No Second Season of 'The Falcon and the Winter Soldier' Dampens Anthony Mackie's Excitement for 'Brave New World'

In a recent interview with Radio Times, Anthony Mackie expressed his disappointment that 'The Falcon and the Winter Soldier' did not get a second season. The actor, who plays Sam Wilson/Captain America in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, said he was looking forward to doing another season with Sebastian Stan as Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier and Daniel Brühl as Helmut Zemo.

“I was actually excited to do a second season, just so me and Sebastian [Stan] can get paid to hang out,” Mackie said. “Because it's like me, him and Daniel Brühl. It's kind of like the perfect storm of happiness.”

Mackie explained that he enjoyed the camaraderie with his co-stars and found the show to be a lot of fun to make. “I really enjoyed doing that show,” he said. “It was a great experience, and I loved working with the cast and crew.”

However, Mackie's hopes for a second season were dashed when Marvel Studios decided to bring back his character in the upcoming film 'Captain America: Brave New World' instead.

“When they decided to go back to the movies, it is what it is, but I don’t have my friends anymore, so it kind of dampens it a little bit,” Mackie said.

“I’m going to miss them a lot,” Mackie said. “They’re great actors and great friends, and I’ll always cherish the time we had together on the show.”
