Stan can currently be heard voicing Bucky in the first episode of What If...?, which premiered on Disney+ this week. Mackie is not one of the many Marvel stars on the What If...? cast list, but it's currently unclear if someone else is voicing Sam Wilson or if he's just not a part of the series. However, Mackie will return in a live-action capacity now that Captain America 4 was announced after the finale of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. During a previous interview with EW, Mackie revealed that he found out about Captain America 4 from a grocery store clerk.
"I literally found out yesterday in a grocery store. The checkout guy named Dwayne, a cool cat, he's like, 'Yo, man. Is this real?!" [holds up a cellphone] "I'm like, 'I haven't heard anything.' That's what I love about working for Marvel. They call you, they're like, 'Come to L.A. We wanna tell you what's going on.' So, I'm excited to see what happens, but I haven't heard anything."
