He starred (as himself) in Jackie Chan’s Bleeding Steel, where he also served as the film’s magic consultant. On television, he wrote, produced and starred in The Magic, The Mystery, The Madness, broadcast in 40 countries, and his series The Elements became Asia’s #1 general entertainment show.
Cosentino signed an eight-book deal for the bestselling Mysterious World of Cosentino children’s series—now in development as an animated TV show. His autobiography, Anything Is Possible (HarperCollins), became a 2018 bestseller. He also launched a hit line of magic toys, among the top-selling in Australia.
A Cosentino performance is more than magic—it’s an immersive, edge-of-your-seat spectacle that pushes the boundaries of imagination.
