Anthony Hopkins is a Welsh actor.
History
He came to audition for Mr. Burns' part for A Burns for All Seasons, wheeled in restrained a la Hannibal Lecter. He said "Excellent." and hissed, but was denied.
He also played the character Corky in The Poke of Zorro.
He appears to live in the house opposite of 742 Evergreen Terrace. He was once playing with a remote control car when Luigi told him that his pizza would be late. Hopkins angrily shouted "Damn you. Damn you to Hell!"
Behind the Laughter
