While speaking to Empire, Anthony Mackie – who plays Steve’s friend Sam Wilson a.k.a. The Falcon – explained the film’s genre inspiration, “I would say this one is more of a true suspense thriller.” The Civil War actor further spoke about how the film will balance its massive cast and action fight sequences with a grounded and believable storyline:
“The build-up to the fight is what makes it so interesting because there are so many different factions of who’s right and who’s wrong and who supports who. Once we get all of that out the way, then it becomes more action-packed and more of us kicking each others’ ass. … If it’s a civil war, you have to establish why there’s a war. You can’t just start fighting and expect people to appreciate it.”
