Anthony│Official Trailer│Peacock
51Anthony is coming to Peacock on September 4th.
Synopsis: In 2005, 18-year-old Black student Anthony Walker was murdered in an unprovoked, racially motivated attack in Liverpool that shocked the nation. ANTHONY is a powerful feature film that examines the impact of Walker’s murder by exploring what may have happened had he lived. This distinctive drama presents a unique perspective on this devastating crime and the life it took away. Written by BAFTA-winning screenwriter Jimmy McGovern, Anthony’s imagined life is told through reverse chronology as we see him realize his dreams and enjoy the life he had a right to live, before fate – and hate – took it all away. ANTHONY stars Toheeb Jimon (“The Feed”) as Anthony Walker, Rakie Ayola (“Been So Long”) as his mother Gee Walker, Julia Brown (“World on Fire”) as his wife Katherine and Bobby Schofield (“Knightfall”) as his friend Mick. ANTHONY is produced by Colin McKeown and Donna Molloy for LA Productions. The film is directed by Terry McDonough and written by Jimmy McGovern. Colin McKeown, Jimmy McGovern and Terry McDonough serve as executive producers, along with Lucy Richer for the BBC. ITV Studios handles global distribution.
