Thomas was born in Wilmington, Delaware to Carlton Thomas (an engineer for DuPont) and Cheryl (a financial analyst who also worked for DuPont), both of whom immigrated from Guyana. Thomas, who has two younger siblings, graduated from Brandywine High School in Delaware and attended the University of Virginia. He originally intended to study Law, but upon unsuccessfully auditoning for a role in the film A Raisin in the Sun, Thomas changed directions and decided to get his Masters in Drama from New York University.
Thomas began appearing in screen roles in the mid 1990s, and had minor roles in several films, including Conspiracy Theory (1997), Can't Hardly Wait (1998) and Cruel Intentions (1999). His first leading role was in the teen romance, Save the Last Dance, where he starred opposite Julia Stiles. The film opened in January of 2001 and became successful among teen audiences, grossing over $90 million domestically. Subsequently, Thomas appeared in supporting roles in the films Barbershop and Halloween: Resurrection, both of which were released in 2002.
Thomas was a cast member on The District, a television crime drama that aired on CBS from 2000 to 2004.
Thomas married actress Aonika Laurent in New Orleans on Saturday, April 22, 2006. Their wedding had been postponed due to Hurricane Katrina. The couple met at a party thrown by Barbershop director, Tim Story.
