Personal details

Cary Christopher

Cary Christopher (born May 6, 2016, in Los Angeles, California) is a dual Italian‑American child actor who has quickly made a name for himself through a mix of soap‑opera drama, primetime guest roles, and a rising profile in film. He began acting at just age 3, earning his first role in a FOX pilot alongside Lea Thompson and Beth Behrs . By age 4, he secured the role of Thomas DiMera in the long‑running soap Days of Our Lives, taking over the part in May 2020 . His portrayal of Thomas, the DiMera family’s eldest child—embroiled in dramatic storylines including loss, paternity reveals, and medical crises—earned him a Daytime Emmy nomination in 2023 for “Outstanding Younger Performer in a Daytime Drama Series,” making him one of the youngest ever contenders at just seven years old. Alongside his steady presence on Days, Cary has appeared in episodes of American Horror Stories, Fuller House, Station 19, 9‑1‑1, NCIS, and starred as young Joseph Mankiewicz in the biopic Mank. In 2025, he will co‑star as Alex Lilly—the only child who doesn't disappear—in the Zach Cregger feature Weapons, alongside Josh Brolin and Julia Garner. Off screen, Cary enjoys a typical childhood, playing baseball in spring and soccer in fall, while pursuing music with guitar, keyboard, and singing—often sharing time with his family and their Rat Terrier/Jack Russell, Oreo, in Los Angeles. Known for his poise, charm, and emotional depth well beyond his years, he’s rapidly transitioning from youthful soap‐stardom to broader roles across film and television.
