Sir Anthony Hopkins is dropping “The Eternal Collection”, his first NFT drop, in September. The unique digital assets are a fascinating blend between Hopkins’ most famous movie roles and his imagination as a visual artist.
From Hannibal Lecter to Odin, the Oscar-winning actor will give us an insight into his imagination – here’s everything we know so far:
What should you know about Anthony Hopkins’ NFTs?
Anthony Hopkins is officially launching his own NFT collection titled “Eternal Collection”. Accordingly, the digital assets are inspired by 10 of the most significant movie roles Hopkins has ever played. The list includes Hannibal Lecter of “The Silence of the Lambs” and the iconic “Thor” character Odin.
Surprisingly, Hopkins will portray each of these characters in a unique manner, using his own painting style. To clarify, there will be 10 archetypes imagined by the actor himself. For example, the “Rebel” archetype is wearing Hannibal Lecter’s iconic mask. Meanwhile, The Hero is a balance between darkness and light.
All in all, there will be 1,111 NFTs ready to find their holders.
