With “WandaVision” wrapping up this week, all eyes are turning towards Anthony Mackie and his upcoming “The Falcon and the Winter Soldier,” as the next project being popped out of the Marvel Studios money printing factory. But unlike “WandaVision” and the future of the Scarlet Witch, not much is known about where Falcon is going to end up at the end of the upcoming series.

Anthony Mackie is ready to step into the Marvel spotlight.

Anthony Mackie had never been the first name on the call sheet.In a galaxy of stars populated by Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans and Scarlett Johansson, the actor was aware of his place in the on-set pecking order, but would never miss an opportunity to make his presence felt.“Number six on the call sheet has arrived!” Mackie would routinely shout on films like “Captain America: Civil War” and the box office-busting “Infinity Saga” sequels, according to Marvel chief creative officer Kevin
