Tommy Vine was just starting to grow on fans when he drowned at the tragic age of 25. We’ll never know what the promising performer could have achieved had he lived longer. But we can remember the credits he accrued while on earth. The British brunette appeared in several short films, from his screen debut in Ronnie Red Coat (2011) to Resting (2013) with a few 2012 titles (Passengers, Mum Says, 1 Night in Hackney) in between. Soon after, the sexy ingénue made the move to feature-length movies. Thanks to indie filmmaking, Tommy can be seen in Reuben Johnson’s drama Territory (2014), Andrew Blackburn’s rom-com Being Nice (2014), and Barnaby Miller’s drama Strays (2017). Yet the up-and-comer reached a wider audience via English TV. In addition to scoring a 2012 guest spot on the long-running medical series Casualty (1986-present) and a recurring role on the final season of the crime comedy A Touch of Cloth (2012-2014), the boob tube babe made a big impression when he popped up on Top Boy (2011). The Channel 4 thriller stars Kano, Scorcher, Ashley Walters and Kane Robinson but Tommy’s full frontal nudity is the real scene stealer! When the fine Mr. Vine strips in a salon, we get to see his twig and berries! As the naked knockout bares his beautiful abs, ass, and sack, we’re glad the stunner was immortalized on camera. It’s said “only the good die young,” but unfortunately this theory also applies to the good looking. Consequently, Tommy remains forever young.
