Who is he, the man who played a stiff Englishman with a dark past, a good mentor and almost a father for Buffy? Anthony was born on February 20, 1954 in London, in the Camden Town area. Senior Head was the director who produced documentaries and founded Verity Films. Anthony's mom was playing on stage. Anthony has an older brother. His name is Murray Head and he is also a singer and actor. True, he is older than Anthony for eight years. An interesting fact is that Head and his brother played the same roles in several productions, only in different years.
Anthony always wanted to follow in the footsteps of his parents and brother. Therefore, no one was surprised at the decision of the guy to enter the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art. The first debut Head took place in 1971. Then he played a part in the musical "Godpole". A talented guy was noticed, and he began to receive roles on television. For example, one of the most famous roles of Anthony is the role in the series "Enemy at the Gates", which was broadcast on British television from 1978 to 1980. At the same time, Anthony not only played, but also sang. He became the vocalist of the group "Red Box". And in those years Anthony met a girl who became his love and companion for life. Her name is Sarah Fisher and today the couple have two beautiful daughters - Daisy and Emily. Daisy is nineteen years old, and Emily is twenty-two years old.
But back to how the future Observer Giles became popular. In fact, this story is rather prosaic and it's hard to be proud of. Just Head has appeared in a series of commercials for coffee "Nescafe". It was thanks to this that he was noticed and remembered not only in England, but also in America. The director of the series "Buffy" Joss Vedon drew attention to him, and after reading the biography, without hesitation approved him for the role in the series. Of course, probably, none of the actors did not expect that the series will make such a sensation, and they will all become really famous. But, thanks to the fact that each actor seriously approached the role and made a part of himself in it, the series was really wonderful. Anthony was given the role of Repel Jaels, an Englishman in a tweed jacket, who likes to constantly wipe glasses when he does not want to see and rummage in books. Of course, in fact, this character is not as one-sided as it might seem. There are many facets in it and all this thanks to Entôoni. He is really a talented actor, to whom many partners on the TV series often sought advice. But most of all Anthony helped James Marsters, the performer of the role of Spike. As you know, Spike is a purebred Briton. And James is a native American. Therefore, he constantly had to work on the accent, in which the guy was greatly helped by the Englishman Anthony. In addition, he gave a lot of advice on the game, for which James is very grateful. In general, both James and Anthony, first of all, theatrical actors, so it was easier for them to understand each other, thanks to the similar style of the game.
In general, on the set of this series Anthony felt very comfortable. But he missed his family, because he had to move to the States and see his family only in the summer. This was the main reason that in the middle of the sixth season Giles decided to return to England, because he could not give anything to his fighter. Of course, the fans were very worried, but Anthony reassured them that he wanted to just stay with his family, but they would still see him and Giles would return. And it happened, because the actor appeared in the final series of the sixth season, and then his character was involved in half of the series of the seventh season.
After the end of the shooting, Anthony became a celebrity. He was invited to appear in the series "Bes in the rib" and Anthony perfectly performed his comedic role of Lovelace at the age. Then Anthony could be seen in the crime drama "The Silent Witness" and the satirical show "Little Britain". In this television show, he played the role of prime minister. And now, as it was said at the beginning of the article, Anthony plays the role of Uther Pendragagon in the TV series "Marilyn" for the second season already. His role as a stern but just king is significantly different from many of his previous roles. In this series, he is no longer a good-natured mentor and not an elderly ladies' man. But this role in the performance of Anthony is very truthful and sincere.
But this is not surprising, because Anthony is a true theater-goer who knows how to play completely different roles. He was shot not only in various serials, but also in very serious screen versions. For example, one of them is Shakespeare's Macbeth. By the way, it's interesting that this is the kind of performance that Anthony always wanted to put on the set of "Buffy", James Marsters. But it was Anthony who was honored to play in the adaptation of this famous play. In this production, Anthony plays the Scottish King Duncan. He also never forgets that he is a singer. Head released a joint album with singer Giordem Sarah, which is called "Music lifts."
Therefore, we can conclude that at the moment Anthony Stewart Head is a happy and successful person. He lives with his beloved woman and daughters, engages in interesting projects and knows that his work always brings him pleasure, and the audience is always happy to see him on the screen.
