Shea Whigham Homecoming
He appeared as Thomas Carrasco in season one of Homecoming. Thomas Carrasco is a Department of Defense bureaucrat who is investigating Heidi Bergman’s job at a secret government facility. We learn nothing about Carrasco’s life outside of his position with the DoD. In a show where even the villains’ personal lives are heavily portrayed, we never see him call a spouse or family member to inform them that he will be working late, implying that he is most likely single. (In Episode 7, “Test,” he fixes Ellen Bergman’s record player, and their conversation as Heidi enters implies Carrasco is educated about many types of stereo, so perhaps he is a hi-fi fanatic in his spare time.)
Carrasco is often quiet and reserved, with some social and physical clumsiness. When confronted with a difficult decision, he stims by clicking the button on one of his pens. He is extremely honest and attentive, and despite the fact that he is only authorized to elevate or reject complaints, he does his job to the best of his skills, even when his own employer tries to discourage him from giving so much attention to this particular issue.
Shea Whigham Boardwalk Empire
He stars as Atlantic County Sheriff Eli Thompson, the former Atlantic County Sheriff and the younger brother of Atlantic City crime boss Nucky Thompson in the first, second, third and fourth seasons. As the brother of Atlantic County Treasurer Nucky Thompson, Eli, unsurprisingly, rises to the position of Sheriff. He and his brother work well together to maintain control of the city’s corrupt administration and underworld. Unspoken tension prevails between the brothers, with rivalry and hatred lurking beneath the facade of happy faces.
