Nico Antonio

Nico Antonio’s filmography is kinda wild, honestly. The guy bounces between genres like he’s allergic to being typecast. In Delia & Sammy (2018), you see him dig deep into the world of two old souls—Delia, a washed-up actress, and Sammy, a cranky ex-cop. Basically, it’s a story about aging, regrets, and the weird, stubborn love that sticks around even when everything else is falling apart. There’s this rawness to it, not all shiny and polished, but messy in a way that feels real. Nico doesn’t just play a role—he disappears into it, adding this layer of awkward humanity that’s hard to fake. Then there’s Big Night (2021), which, wow, totally flips the mood. This one’s set in the middle of a city on edge, right before a huge, make-or-break moment for the LGBTQ+ community. Nico’s part pulls you into the anxiety, the hope, and the chaos of a night where everything’s on the line. It’s sharp, tense, sometimes funny in a bleak sorta way, and he just gets the vibe of someone who’s both terrified and determined. Tandem (2015) is another switch-up—think crime, think action, but not in a super predictable, Hollywood way. There’s grit, there’s hustle, and Nico brings this everyman energy that makes the stakes feel legit. He plays off his co-stars with that classic, dry humor, and you can tell he’s having a blast even when things get heavy. All in all, he’s got range, and his movies aren’t afraid to show the weird, messy, totally human side of things.
