The guy died in 1999.  I guess he's confused with another Anthony Newley...

According to one web search, April 14, 1999, in Florida was Newley's date and place of death. So the information on IMDb appears to be correct.

Please write back if you have specific questions about the name page.

I am so happy you verified his date of death.  It means he could not have been working for the past 20 years.  And that is what I was bringing to your attention.  Thank you for the confirmation that the details of his working for the past 20 yeas could not be correct. 

This contact was just a courtesy. Thought imdb would be interested. 

Thanks Jack.

Jack,

Many of the credits after his 1999 death are listed in the Soundtrack section. The titles after that year are acknowledgments of his prior songwriting work that was used in later projects. It is possible for anyone, even an actor, to receive a posthumous credit for work done in their lifetime. 

I hope this clarifies the issue. Thanks for writing.
