Thom Adcox
"Oh my God, that VOICE! You’ve GOT to do something with that VOICE!"
This sentence could have been taken two different ways... Thom chose to take it positively, rather than negatively, which was how it was meant. Those words were said to him following an audition for a casting director back in the late 80’s.
Well, Thom took her advice and started doing something with "that Voice". He has been working pretty much non-stop ever since...
Thom appeared as a series regular on Falcon Crest. He has guest-starred on numerous shows including, Family Matters, The Tracey Ullman Show, Renegade, Homefront and more. His T.V. movie credits include: My Life As A Babysitter, I Saw What You Did, Liberace, The Absent Minded Professor II, Under Fire, and It Came From Outer Space, to name a few.
Thom’s feature film credits include starring with Martin Sheen, Heather Graham and Moira Kelly in Entertaining Angels; For the Boys, with Bette Midler; Under Seige II, Popcorn, Ghoulies III, Interceptor, Final Voyage and Lethal Pursuit.
One day while Thom spoke with his on-camera commercial agent, the voice-over agent walked by. Upon hearing Thom’s voice, he asked Thom to sign with them for voice-over. That voice-over agent happened to be Jamie Thomason. And after a year of auditions, and not booking anything, Thom finally landed a part in The Goof Troop the animated Disney movie, cast by Jamie, who had since moved to casting for Disney. Unfortunately, three months later they replaced Thom’s voice with that of Paulie Shore... but the disappointment didn’t last long because shortly after Jamie brought Thom to Greg Weisman & producers for the role of "Lexington" in the series GARGOYLES. Closely following, Thom booked the role of "Felix" in the CBS remake of Felix The Cat.
Since then, Thom has continued to work in voice-over, making hundreds of commercials for radio and T.V., as well as on animated series including Invasion America for Stephen Spielberg, Jakers, 101 Dalmatians, Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy, All Growed Up, and Jackie Chan (for which there’s talk of a spin-off including Thom’s character and two others), and additionally some Japanese anime. As of 2006, Thom has been working on projects such as the Disney series Maggie in the part of Pupert, Maggie’s little brother, and an episode of W.I.T.C.H.
Thom continues to plug away at his on-camera career while staying extremely busy catering to his three dogs (Sparky, Gunner and Lili Taylor - the magical rat-faced dog), making sure they are spoiled rotten, living in their home in the hills of Los Angeles.
