Anthony Mackie Sends Message To Tom Holland Ahead of Solo Movie Release: “I’m Going to Make Sure That Marvel Makes Him Come to the Premiere”

In Hollywood, actor feuds often capture widespread attention, unfolding in full view of the public. Some are serious, while others are more lighthearted. If you’re curious about how a clash between two superheroes plays out, look no further than Tom Holland and Anthony Mackie.

Holland’s Spider-Man and Mackie’s Falcon first crossed paths in ‘Captain America: Civil War’ in 2016. During press interviews for the film, Mackie teased Holland, playfully poking fun at him and joking about his need for frequent breaks and supervision on set. This teasing continued in subsequent interviews. Holland remembers a particular incident where he inadvertently stole Mackie’s spotlight by using one of his catchphrases on set, potentially sparking their friendly rivalry.

They’ve traded playful jabs over the years, with both actors engaging in banter. At Comic-Con in 2018, Mackie jokingly admitted he hadn’t seen Holland’s ‘Spider-Man: Homecoming,’ prompting Holland to cleverly respond about Mackie not having his own character-focused project then. This brings us to the focus of our article.

After CinemaCon, where exclusive footage from ‘Captain America: Brave New World’ premiered, Anthony Mackie discussed his plans for Holland now that his solo project is nearing release.

He did that on a very public stage, so I’m going to hold that till the premiere. I’m going to make sure that Marvel makes him come to the premiere, and then I’m going to sit him next to me, and I’m going to watch him watch the movie.

This may come off as a bit sour, but Mackie said it in a joking manner, and it’s important to note that the two are actually close friends off-screen.
