He was just 13 years old when he rose to fame on This Is England.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The British actor secured the role after he was spotted at a youth club by This is England director Shane Meadows, and he went on to nab a British Independent film award for best newcomer.<\/p>\n

Most recently, he made his move into Hollywood as he appeared in Mickey 17 alongside Robert Pattinson<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

But the star looked unrecognisable earlier this month as he headed to watch Oasis at Wembley.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Taking to Instagram, the actor shared a picture of himself with musician Tom Grennan ahead of the show.\u00a0<\/p>\n

He\u00a0looked a far cry from his gritty on-screen days as a youngster in Sheffield – but do you know who it is?\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

A British actor, (right) looked unrecognisable as he watched Oasis at Wembley with musician Tom Grennan, (centre) earlier this month – but can you guess who it is?\u00a0<\/p>\n

It’s none other than Thomas Turgoose, who starred as\u00a0Shaun Fields in the 2006 film before reprising the role in TV series This Is England ’86 (2010), This Is England ’88 (2011) and This Is England ’90 (2015).<\/p>\n

In This Is England, Thomas’s character joins a skinhead gang – first led by Woody and then Combo – after losing his father in the Falklands War and getting bullied at school and gets roped into attending National Front meetings.<\/p>\n

Actor Thomas, now 33, was faced with tragedy during his time on This Is England as his mother Sharon died from cancer not long after they wrapped filming.<\/p>\n

This meant that she never saw him in the movie.<\/p>\n

Thomas recently revealed how co-star Stephen Graham had promised his mother Sharon that he would take care of him and offered to adopt him<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Thomas told\u00a0Jamie Laing on the Private Parts podcast: ‘My mum passed away from lung cancer after I finished filming This Is England.\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘She never got to see the finished film.’\u00a0<\/p>\n

Thomas was sent to live with his father Rob after his mother died but the pair did not know each other well at the time.<\/p>\n

This lead to Stephen and director Shane Meadows offering to take him in.<\/p>\n

Thomas said: ‘When my mum died I moved in with my dad and I didn’t know him, so Shane Meadows and Steven Graham were going to adopt me if things didn’t work out with my dad.’<\/p>\n

Since his days on This Is England, Thomas has gone on to secure small film roles, including in 2017’s\u00a0Kingsman: The Golden Circle and 2019’s Avengement.<\/p>\n

He also had a minor role in Game of Thrones\u00a0as a Lannister soldier and featured in 2021 sci-fi series\u00a0Intergalactic.<\/p>\n
