Anthony Mackie Expands His Empire: From Captain America to Real Estate Power Player

Anthony Mackie isn’t just stepping into Captain America’s boots for the lead role of the renowned Marvel comic—he’s building an empire off-screen too.

As he gears up to lead “Captain America: Brave New World,” the Hollywood star is making power moves in real estate, curating an impressive portfolio spanning his hometown New Orleans to New York City.

The Property Portfolio

Mackie, 46, has long been part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but his new role as the franchise’s star places him at the center of Hollywood’s biggest stage. While he embraces the responsibilities of carrying the iconic shield, he continues to make strategic investments in real estate, reflecting his deep-rooted connection to New Orleans and an eye for long-term stability.

Mackie grew up in New Orleans before attending The Juilliard School in New York City. In 2008, he returned to his hometown, purchasing a property on a half-acre lot. Though the purchase price remains undisclosed, Realtor.com estimates its current value at $783,995. The move allowed him to escape the pressures of Hollywood, offering what he has described as “confidence” and “peace of mind.”

His real estate holdings extend beyond just one home. Mackie owns at least two additional properties in New Orleans, purchased through an LLC. One of these homes, built in 2017, features three bedrooms and two bathrooms and is currently valued at $377,000. His other New Orleans property spans 3,600 square feet, further cementing his investment in the city’s housing market.

Despite his deep roots in New Orleans, Mackie has maintained a presence in New York. He owns a three-bedroom, three-bathroom apartment in Brooklyn, which he purchased in 2006 for $370,000. The condo was briefly listed for sale in 2017 for $900,000 before being pulled off the market. In 2022, it was made available for rent at $4,795 per month, though the listing was later removed.

Beyond residential real estate, Mackie has set his sights on larger-scale projects. In 2022, he acquired 20 acres of land in New Orleans East with plans to build East Studios LLC, a full-service film production studio. The development is expected to bolster the state’s film industry and provide opportunities for local talent. The site is believed to be near the intersection of Interstate 10 Service Road and Read Boulevard, close to the Little Woods neighborhood.

Mackie’s real estate ventures are an extension of his broader commitment to his hometown. He previously operated NoBar, a Brooklyn-based bar, from 2011 to 2015. And in 2022, he helped rebuild roofs in New Orleans following Hurricane Ida, drawing on skills he learned from his father, who was a roofer.
