Actor Anthony Mackie - famous for his role as superhero Falcon - revealed that all Marvel filmmakers are white, except for the movie 'Black Panther'.
In an interview with Variety, Anthony Mackie said: "I am really upset to find that, out of the seven Marvel movies I've played, the entire producers, directors, stunts, designers costumes, PA … are all white ".

Anthony said that when Marvel made Black Panther - a blockbuster about black superheroes, they hired a whole bunch of black people. The actor feels weird about this: "We have black producers, black directors, black costume designers … And I think, it's more racist than anything else. Because if they only hire black people to make films about black people, they think that black people are not good enough to make films about white people? ".
The 41-year-old actor hopes Marvel would change theirs perspective in the future, hire the right person for the job rather than choose because of skin color or gender.
