Despite being review-bombed, She-Hulk: Attorney at Law has a big fan in the MCU's new Captain America, Anthony Mackie. The actor also teases his own future ahead of 2024's New World Order...

Captain America: New World Order star Anthony Mackie is no stranger to internet backlash, particularly as he's the first Black actor to play Captain America on screen. Unfortunately, just like Mackie has been targeted by racist fans, She-Hulk: Attorney at Law has come under fire from sexist ones (that's not to say everyone who dislikes the series is sexist, of course).

During a recent interview with IMDb, Mackie was asked about developing Sam Wilson ahead of the next Captain America movie and praised the latest MCU TV series on Disney+.

"I'm excited, She-Hulk was great! The last series to come out on Disney+," he says. "It's just different than their norm. You could see Marvel giving writers the opportunity to spread their wings and look at the Marvel Universe in a different way. So, Malcolm Spellman and I have been going back and forth. It's really unique to see how the character and the universe is evolving."

Spellman, who served as Head Writer on The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, is writing Captain America: New World Order with Dalan Musson, but Mackie has clearly been playing a pivotal role in where this hero's story goes next. 

Elsewhere in the interview, Mackie also recalled his funniest memory from the set of an MCU project. "I would say the one that cracks me up the most would probably be [when] we were doing the car chase up on the bridge and [Sebastian Stan] sticks his hand through the glass and rips the steering wheel off. If you freeze frame it, the face I made was so ridiculous."

"It was so ridiculous. It was so unassumingly childish. Like the excitement on my face," he continues. "That was probably the one that cracks me up the most."

Watch the full conversation with the actor below. The first five episodes of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law are now streaming on Disney+ and Captain America: New World Order arrives in theaters on May 3, 2024.

@TheWalkingCuban - Wayne’s World 2 is so under rated. And yes, it shouldn’t be a surprise that MCU contracted actors will defend the product.

I think She-Hulk does what it sets out to do well: being an unpretentious series.

I'm enjoying it.

It helps that I interviewed Tatiana Maslany and she was great to me!

@cadunovaesbr - unpretentious?

That's funny

@DarkeyeZ - the majority of people are not. It's the worst rated MCU TV show by a considerable margin. The people enjoying it are few and far between

@BigPhilbowski - I did no such thing.

Funny how idiots like you never acknowledge the review bombing that goes the other way lol.
BigPhilbowski
BigPhilbowski - 9/21/2022, 1:03 PM
@Toblakai - if you think review bombing can go the other way then you need to understand the meaning of the word bombing.
BigPhilbowski
BigPhilbowski - 9/21/2022, 1:04 PM
@Origame - we know it was review bombed because it was filled with 1 star reviews before it even released. With 99% of them coming from men aged 30 to 40
Toblakai
Toblakai - 9/21/2022, 1:13 PM
@BigPhilbowski - lol.

Yeah, 5 star reviews that have 2 words like "Great show!!!!!" or "I loved it!!!" totally aren't review bombing in rhe other direction. It's literally happening right now with that Pro Slave Trade movie The Woman King.

If you actually believe review bombing only goes one way then you're far too stupid to be having this conversation with
BigPhilbowski
BigPhilbowski - 9/21/2022, 1:57 PM
@Toblakai - again learn what it means when something bombs. It can't be positive. And there you go showing your right wing idiocy. The movie you speak of isn't pro slave trade. I know the dumb argument you're about to make so don't bother, it's wrong. Yes that specific tribe wa involved with slavery but that is far removed from the time period and Queen they are focusing on. That's like saying all movies set in the US are pro slavery because they once were involved in slavery. But hey thanks for outing yourself as a clown who parrots others shitty opinions without any idea what you're talking about.

Origame - 9/21/2022, 2:41 PM
@BigPhilbowski - those are people expressing they didn't want to see it. And where are you getting it was from men?

Not to mention the basically equal number of 10 out of 10s. Is that not a problem also?
BigPhilbowski
BigPhilbowski - 9/21/2022, 4:03 PM
@Origame - some sites like imdb give a breakdown of the demographic of the reviewers. Nearly all of the 1 star reviews are from men of that age. And if you really think there's just as many 10/10 reviews as there are 1/10s then I'd suggest you go back and look at the numbers. Last I checked, there's a massive difference between 17k and 35k and they are certainly not "basically equal" as you claim. More bs from you
Origame
Origame - 9/21/2022, 4:38 PM
@BigPhilbowski - yeah, it changed now because the show is trash. And imdb is infamous for making mistakes.

Face it. People just don't like the show.
cadunovaesbr
cadunovaesbr - 9/21/2022, 5:51 PM
@Toblakai - I understand your side of the story.
But it's always good to remember that taste is not discussed, and there are people who like bad things or good things.
I find it unpretentious because I don't believe that Marvel has to make an Engame all the time, because then it will saturate.
cadunovaesbr
cadunovaesbr - 9/21/2022, 5:51 PM
@Origame - But it's! I think it's perhaps the only thing that those who are talking bad and good have in common.
Origame
Origame - 9/21/2022, 6:34 PM
@cadunovaesbr - ...what do you think unpretentious means? Because this is incredibly pretentious.

Toblakai
Toblakai - 9/21/2022, 9:05 PM
@BigPhilbowski - you're a liar and a shill. Nanisca never advocated for her country to get out of the slave trade. That's a total fabrication by the writers of this movie to gloss over the fact that the Dahomey at that tike were fighting against the French to PRESERVE their role in slavery, not fight against "colonizers".

The audacity you have yo screech about parroting opinions is hilarious since you're defending a movie that's straight up bullshit.

Someone exists in an echo chamber that's for sure, but it isn't who you think it is.

The movie isn't pro slave trade you claim.....because the script is total nonsense and filled with lies.

The Dahomey and the Benin deserved everything rhey got and I encourage everyone reading this comment to go research just how badly these despicable human traffickers were slaughtered by French troops. It's absolutely glorious a d makes me smile.
Toblakai
Toblakai - 9/21/2022, 9:06 PM
@cadunovaesbr - that's a fair point for sure. But the verdict is in....the audience is rejecting this show on a massive scale. Another flop from the MCU
Toblakai
Toblakai - 9/21/2022, 9:11 PM
@BigPhilbowski - correction....Nanisca wasn't actually a real person as portrayed here but there was a Warrior with that name recorded amongst the recruits.

Fake character doing fake shit to whitewash the barbarism and atrocities committed by the Dahomey. Let's not forget that in addition to the Dahomey selling an untold number of Africans into slavery to Europeans and Arabs....they also had a massive slave population of their own that they brutalized and used for slave labor.

You can polish a Turd Phil, but it's still going to stink like shit.
Toblakai
Toblakai - 9/21/2022, 9:15 PM
@BigPhilbowski - also, you can whine about right wing this and right wing that till you turn blue in the face but the single largest group of people hating kn thos movie is actually black people, not white people or the right wing.

Go check out Black Twitter if you want to see this dumpster fire getting absolutely savaged by black people.

Of course by doing that you'll have to leave your little echo chamber and I'm not sure if your walnut sized brain could handle the realization that it's black people protesting against this garbage by and large. The realization that you can't blame it all on white people or the right wing might just send you into a psychotic break, life's tough when you have yo use critical thought instead of just screeching "racism" 24/7.
BigPhilbowski
BigPhilbowski - 9/22/2022, 11:01 AM
@Origame - ah yes they changed it by removing positive reviews but left up the negative 1 star ones. Listen to yourself. Now you're just making stupid excuses because you've been proven wrong
Origame
Origame - 9/22/2022, 11:26 AM
@BigPhilbowski - ...I'm saying we naturally got more reviews in as people have actually seen it now.

You're so desperate.
Origame
Origame - 9/22/2022, 11:41 AM
@BigPhilbowski - also, backing up the points being made about the woman king, the dahoney tribe was involved in the slave trade when the movie's events were supposed to take place. The people making the film even had to clarify that it's an alternative history to justify themselves.
