Anthony Mackie hypes up Black Panther: Wakanda Forever after paying a visit to the set of the Marvel Cinematic Universe sequel, though says he's not in the movie. Mackie made his debut in the MCU with Captain America: The Winter Soldier as Sam Wilson, a former Air Force Pararescueman who becomes a close friend and ally of Chris Evans' titular hero and utilizes his mechanical flight suit for good under the alias Falcon. After being a supporting player in a number of other MCU projects, Mackie would get the chance to co-lead his own title with The Falcon and the Winter Soldier in which he starred alongside Sebastian Stan and became the MCU's new Captain America.
Plot details for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever are currently under wraps as development on the film had to undergo a major shift following the death of original star Chadwick Boseman and Marvel Studios electing not to recast the role of T'Challa. The MCU sequel will see the returns of Lupita Nyong'o, Dania Gurira, Martin Freeman, Letitia Wright, Winston Duke and Angela Bassett and introduce Dominique Thorne as Riri Williams ahead of her Ironheart Disney+ show. Following a number of starts and stops, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever finally wrapped filming in March and one MCU star is sharing some insight for what's to come from the film.
