Orange Comet and Sir Anthony Hopkins recently partnered to launch Anthony Hopkins: The Eternal NFT Collection. That’s right, Sir Anthony Hopkins is fully embracing the Metaverse.
Who is Sir Anthony Hopkins?
Sir Anthony Hopkins is a Welsh actor, director, and producer. The 84 year old star has a shelf of awards from his 60 year (and counting) career in the film industry. However, he then gained notoriety as a painter in 2005. Since then, his pieces often feature in some of the most important art collections worldwide. Now, he’s releasing his first NFT Collection on OpenSea.
What is The Eternal NFT Collection?
According to their site, “The Eternal Collection conceptualizes an interpretation of the vast character archetypes Sir Anthony Hopkins has portrayed over his illustrious film career drawing its potent energy from his stimulating body of art.”
The idea is to immortalize his works, including; The Eternal: The Jester, The Lover, The Rebel, The Hero, and more. This he achieves through deep and emotional images and animations. Of course, each NFT comes with a variety of perks too.
