Anthony Mackie may have some of the most expensive furniture from the Marvel set in his home. The actor plays the role of the beloved character Sam Wilson in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. After making his debut in Captain America: The Winter Soldier, the actor has reprised his role in several other films and will return in Avengers: Doomsday.

He rose to global fame with his role. Now, apart from memories, the actor also took home some rare furniture from the set of one of his previous Marvel films.

Anthony Mackie stole furniture from Marvel set

Anthony Mackie recently joined Josh Hororwitz for Happy Sad Confused alongside Jamie Dornan to talk about their new heist series, 12 12 12. And amid the conversation, the actors were asked if they had their own little heist on any of the sets they worked on. Mackie shared that he never steals anything from the set, and that remained the case until he spotted some teak outdoor furniture on a Marvel set.

"I drive a F250, dog. I pulled up on a Saturday. I talked to the teamsters. 100 for you. 100 for you. Once we cleared out that scene, s*** Yo, I strapped that," he said.

Now, for those wondering about why these furniture pieces were precious, teak trees have a slow growth cycle. And it takes decades for these to grow into a good quality to turn them into furnitures. He further told Horowitz during the interview that he still has the furniture in his house.

Now, that might not be the only thing that he picked up from the set of the film he worked in. Back in 2024, the actor shared a picture of him wearing a red Christmas sweater with a Santa Claus on it and, in the caption, admitted that he picked it up from the set. His followers were quickly able to recognize the sweater from Mackie’s film, The Night Before.

Anything that lies around the set of Harry Potter is quite precious, and Daniel Radcliffe was fortunate enough to pick something rare.

He also tried to take the golden dragon egg from Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire but failed in his mission. Emma Watson told Time for Kids that she was able to pick many items from the movie sets to remember her role as Hermione. And with that, the list of actors who took things from the set as memories is quite long.
