Anthony Scapelli is a character in the Super Mario Bros. film. He is the leader of a rival plumbing company that is stealing jobs from Mario and Luigi. Anthony Scapelli wants Princess Daisy and her friends to stop fossil digging because it's hurting his business. He goes as far as to send workers to sabotage the dig. Later, President Koopa tells him that a human has accidentally broken the wall between dimensions, making it easier for him to invade Earth. Mario reasons that it must have been Anthony Scapelli and his employees. When he does invade it, Anthony is the first and only human that de-evolves, turning him into a simian. It is unknown if he returned to normal.
