Chris Evans accidentally ruined the ending of Avengers: Endgame for Anthony Mackie

November 5, 2019 by Liam Waddington

In a recent interview with Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show, Captain America himself Chris Evans revealed a scenario where he ruined the ending of Avengers: Endgame regarding how his character was getting a send-off in the Marvel Cinematic Universe for The Falcon actor Anthony Mackie.

“While we were filming in Atlanta, I had a few people over to watch football or something, and Mackie was the first one to show up,” Evans said. “I didn’t know he didn’t know what was going to happen. I say, ‘Hey, man, isn’t that scene fantastic?’ and he said, ‘What scene?’ And I said, ‘The scene where I give you the shield!’ And he said, ‘You’re giving me the shield? And I said ‘Oh no.'”

He added, “So I ran to my room and I got the scene and gave it to him, and I got to watch him read the scene for the first time where he’s getting the shield,” Evans continued. “And he was so happy and you immediately feel like, ‘Man, maybe I robbed this moment, maybe [Marvel Studios president] Kevin Feige deserved this.’ But it was so nice to share it with him. He was so happy and so deserving. It was a nice way to have — just between us — the transition of characters.”

Although this is seemingly goodbye from Evans and the iconic shield has been passed on, Mackie has previously claimed he will remain The Falcon when he stars in the Disney+ series, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, in 2020.
