Early life

[edit]

Anthony Michael Jennings grew up in Barangay Mambugsay, Cauayan, Negros Occidental with his grandparents. His father is British, and his mother is a Filipina. In an article, he describes his childhood years as constantly moving from one house to another due to financial problems.[2][4] He also stated that he only finished second grade and was not able to learn how to read or write early on. When he was auditioning for a role in a show, he only knew how to read but didn't know how to write yet. He later learned to read and write.[2][4][5]

Acting career

[edit]

Jennings was included in the pool of Star Magic actors and actresses in 2019, alongside Belle Mariano. He started his acting career in the film Hello, Love, Goodbye, and was also included in Love at First Stream and The House Arrest of Us. His first television appearance was on the romantic comedy series Make It with You, but the show was cancelled due to the outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic.[2][4]

After his stint in The Iron Heart, Jennings was cast in Can't Buy Me Love and played the character of Snoop Manansala, the street-smart best friend of Bingo Mariano (Donny Pangilinan) who has a sense of humor.[3]

Jennings was appointed as an endorser of Mang Inasal Pork barbecue alongside Maris Racal.[6] He also has a YouTube channel.[4]
