Hollywood actor Anthony Mackie received backlash after claiming the Captain America character he plays in Marvel’s forthcoming movie Captain America: Brave New World does not represent “America.”
Speaking at an event in Rome, Italy, on Monday, Mackie gave his thoughts on the character he was taking over from actor Chris Evans’ previous iteration.
“For me, Captain America represents a lot of different things and I don’t think the term, you know, ‘America’ should be one of those representations,” Mackie said.

“It’s about a man who keeps his word, who has honor, dignity and integrity,” he added. “Someone who is trustworthy and dependable.”
The actor was raked over the coals on social media over his asinine take, with many saying they’d now forgo the film due to Mackie’s stance.
Well that’s sure to sit well with your American audience

This movie is going to bomb so hard.

Do you idiots think leftists are going to come out to watch a Captain America movie?
You just gave the middle finger to the only people that actually would watch this movie. No republican is going to pay to watch this now.
Strange take. Captain America literally has America in the name and represents American values of freedom, justice, and standing up for what's right. Why try to separate that? The character's whole origin is tied to WW2 America.

Elsewhere during the discussion, Mackie went on to claim it was important to portray a black Captain America for black kids, before saying “it wasn’t about race,” and “it’s very important for kids of all races to be able to watch something and have someone to look up to no matter what they look like.”
Do the woke filmmakers at Disney/Marvel not understand the era of leftist garbage is over?
With any luck President Donald Trump’s ambassadors to Hollywood, Jon Voight, Mel Gibson, and Sylvester Stallone, will help the film industry get back on track.
