The film tells the story of the competition between the New York Yankees' Roger Maris and Mantle to break Babe Ruth's single-season home run record. Thomas' co-star is Barry Pepper. Thomas also starred in the suspense-thriller Original Sin, written and directed by Michael Cristofer. George Litto and Denise Di Novi produced the film that also stars Angelina Jolie and Antonio Banderas.Thomas can be seen in the independent thriller Under Suspicion, directed by Stephen Hopkins and written by Peter Iliff.

Jackson, Saffron Burrows and LL Cool J. In addition, Thomas was seen in Dan Ireland's The Velocity of Gary opposite Vincent D'Onofrio and Salma Hayek.

Based on James Jones' classic novel, Thomas stars with Sean Penn, Nick Nolte, Jim Caviezel, Woody Harrelson, John Cusack and Adrien Brody as a wounded soldier left behind by his platoon during the Battle for Guadalcanal.
Thomas received critical praise for his work in Paul Thomas Anderson's Boogie Nights, starring opposite Mark Wahlberg, Julianne Moore, Burt Reynolds, Don Cheadle, William H. Macy and John C. Reilly.
