Christopher Thomas Howell (born 7 December 1966 in Los Angeles, California, USA) is an American actor and director. He made his film debut with a supporting role in E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982), however he had his breakout with a lead role as Ponyboy Curtis in the coming-of-age film The Outsiders (1983).
Following his breakout, he had starring roles in the films Tank (1984), Grandview, U.S.A. (1984), Red Dawn (1984), Secret Admirer (1985), The Hitcher (1986), and Soul Man (1986).
I met Thomas at Comic Con Scotland in Edinburgh in October 2025. He signed my Red Dawn soundtrack album, which had previously been signed by Lea Thompson.
