Anthony in Macbeth!
According to the official Anthony Head site, Anthony will play the character of 'Duncan' in a modern version of Shakespeare's classic tale - 'Macbeth' |
Tony filmed an independent film version of 'Macbeth' in January 2006, playing the character, Duncan. All Tony's scenes were filmed on location in London. The director of the play describes the part: "Tony plays Duncan as a spitting, cigar-chomping criminal leader, with a soft Glaswegian accent that can turn in an instant from warm and affectionate to fatally menacing. As Duncan he plays a pivotal role in the film - he is both Macbeth's boss and paternal figure, whom Macbeth is driven to murder by his own uncontrollable ambition. The murder of Duncan reflects the loss of the last of the old-school gangsters as a new generation rise to power, a generation without the same moral sensibilities and rules of conduct as Duncan's - much as Brando's Don Corleone is ousted by a younger more reckless generation in The Godfather."
Synopsis:
In the violent underbelly of a powerful city, one man’s blows ring out from the street fights above everybody else’s. Part of a noble gang, feared by the villainous, respected by the community, the vigilante Macbeth protects his friends and neighbours from the violent crime committed by malevolent street gangs. Something wicked this way comes: A meeting with three mystics foreseeing Macbeth’s control of the gang, combined with the driving ambition of his loving wife, prompts Macbeth to grasp his destiny through violent means. Instability within the gang ensues, with Macbeth murdering anyone who poses a threat to his new-found power. Directed by visions and supernatural visitings, Macbeth now leads a brutal and immoral gang by example, as the bloodshed spirals out of control as fast as Macbeth and his wife plummet into madness.
