Anthony Mackie was excellent as Sam Wilson, aka The Falcon, in Captain America: The Winter Soldier. He really fit the role and brought The Falcon to the big screen.
He recently had a video interview with I Am Rogue, which you can see below. In the interview, he talks about the news that Falcon will return for Captain America: Civil War. He hasn’t been privy to any of the details. In fact, he has tried to get some details from his buddy, Chris Evans (aka Captain America). Mackie seems very excited by whatever role The Falcon will play in Civil War.
Anthony was asked if he had read the comic mini-series. He confirmed that he had read it and was amazed by the scope of it. He stated that he has no idea how they will cram that large of a story into a movie.
Mackie was also asked how he would like his costume to change for Captain America 3. He jumped at the opportunity to mention that he wanted his “bird”. He is referencing The Falcon’s pet/partner falcon- Redwing. He also really wants to wear Spandex.
Anthony was asked about showing up in other films. He stated that he hasn’t filmed any scenes for other movies. He is hoping they will stick him in some of the re-shoots for Avengers: Age of Ultron but hasn’t been asked yet. He went on to state that he would love to show up in every upcoming Marvel movie from Doctor Strange to Ant-Man to Guardians of the Galaxy 2. ” Me and Groot can boogie!’
Check it out. It is very entertaining.
