Who plays Anthony in Lockwood and Co? This article discusses Anthony Lockwood and other cast members in the Netflix thriller Lockwood and Co.
The Netflix thriller Lockwood and Co sees a trio of teens battle ghosts and uncover mysteries in an alternative England. Adults can’t see the spirits roaming around London and elsewhere, but thankfully children can. This means that they form the tip of investigative efforts to remove spirits and address what’s referred to as The Problem.
The show is based on the five-part book series by Jason Stroud, and the Netflix adaptation covers the first two entries, The Screaming Staircase and The Whispering Skull. It’s received praise for its style of worldbuilding and dry British wit, and director Joe Cornish has also been praised for managing the heavy lore that the book series has at its disposal.
Another part of the show that has been praised is Cameron Chapman’s calm and confident Anthony Lockwood. The upcoming actor has come fresh out of college and whisked onto the Netflix production, and has thrived.
