Biography

Bobb'e J. Thompson, a talented child actor, began his career in front of the camera at the tender age of five. He initially gained recognition with a supporting role as the pint-sized Tupac in the 2003 film My Baby's Daddy, showcasing his energetic and colorful personality.

Thompson continued to appear in various television and film projects, including "The Tracy Morgan Show" in 2004, Shark Tale, That's So Raven, and Joey. He also contributed to Bryan Barber's musical drama Idlewild in 2006, before teaming up with Vince Vaughn in the holiday comedy Fred Claus in 2007.

Thompson's breakout role came in 2008 as Ronnie Shields in the comedy Role Models, earning him a nomination for Best Breakthrough Performance - Male at the 2009 MTV Movie Awards.

In 2009, Thompson's career continued to flourish, as he appeared in Land of the Lost alongside Will Ferrell, and Imagine That, a family comedy where he played a junior extortionist. He also became a semi-regular on NBC's "30 Rock," stealing scenes with his perfect comic timing as Tracy Jr., the son of Tracy Morgan's character.

Thompson's commercial success extended to multiple Nike commercials, where he played the fast-talking Lil Dez, giving NBA greats Kobe Bryant and LeBron James a run for their money while babysitting.

Aside from his film work, Thompson garnered favorable attention for his contributions to the youth-oriented urban dance video JammXKids: Can't Dance Don't Want To, showcasing his flair for urban music and footwork.

Upcoming projects for Thompson include Snowmen with Ray Liotta and a hosting gig on the Cartoon Network show Bobb'e Says.

Additionally, Reveille, a leading independent television studio, has entered into a talent holding deal with Thompson. Their first project together will be a half-hour scripted comedy, joining a roster of successful scripted and unscripted television and digital entertainment programs, including "The Office," "Ugly Betty," and "The Tudors."
