Anthony Mackie, who will be seen in The Falcon And The Winter Soldier very soon, has finally responded to the question, "Who Is The New Captain America?". Speculations and multiple theories regarding the same have come out ever since Chris Evans bid farewell to the shield-wielding super soldier in the 2018 film, Avengers: Endgame. In order to address the speculations in connection to who is the new Captain America going to be, Anthony Mackie made an appearance on The Jess Cagle Show of SiriusXM and shared a handful of details.

What did Anthony Mackie exactly say:

The episode in question saw Mackie saying something on the lines of that nothing is known to the fans or the cast members as yet. Adding to that, Mackie implied that the very same question that the fans have been asking since Endgame is one of the looming questions in the background of the series, very much like the "Will They or Won't They" conundrum that is observed in sitcoms and shows which have a yet-to-be-realized love story as one of its plotlines. In addition to that, the actor said that the whole idea behind the show stems from the final scene between Mackie and Evans in the 2018 superhero outing, but exclaimed that at no point in the sequence, Mackie agreed to take up the shield and the mantle, which is something that will leave the fans guessing until perhaps the end of the first season of The Falcon And The Winter Soldier.
