Anthony Mackie Says Captain America Shouldn’t Represent ‘America’

To delight U.S. cinema-lovers, Anthony Mackie, during his visit to Rome for promotional purposes, shares that Captain America is not exclusively about America.

Mackie takes on the role of Sam Wilson, starring in “Disney and Marvel’s Captain America: Brave New World”, assuming the title character position previously held by Chris Evans as Steve Rogers.

Mackie suggests that instead of embodying America, Captain America should uphold principles such as honor, decency, and honesty. This implies that Mackie may view these values as intrinsic to the character of Captain America, rather than necessarily linked to the nation itself. It does not necessarily mean he believes America doesn’t represent honor, dignity, and integrity; instead, it could be a commentary on the distinction between the ideals embodied by Captain America and the complexities of the country he represents.

What does Anthony Mackie say?

Via Instagram, video has surfaced from Mackie in Rome who says the following:

I deeply admire Captain America not as an embodiment of the nation, but as a symbol of unwavering loyalty, honor, and moral fortitude. He stands for trustworthiness and reliability, embodying values that transcend geographical boundaries.
