Anthony Anderson

ARCHETYPE

The Disruptor

Contrarian and drawn to the edge; challenges the settled answer.

Anthony Anderson is The Disruptor because he replaced want with claim as a foundational operating principle, then built structure around it. He co-created Blackish rather than waiting for roles to arrive and hosted Netflix's Star Search revival on his own terms. From Compton through network television to a spiritual framework for manifestation he now teaches emerging talent, Anderson has consistently refused the premises of the industry he works inside. His leadership is self-originated.

IN THEIR WORDS, WHY DISRUPTOR

I no longer want anything in life, because all that ever did was create a want for it. I claimed things as my own — that's how I've been able to get through auditions and everything.

ON MANIFESTATION PHILOSOPHY

When I didn't feel there were opportunities for me, I went out and created my own opportunities. Never be afraid to challenge things and to take on a challenge for yourself.

ADVICE TO ASPIRING COMEDIAN CALLER

I can sit here as a living testament to that. Stop wanting for things and claim those things and you will have them.
