After Caesar's assassination in 44 BC, Antony joined forces with Marcus Aemilius Lepidus, another of Caesar's generals, and Octavian, Caesar's great-nephew and adopted son, forming a three-man dictatorship known to historians as the Second Triumvirate. Sextus Pompey, son of Caesar's old rival Pompey Magnus, was given command of the Republic's fleet from his base in Sicily while Brutus and Cassius were granted the governorships of Macedonia and Syria respectively. With the help of Antony's brother, the consul of 41 BC Lucius Antonius, Fulvia encouraged the senate to oppose Octavian's land policies. Caesar's rapid advance surprised Pompey, who, along with the other chief members of the Optimates, fled Italy for Greece. Pacorus did not trust this information and decided to cross the river much farther downstream; this was what Ventidius hoped would occur and gave him time to get his forces ready.

However, after a short stay in Tyre, he was forced to sail with his army to Italy to confront Octavian due to Octavian's war against Antony's wife and brother.

In late 42 he and Cassius met Mark Antony and Octavian (later the emperor Augustus) in two battles at Philippi.

Sometime between 54 and 47 BC, the union produced a single known child, Antonia. When Antony protested, Caesar was forced to withdraw the motion out of shame. Although Cassius was "the moving spirit" in the plot, winning over the chief assassins to the cause of tyrannicide, Brutus, with his family's history of deposing Rome's kings, became their leader.

[66] In particular, the offices assigned to both Brutus and Cassius by Caesar were likewise ratified. [22][23] The Triumvirate used Publius Clodius Pulcher, Antony's patron, to exile their political rivals, notably Cicero[24] and Cato the Younger.

Whatever conflicts existed between himself and Caesar, Antony remained faithful to Caesar, ensuring their estrangement did not last long.

This provoked a pitched battle on 3 October 42 BC. Instead of immediately pursuing Pompey and the remaining Optimates, Caesar returned to Rome and was appointed Dictator with Antony as his Master of the Horse and second in command. Roman historian Cassius Dio later recorded that while Antony, as consul, maintained the advantage in the relationship, the general affection of the Roman people was shifting to Octavian due to his status as Caesar's son.[75][76].

This was done against the orders of the senate but with the approval of Pompey, then Rome's leading politician, and only after the deposed king provided a 10,000 talent bribe. Relations among the triumvirs were strained as the various members sought greater political power. Antony and Cleopatra then spent the winter of 41 BC together in Alexandria.

[116][117] Away in the East and embarrassed by Fulvia's actions, Antony gave no instructions to his legions. His physical energy was of the same order. Octavian proclaimed himself consul, rewarded his soldiers, and then set about prosecuting Caesar's murderers. If he had not done this when he did it, Rome and the Greco-Roman world might have succumbed, before the beginning of the Christian era, to barbarian invaders in the West and to the Parthian Empire in the East. This new delay caused Antony to quarrel with Octavian, forcing Octavia to mediate a truce between them. In the following years, Octavian, who was known as Augustus after 27 BC, managed to accumulate in his person all administrative, political, and military offices.
