The actor/artist, who turned 81 on December 31st, isn’t slowing down any time soon. In addition to playing King Lear in a 2018 TV movie adaptation of the Shakespeare play, Hopkins currently stars as Dr. Robert Ford on Westworld, which will be returning for a season three in 2020. This year, Hopkins can be seen in Elyse, a new drama from Stella Hopkins, Anthony’s wife since 2003, who is making her director debut with the feature.
The actor is also currently in production for The Pope, in which he’ll be portraying Pope Benedict opposite Jonathan Pryce‘s Pope Francis. The film is being helmed by Fernando Meirelles, the Brazilian film director best known for City of God and The Constant Gardner.
Hopkins can also be seen in the upcoming drama Now Is Everything alongside Madeline Brewer (The Handmaid’s Tale, Orange is the New Black) and Melora Walters (Magnolia, Venom). The two actresses are reuniting after the success of 2018’s horror film, Cam.
