After Julius Caesar's assassination, Cassius wanted to target Mark Antony, viewing him as a potential threat to their newfound power and fearing his influence over the Roman populace. Cassius believed that eliminating Antony was crucial to securing their control and preventing any retaliation from Caesar's supporters. However, the conspirators ultimately focused on consolidating their power rather than pursuing further violence against Antony at that time.
Cassius also wanted to kill Marc Antony, Caesar's closest ally.

Mark Antony - Senator and associate of Ceasar
He is willing to kill Caesar because Cassius convinced him that this is for the people of Rome and Brutus believes him. So Brutus thinks that the conspiracy is killing him for Rome but really they are killing him because they think he will become too powerful
Brutus :) A quote to prove it is: Cassius: Let Antony and Caesar fall together Brutus: Our course will seem too bloody, Caius Cassius ... (Then later in the same monologue) Brutus: And for Mark Antony, think not of him; For he can do no more than Caesar's arm When Caesar's head is off (Act 2, Scene 1, Lines 161-162 and 181-183) Enjoy!
