Anthony Mackie hits the big screen in Pain & Gain this week but comic book fans are thrilled to see how the actor will look as Falcon in Captain America: The Winter Soldier. Mackie was approached by Marvel to play Sam Wilson (aka Falcon) who has served as an Avenger, SHIELD agent and most importantly, the partner and best friend of Steve Rogers.

Mackie tells Collider how joining the blockbuster Marvel Cinematic Universe could impact his career.

“I mean, you know, you do the Marvel movies to garner you the ability to do the movies that you really want to do – the other movies, the smaller movies, you know. So it depends on what exactly you want to do. You know, doing a movie like Captain America – that puts your name in the mouth of everyone in this country and in the living room of everybody so, you know, once that comes out then you can go to the studio and tell them the kind of movie you really want to do.”

Anthony Mackie as the Falcon in Captain America The Winter Soldier?

  Chris Evans will play the star-spangled Avenger again in Captain America The Winter Soldier based on the modern-day classic when Cap’s best friend is resurrected as the ultimate assassin.

  If you have a modern-day Cap adventure you must have Falcon. Anthony Mackie is in talks to play Cap’s partner according to The Hollywood Reporter Heat Vision. Falcon aka Sam Wilson is one of the first African-American heroes in modern comics. Wilson was born in Harlem and became Cap’s partner in the 1970’s and has served as an Avenger. Wilson’s suit allows him to fly and enhances his strength. He can also communicate with birds telepathically and has an actual falcon with him on missions.

  What do you think? Mackie is an excellent choice. I’m thrilled to see more of Cap’s allies in the sequel. I just hope we have Sharon Carter aka Agent 13 in the sequel!

  No official word that Marvel will make Black Panther the next hero to leap from comics to the big screen. Anthony Mackie (Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, The Hurt Locker) tells The Daily Beast he would love to suit up as T’Challa.

 “If Black Panther is made into a movie, I would love for it to be along the lines of Batman. It has to be an adult action hero. I would love to be a part of it, though, and I would sign on to it today.”

  Mackie is a great actor but I still stand by my choice of Idris Elba (Thor, Prometheus, Luther.)
