Anthony Mackie has been making bold claims about Captain America: Civil War , with Falcon stating – in no uncertain terms – that it will be the best Marvel movie yet.

While talking to the star about new thriller Triple 9, we asked how this Captain America movie will differ to previous instalments.“It’ll be very different because… I feel the best Marvel movies thus far have been Winter Soldier and Iron Man” he explained. “And I think this movie far surpasses those two movies. I think the Russo brothers and Marvel have done a very good job with upping the ante every movie. And this one definitely does not fail to live up to that.”As for what it’s like to be part of a new Avengers team, Mackie was somewhat less serious.“It’s dope man – I get to hang out with Robert Downey Jr. I love it. I love it. I get to eat lunch with him. And talk to him. And crack jokes with him. And he gives me his old clothes so it’s awesome.”Captain America: Civil War hits screens in April, while Triple 9 is released in the UK on Friday.
