Honorable Mention

Anthony Molinari was born in Worcester, Massachusetts to his wonderful parents, William and Joyce, alongside his brother, Billy, and sister, Christina. He earned his degree in Sociology and Education from Bowdoin College in Brunswick, Maine. After graduating, he began teaching early elementary education, where he was inspired by one of his students to follow his passion of becoming a stuntman. Soon after, he moved to Hollywood to pursue the entertainment business.

While breaking into the stunt industry and becoming one of the elite performers in that arena, Anthony discovered a love for acting. It started with his performance on the feature film The Fighter, playing Shea Neary opposite Mark Wahlberg and Christian Bale. That role got him a part in Papa, playing FBI agent John Fletcher across from Giovanni Ribisi and Mika Kelly. While on location in Cuba, he auditioned and booked his next role as Charlie McTiernan for the feature Black Mass with Jesse Plemons and Johnny Depp. It was on that night that Director Scott Copper took Anthony aside and said, "You have what it takes...You should go for it." So that's what he did, and since then he has booked roles like Buzzcut in Jack Reacher across Tom Cruise, Rocky Marciano in Barry Levingston's movie The Survivor, and in Christopher Nolan's pictures Tenet and Oppenheimer. As of 2022 he is a guest star on the HBO TV series Perry Mason playing Big Marv and the menacing Shane Taylor on Barry with Bill Hader. Over the last 20 years, Molinari has performed in over 200 different television shows and feature films. He has been blessed to work with some of the best directors and actors in the business and is truly grateful for his success.
