Henry Jackson Thomas, Jr. (born September 9, 1971) is an American actor and musician. He has appeared in more than 40 films, but is probably best known for his role as Elliott in the 1982 Steven Spielberg film E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial and his part in the 1984 movie Cloak & Dagger.
Thomas was born September 9, 1971 in San Antonio, Texas, USA, the son of Carolyn L. Davis and Henry Jackson Thomas, a hydraulics mechanic.
After E.T., Thomas returned to Texas, acting in film and on TV from time to time while attending school and generally leading the life of a regular kid. He attended East Central High School in San Antonio, Texas and Blinn College in College Station, Texas.
Thomas returned to film in the late 1980's and early 1990's and began to prove himself in adult roles. He is currently both an actor and musician, and performs with the band The Blueheelers.
Thomas's first marriage to Kelly Hill ended in divorce. He married German actress Marie Zielcke in May 2004. They have a daughter, Hazel.
