This Halloween season, Agatha Harkness returns 🔮Experience the two-episode premiere of Marvel Television’s #AgathaAllAlong September 18 only on @DisneyPlus....
It’s when Anthony Mackie is in something. He plays Anthony Mackie, guy who has all the power of Anthony Mackie.
He’s not a bad actor. He’s not a great actor. He delivers the lines he’s given. A good script makes you like him. A bad script makes you wonder how he keeps getting work.
Think about Sebastian Stan in Falcon and the Winter Soldier. Think of a line Stan delivered, or a scene he was in. Try to remember how his character felt in that moment. It can be any scene you think of, any line of dialogue.
Now think of Mackie. It’s the same show, the same writers, the same situations. Can you remember how his character was feeling from a facial expression? Do you remember connecting with the emotions behind the lines he was saying? Or was he just… there?
