Avengers star Anthony Mackie had something VERY good to say about Irish girls

We'll take that!

We’ll take that compliment thanks, Anthony.

Anthony Mackie was in London promoting his new movie, Captain America: The Winter Soldier, where he stars as superhero Sam Wilson/Falcon.

He was speaking to RTÉ Ten when he paid the ultimate compliment to all us Irish girls. He spoke about a recent holiday to Dublin and how he’d love to come here to film.

“I would love to shoot in Dublin. I had so much fun. I went to a crewing [rowing] race by Trinity! It was a lot of fun, man. I went to a rugby game. Good times. I took the bus. I was a local.

“I went to the Guinness distillery… I had a Guinness, it takes you, like, 15 minutes to get a Guinness!”

And then he added the most important line:

“And the women are beautiful, I mean, they stop traffic!”


Stop, we’re blushing!
