his second language. Taught himself sign language. He is able to speak
with fluent British accent(as he spent a long time learning from the
Harry Potter films and James Bond films). When Anthony travelled to
London, he practiced his accent as well. For Anthony, after watching
Harry Potter films and reading the books he realized how much he loved
movies and everything about them. But it wasn't until 2012, when The
Hunger Games came out, that he said to himself, "That's what I wanna
do!" and that was when he first set out and got an agent. Vespa is

out of Toronto. Anthony is very comfortable in front of people and
large crowds. Has done many plays in school as well as speeches,
televised announcements and school videos. Though he has had a few
auditions for television and commercials, all he has done is background
work. He hopes to one day (soon) be starring in movies and later on
directing and producing films, and earn an Academy award. His idols and
favourite actors include; Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, Mark Wahlberg,
Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, Rupert Grint, Jennifer Lawrence, Chloe
Grace Moretz and Johnny Depp.
