Mark Antony was a loyal supporter and ally of Julius Caesar, serving as a military commander and a key political figure in his administration. After Caesar's assassination, Antony sought to avenge his death and consolidate power, often positioning himself against Brutus, one of the leading conspirators. His famous funeral speech for Caesar galvanized public support against Brutus and the other assassins, ultimately leading to a civil war. Thus, Antony acted as both a devoted follower of Caesar and a fierce adversary to Brutus in the struggle for control of Rome.
Octavian and Marc Antony avenged Caesar's death at the battle of Philippi, where they defeated the armies of Brutus and Cassius. Brutus and Cassius both committed suicide after their loss.
Brutus's decision to allow Mark Antony to speak at Caesar's funeral underestimated Antony's rhetorical skill and his bond with the Roman populace. By not silencing Antony and permitting him to incite the crowd, Brutus inadvertently fueled a rebellion against the conspirators. Additionally, his failure to take decisive action against Antony after Caesar's assassination contributed to the chaos that ultimately led to Brutus's downfall and the defeat of the conspirators. These choices revealed Brutus's naivety and misguided sense of honor, sealing his tragic fate.
Yes, both Brutus and Antony are persuasive speakers, but they employ different techniques. Brutus appeals to reason and ethics, presenting his justification for Caesar's assassination as a necessary act for the greater good of Rome, which resonates with the crowd's sense of honor. In contrast, Antony uses emotional appeal and rhetorical questions, invoking the crowd's feelings of loyalty to Caesar and stirring their emotions to incite rebellion. Ultimately, Antony's speech proves more effective in swaying public opinion.
Antony and Brutus were two very different men, who fought for two very different causes but in turn they were very much alike in character. Antony's true character shown through greatly when he walked up upon the body of Brutus. Though one may have been more of a radical while the other more down to earth both fought for what they believed in and did not let anything get in their way. Caesar's will states what he wants for Rome and Antony strives to complete his desired wishes. Brutus and Antony are by far the most noble characters in Julius Caesar. In the beginning Brutus is a loyal follower of Caesar but then is told by Cassius that Caesar is using his power for impure reasons Brutus turns against Caesar. Once Caesar is dead the fate of Rome is up in the air. Antony is joined by Octavius and Lepidus to form the triumvirate. While the triumvirate easily agreed on decisions Brutus and Cassius bickered most of the time but once it got down to begin the war they began to understand each other and united. "A friend should bear his friend's infirmities. Brutus tries to obtain the same status that Caesar had and have the people of Rome believe that Caesar was an impure man. "This was the noblest Roman of them all.
Although both Brutus and Antony offered eulogies, Antony offered one tempered with sarcasm and disrepute, while Brutus's was sincere with praise and good will.
Both of the Brutii. Marcus Brutus and Decius Brutus were both Caesar's friends, Decius even being mentioned in Caesar's will.
They both commited suicide due to realizing that they were losing the battle against Antony and Octavius at Phillipi. They are different because Cassius didn't neede to beg anyone to kill him his slave Pindarus had no trouble killing Cassius because it meant he was free from his rule and Cassius wouldn't be missed by most where as Brutus had to beg his soldiers to kill him because Brutus was an honorable man and prior to the speech of Antony at Caesar's funeral, was beloved by by the Romans.eventually the slave named Clitus allowed Brutus to run upon his sword.
Both were achieved by defeating rival groups of aristocrats - Julius over Pompey and his family and the Cassius-Casca-Brutus gang, and Augustus over Mark Antony.

It depends what you think "involved in" means; none of the people responsible for Caesar's death were responsible for Brutus's. Mark Antony was present shortly after both events, if that is what it means to be "involved in" the deaths. It's sort of the same way that Lyndon Johnson was involved in JFK's death.
