Back in the site's first full year, I did a Blast from the Past piece, (HERE:) featuring model and actor Antony Hamilton. Although I was a little young to remember watching Cover-Up, (1985) some of you may remember that Antony was cast in the CBS detective series after the tragic death of original cast member Jon-Erik Hexum. The show never recovered and was cancelled after Antony completed just 14 episodes.
Originally from England, Antony grew up in Australia where he studied ballet. While touring in the early 70's with the Australian Ballet Company, he was discovered by a photographer which led him to leave dance and spend the next decade modeling throughout the US, Europe, Asia and Africa.
Modeling eventually led to acting and in 1979, Antony was cast in his first feature film, the horror flick Nocturna: Granddaughter of Dracula. After a few small roles in features, Antony settled into television roles includeing the 1988 re-boot of Mission Impossible. Sadly, Hamilton died from AIDS-related pneumonia in Los Angeles in March of 1985.
Although I never saw Hamilton in Cover-Up, when I got a bit older, I certainly took notice of some of the beefcake promotional photos, like the ones seen below, for the show. Recently, I read he did a nude scene in that first film Nocturna. It was initially hard to find. Although Antony had a short career, he used three different names, (Tony, Anthony and Antony) during the time.
Well I found that movie, and that scene, and although it's quick, there is indeed a brief flash of butt. Watch the scene and check out some caps on the NEXT PAGE HERE:
