Anthony Mackie, who played Sam Wilson/Falcon in Captain America: Brave New World, admitted that he initially had no idea that he would be a part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Following a meeting with producers Nate Moore and Joe and Anthony Russo, Mackie discussed the circumstances that led to his selection as Sam Wilson in Captain America: The Winter Soldier in an interview. “Joe Russo said, “Listen, so we’re making this movie,” and I’ll never forget that.” Mackie elucidated. “We want you to participate. We are unable to disclose the role you will be performing or the other cast members. What do you think? Then it was over. ‘You know what, fellas, I like y’all. Yes, I will. I’ll accompany you on this voyage. A few weeks later, Mackie would find out that he had been chosen to play The Falcon.

Kevin Feige, president and chief operating officer of Marvel Studios, said in 2021 that Mackie was selected as The Falcon without having to go through an audition and that he was “the unanimous first choice to play the character.” I believed he would be fantastic in this role, Feige added. Sam Wilson was cast in Captain America: The Winter Soldier as we frequently do when casting, but if all goes well, that character might develop into a variety of other roles. You want a performer that is versatile, and Anthony is undoubtedly that.

Mackie talked on what distinguished Sam from the other Avengers when it came to his duty as the new Captain America, remarking at the time that Sam was a superhero who wasn’t truly a superhero. “I just have wings on my suit that I got from the military,” he claimed. So I go about whatever I do like a regular guy. You could think, “Oh, I can be a superhero, too,” when you first see me. In contrast, you can’t compete if you look at Hulk or any of those men. The specifics of Brave New World’s plot are yet unknown. However, it is already known that Tim Blake Nelson, who played Samuel Sterns/The Leader in The Incredible Hulk, will make a comeback. Fans also got a glimpse of the Serpent Society in what appeared to be new outfits in previously released set video, which included Rosa Salazar as Diamondback.
