Scott Antony

British actor

Scott Antony (born 29 June 1950 in Newcastle upon Tyne) is a British former actor best known for playing the role of Henri Gaudier-Brzeska in Savage Messiah (1972).

He was chosen to play the lead straight from drama school. Director Ken Russell said Antony "was chosen out of 300 actors I saw because he was the only one I thought could pick up a hammer and hit a stone. Being an artist is a physical thing."[1]

He went on to star in the Woodfall film, Dead Cert (1974), directed by Tony Richardson and also featuring Judi Dench.

He retired from acting to move into the culinary arts.[2]
