Avengers: Endgame actor Anthony Mackie welcomes Wyatt Russell to the cast of the Disney Plus series The Falcon and The Winter Soldier with a hilarious photo.
The Falcon and The Winter Soldier star Anthony Mackie welcomed Wyatt Russell to the series with the rest of the main cast members. It’s interesting that Wyatt Russell is the second actor in his family to have a role within the Marvel Cinematic Universe, as his father Kurt Russell played Ego the Living Planet in James Gunn’s Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.2. The upcoming series will be set after the events of Avengers: Endgame where Anthony Mackie’s Falcon took on the Captain America mantle from an older Steve Rogers. Wyatt Russell recently joined the cast as John Walker, a.k.a. U.S. Agent.
Anthony Mackie posted the Falcon and The Winter Soldier cast photo on his Twitter page, with some brilliantly goofy facial expressions to welcome Wyatt Russell with his co-stars Sebastian Stan and Emily VanCamp. In addition to Wyatt Russell’s U.S. Agent, Falcon and The Winter Soldier will also have to contend with Daniel Bruhl’s Baron Zemo in his return from Captain America: Civil War. No doubt he’ll be manipulating this situation to a villainous end. You can check out Anthony Mackie’s photo below.
