The actor, 46, portrays the superhero Sam Wilson, aka Falcon, who stepped into the role of Captain America in Marvel's Cinematic Universe. He made his Marvel debut in 2014's Captain America: The Winter Soldier and has since starred in the series The Falcon and the Winter Soldier and the film Captain America: Brave New World.

On Tonight, Mackie did not specify which project, but recalled how "they brought out a construction crane six stories in the air" for his stunt.

He was picked up in a harness and instructed to flip as he fell, but instead he screamed and was replaced by a stuntman.

"They go, 'Cut, alright let's get the stuntman. I don't think we need another take of this," he said.

He confirmed that Avengers: Doomsday is in production. The film will arrive in theaters Dec. 18, 2026.

"We are in the mix of shooting, yes," he told Fallon.

The Twisted Metal actor also discussed his Emmy nominations for his roles in The Studio and Shark Beach with Anthony Mackie.
