Thomas Ian Nicholas (not to be confused with Thomas Ian Griffith) is an actor, musician, producer, and Las Vegas native. That explains why we’d love to get lucky with him! The rising star made audience members rise when he furnished his chest and drawers in the now classic American Pie (1999). Even though his character didn’t bang a pastry, he got to baste the muffin on a real live woman while viewers got to savor his tasty torso! Fortunately, the scenes got hotter in the sequel American Wedding (2003) wherein Tom dons bulging briefs as bachelor party strippers gag his mouth and bind his bare chest. Kinky! But before Thomas literally lost his top, he paid his dues as a child actor. After making his movie debut in Radio Flyer (1992), the brunette ingenue starred in the sports comedy Rookie of the Year (1993) and the Mark Twain fantasy A Kid in King Arthur’s Court (1995). The latter stint paid off with a Young Artist Award nomination. For Nicole Holofcener’s indie flick Please Give (2010), Nicholas received the Independent Spirit Robert Altman Award for ensemble cast which he shared with Catherine Keener, Amanda Peet, Rebecca Hall, and Oliver Platt. If that’s not impressive enough, the busy babe portrayed Frank Sinatra, Jr. in the TV movie Stealing Sinatra (2003); Abbie Hoffman in The Chicago 8 (2011); a young Walt Disney in the biopic Walt Before Mickey (2015); and a youthful Martin Scorsese in the dramedy Zeroville (2019). Hopefully, Thomas plays Harry Reems next!
