Kowalski". The play received a 5-star review from the Sacramento News and Review. Shortly after, Matt went on to produce and direct his screenplay, Bloodline (2013), in which he also plays the lead role. The 2010 March issue of Sacramento Magazine named him 1 of 15 people to watch early in their careers on their cover story.
With his love for being in front and behind the camera as an actor and director, Matt continues to grow his career. Although busy with post-production for the last film, Matt has ambitious goals set already to produce the next.
