Thespis does not appear in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, Thespis (fl. 6th century B.C.E.) has the reputation of being the world's first known actor. He lived in the century before the ancient Greek dramatist wrote his plays about the life and times of disgraced Theban King Oedipus (fl. 12th century B.C.E.). He was not part of the Theban royal family and therefore was not among the cast of characters or chorus.
