Anthony Mackie Quotes Shakespeare While Eating Spicy Wings | Hot Ones

ah give me a second sure oh my god hey what's going on everybody for first week feast i'm shawn evans and you're watching hot ones it's the show with hot questions and even hotter wings and today we're joined by anthony mackie you know him from films like the hurt locker captain america million dollar baby and many more his latest film outside the wire is currently trending on netflix and he also stars in one of the year's most anticipated new shows the falcon and the winter soldier which is set to release on disney plus march 19th anthony mackey welcome to the show what's up man thank you for having me i know that you grew up near the bayou how do you handle this spicy stuff i don't do well with spicy stuff at all anybody will tell you i like my food as bland as possible [Music] all right it's not bad it's kind of like ketchup i can live with that [Music] so i want to start by talking about falcon and the winter soldier and specifically this quote of yours from 2014 where you said the second and third leads are always the best characters what did you mean by that and what do you see as the opportunity to build or redefine the character of falcon in this series well the lead character is usually someone just to help push the exposition along push the story along he's the one that you ride with throughout the vehicle the best characters are always the third fourth lead because they're the ones who actually get it to get in and do the dirty work they're the ones that get to act so they're always the ones bouncing and controlling the lead actor and he's just bringing them along for the ride that's why when you watch the academy awards best supporting actor is always a more coveted category than best actor so with six hours of content you really get the opportunity to delve into not only the falcons backstory but the winter soldier's backstory like if you see with juan division after watching that show you have a much richer and deeper relationship with vision and wanda now and whereas before you know you would i would maybe have one maybe two nuggets per movie and but the movie was focused on the heavy hitters the ironmans the captain america so you know now i get more i get more play time so you get to learn more about me no that's actually good so new orleans has a lot of nicknames the big easy paris of the south but as an avid fisherman my guess is the one that rings truest to you is the sportsman's paradise when you think about all the fish that you've had to fight on the hook is there one that you would consider a prized catch oh definitely great question no one has ever asked me this before okay so while we were shooting in game and infinity war they had these huge lakes and ponds on their properties so in between takes i would go fishing i bought an outdoor grill for my trailer like fresh fish right there on set which some people had a problem with until they taste the fish then they understood my situation i watch a lot of these river monster shows that oftentimes feature the marshes or the swamps of louisiana what's like the weirdest thing that you've ever pulled out of the water actually when we were shooting abraham lincoln vampire hunter here in new orleans and they have these fish called alligator garfish it's like a pike but with the face of an alligator so one day i'm sitting out damn smoking a cigar i have a pa with me so i don't get in trouble so the pa is just sitting there talking to me like oh this is so much fun i can't believe we're on a movie all of a sudden the line starts to stretch out and there's a garfish about five feet long just munching on this fish so i take the lime i tie it to the bumper of the truck pulled the truck out from the water so it brought the fish out it was the biggest garfish i had ever seen it was bigger than this girl this girl was like five two and this fish was like five five so she freaked out gets on the radio oh my god we have oh my god oh my god somebody help us but it was just the ability to catch it and hold it so i have a picture of this garfish like laying across my chest in full costume when we were shooting abraham lincoln vampire hunter [Music] hmm i can live with that so you've amassed 70 plus tv and film credits over the course of your career which would speak to an appetite for exploring a variety of different characters and genres do you still to this day get stopped on the street by law order fans even though you've only been in one episode i i always say i'm most famous for eight mile in law and order i always know because you know a lot of people don't watch marvel movies whenever i go to the grocery store and you know all the older ladies know who i am i'm like law and order came on because they didn't watch captain america they watch them all in order from who they are i know where they recognize me from like you can guess which movie or which show they recognize you from what's the difference between an eight-mile fan and a marvel fan so a eight mile fan ironically enough is usually like a cool hip like middle-aged just down-to-earth real cool cat but marvel is usually either a middle-aged dude who's very grabby and touchy or a teenage kid who can't hold their [ __ ] like there's no in between it's like you know little girls giggle and run away little boys just stop and freak out and middle-aged dudes just always want to touch you and never leave you alone it's the weirdest [ __ ] ever it's the weirdest weird so i know that you're suspicious of people who take new orleans food and bar culture and then move them to cities like over here in new york where they don't really understand the roots so if you'll humor me i want to play a little game called who dat or not that where i give you a new orleans culinary export and you tell me if it has who dat status or if it's just straight a not that red flag does that sound good i like it i like it all right a seafood joint that serves year-round crawfish boils not death not that not that not that like we're right at the precipice of crawfish season right now so your crawfish is just now coming out the mud so if you got crawfish off season those are imported crawfish i'm not gonna stay where they from but you have mud bugs and you have scuttle butts those are scuttlebutts a new orleans themed bar where the bartender doesn't know how to make milk punch oh that's hard see i'll give them a pass on that because milk punch is very very local very very like in the grind if you have a new orleans themed bar and you know how to make a sazerac i'll forgive you on milk punch if you have a daiquiri machine if you serve dixie beer you know abita if you have a beater giacomo i'll give you that but milk punches i'll give you a pass on that but you got to have something to replace it a sandwich shop that serves po boys with cape cod chips no po boys should only be eaten with zaps that's the only thing and the crawtators are the best ones don't tell me the voodoos are the best ones it's not true it's the crawl tickets everybody take the crawl tape let me hit you with this phrase gluten free king cake no no no oh [ __ ] this is gonna hurt i went too far [Music] you called it you called it [Music] oh all right anthony we have a recurring segment on our show called explain that grammar we do a deep dive on our guest instagram pull interesting pictures that need more context so i'll show you the picture you just tell us the bigger story and we have a little workaround because your instagram currently has one picture anthony but we have a workaround which celebrity all-star game do you remember more fondly last summer's softball match or the nba all-star game from three years ago first of all i had a great great showing in cleveland at the all-star game for mlb i had three catches inside the park home run never struck out should have won the mvp i scored more runs than anybody but we're not going to talk about it i got to hang out with the big hurt it was amazing i grew up loving baseball the basketball all-star weekend it was all about master p and he took like 35 three-pointers and missed all of them i'm like what are we doing right like why are we oh we're just out here for cardio yeah so it was the the the parties were better at all-star weekend for basketball i had a better experience with mlb hanging out with ryan howard hitting home runs crushing it this looks like you're reigning here as the king of bacchus bacchus is one of the super parades and bacchus is known as the workmen's parade carpenters uh contractors mechanics like they're all members of bacchus because you don't have to be rich to be a member it started as a society of guys who work together as a crew my dad would take us down to the beginning of bacchus on napoleon and chapatulis and you have the knights the horsemen that ride before the parade in their full costumes on horseback southern university's marching band was right there so we got to ride like with like around in southern's marching band you know so we used to do that every year and it was always an amazing amazing experience for for mardi gras to be able to do that and you know new orleans has such unique culture and aesthetic they try to capture it in tv and film all the time even artists like drake or beyonce can you think of a tv show a film a music video that you think best distills new orleans there's this movie called angel heart it came out like in the early 80s late 90s a creepy movie with uh lisa lisa uh lisa bonet it captures new orleans culture and essence it was so new orleans it was creepy one of my favorite movies every time i watch it it freaks me out but i feel like it captures new orleans better than anything [Music] oh all right there we go [Music] that's gangster heavy flavor oh my god so with 22 movies under its belt now this collection of marvel series headed to disney plus the mcu it's ever expanding what do you see as the unique challenges of remaining true to these classic superhero stories while also then building and creating new stories well the problem is you know you every movie has to be bigger than the one before so every movie has to be more outrageous more extreme so i find it hard to capture the reality of the story or stay true to the comic book so it's i don't think the problem is the characters or the story i think it's just how do you evolve these movies to where you don't see the same thing over and over i always laugh because marvel loves to show like six suvs in a row going down the highway like every movie you know every movie has the six suv like uh like convoy you know going somewhere so it's like how do you take that six suv convoy and make it new and different every single movie i think that's the biggest challenge so this is the honey badger new orleans finest right there oh yeah [Music] ah it doesn't help that it has killer on it so some people watching this may be surprised to learn that you're actually a very skilled carpenter is it still a dream of yours to do a home improvement show it is it um i literally you still watch i used to watch hd i used to wat now my tongue is like i used to watch hgtv all the time still and i've always wanted to do like a cooking show and a home improvement show and a wellness show and put them all together just hdtv espn and food network that's all i watch yeah but i would love to do one that would be fun as hell can you describe in detail the last piece of furniture that you built so over covet i've been working in my backyard and um got some 2x4 metal studs cut them out party board and tiled and built a outdoor kitchen my brother-in-law was telling me about epoxy you pour it in and it hardens like glass but you can put objects in it and it'll float around the objects i want to figure out how to do epoxy countertops and you can put lights under them maybe some real pimp [ __ ] i'm sorry all of us out the window now i can't breathe [Music] oh it just looks like mud dude what eat that still going in though oh my gosh oh [Music] ah give me a second sure holy [ __ ] oh my god i'm coming oh my god i know i know be careful around the eyes too this is the part where i'll say be careful around the eyes you don't want right across pollination issue right all right i figured this out what do you got going over there i should have had bread but i didn't get bread so i figured corn chips would be the closest thing that's a new one to me how does it work out corn chips dog corn chips dog i'm back anthony mackie pro tip all right i have a million questions about eight mile but i'll keep them to my most pressing here so that we can move on down the gauntlet i know we're probably on borrowed time i guess overall the thing that i'm most curious about are the battle rap scenes are there juilliard techniques to draw on when it comes to ripping a mic on camera uh you know what's interesting i find myself very lucky to have studied shakespeare um when you look at shakespeare the way he wrote he wrote in verse so the idea of approaching a rapper from the perspective of an actor you're really just speaking in poems you know i've always said one of the greatest rappers to ever live was william shakespeare so it helped a lot as far as being able to understand the cadence the verse the meter and putting those words in rhyming couplets and into form i can't believe i got that out oh [ __ ] okay go ahead okay cool i'm i've got i'm i'm running i'm running now i'm running so these days you're one of the most recognizable film stars on the planet but i know that the foundation was set at juilliard which is widely regarded as one of the most prestigious drama schools in the world some trade schools are mandatory and then there are others that are almost looked down on like journalism for example there are a lot of people who think you're better off learning on the job than going to journalism school where does drama school fall on that spectrum for you [Laughter] [Music] um the uh there's nothing more import i've learned a lot um being on set uh in the business there's nothing more important to me than the training i got in drama school i'm a firm believer and to be is to study you would not go to a hospital and let somebody cut on you who didn't go to medical school you know if i didn't have my training i wouldn't be able to play tupac martin luther king papa doc and the falcon i would only be able to play tupac at every movie i would only be able to play martin luther king in every movie or the falcon in every movie i wouldn't be able to do those different range of characters so that training is just something that gives you an extra leg to stand on you know what i mean so once you have that background in that training nobody can take that from you dude that that hurt one more it's not fun either just being honest with you but you know what anthony some hosts they'd let you drown all the wings you know they wouldn't be they wouldn't be telling you where the minds are i appreciate it now i'm happy because my mouth and my nose and my lips are numb so i can't feel anything anyway here we go [Music] yo that's just straight peppa facts but you know what anthony mckee here we are at the epilogue of our spicy wing journey and you're an actor who's seen tremendous success with some of the biggest box office smashes of all time as well as admiration for your work on broadway so with that in mind i want to take things back to this 2010 quote that you gave to the juilliard journal i'd like to show everybody that not only can i do something like the hurt locker or notorious i can also do shakespeare is there a shakespearean soliloquy or a side that comes to mind when you think about your dinner date this evening with the wings of death oh my god thou nature art my goddess to thy law my services are bound wherefore should i stand in the plague of custom and permit off i can't it's a standing ovation from this side of this that was amazing and look at you anthony mackie taking on the wings of death and coming through victorious couple laps little sweat but it's all in a day's work and now there's nothing left to do but roll out the red carpet for you this camera probably just the camera you're looking at let the people know what you have going on in your life oh man synchronic is coming out movie theater let's go check it out go to the drive-in snuggle up close streaming it's a really fun movie outside the wires on netflix check it out number one in the world and in march we have falcon winter soldier to be a good time check it out oh great job anthony great job problem was it started off so nice and easy i thought it was going to continue to be nice and easy oh [Music] hey what's going on hot ones fans this is sean evans checking in to say thank you so much for watching today's episode if you enjoyed it maybe like it maybe you maybe throw us a subscribe even if you're feeling generous and as long as you keep watching [ __ ] it i'll keep eating

"The lead character is usually just someone to push the story along, the best characters are the third and fourth lead because they're the ones that get to act. " Man the answer to that first question is actually really interesting.

[u/Snoo-79038]

This is the only talk show I think I have ever enjoyed. That guy is a great interviewer even without the wings.

[u/[deleted]]

Lmao he roasts the marvel fans. How many of you are being too grabby with Anthony Mackie 🤔🤔

[u/rocker2014]

I love Hot Ones, can't wait to check this episode out later!

[u/Southern_Blue]

Huh. Sebastian and Anthony have both been in Law and Order. Sebastian was really young in his episode though, looks totally different than he does today.

[u/Gestalternative]

Can't wait!

I wonder if they'll have Elizabeth Olsen, Paul Bettany or Sebastian Stan as one of their next guests.

[u/nashcameronn]

lol funny how he said 8 Mile fans are chill and the Marvel fans are like these middle aged grabby dudes

[u/ChristBefallen]

Hell fucking yeah

[u/TheAnimatorPrime]

Can't wait! Personally find Sean Evans to be the best interviewer ever
