‘The Falcon and the Winter Soldier’ star Anthony Mackie is Marvel’s next Captain America

Mackie’s passion for the performing arts goes back to high school, where he studied drama through the New Orleans Center for Creative Arts and the North Carolina School of the Arts. The New Orleans native graduated from The Juilliard School’s Drama Division in 2001 and became a theater understudy for his Marvel co-star Don Cheadle.

Mackie then appeared in several critically acclaimed films, including 8 Mile, The Manchurian Candidate, and Million Dollar Baby. In 2009, he picked up numerous accolades for his role in the Academy Award-winning movie, The Hurt Locker

The actor made his Marvel Cinematic Universe debut in 2014 as Sam Wilson, aka the Falcon, in Captain America: The Winter Soldier. He reprised the role for several projects, including Avengers: Endgame in 2019. After Chris Evans’ exit from the franchise, Mackie will be the MCU’s next Captain America

Sebastian Stan started his career around the same time as his ‘The Falcon and the Winter Soldier’ co-star

Born in Romania, Stan moved to New York when he was around 12-years-old. He took part in theater productions in high school and went on to study drama at Rutgers University’s Mason Gross School of the Arts and the Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre in London. 

After appearing in films like Tony n’ Tina’s Wedding and The Covenant, Stan landed the recurring role of Carter Baizen in Gossip Girl. He starred in the cult comedy Hot Tub Time Machine and the Oscar-winning film Black Swan. And in 2011, he made his MCU debut as Bucky Barnes in Captain America: The First Avenger.

Stan reprised the role for five Marvel movies, including Captain America: The Winter Soldier. His new series with Mackie, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, premiered on Disney+ on March 19. 

So who has a higher net worth, Anthony Mackie or Sebastian Stan?

Mackie and Stan have been acting for over nearly two decades. And despite being two of the biggest movie/TV stars in the world,  their net worth is not as high as fans might think.

According to Celebrity Net Worth, Stan’s current net worth stands at $4 million. Mackie’s is double that, at $8 million.
