Anthony Mackie and Scoot McNairy Join 'Our Brand is Crisis'

It can be time consuming getting involved in the superhero universes of Marvel and DC, but Anthony Mackie and Scoot McNairy have found a way to work in other projects, too. Mackie, who was last seen in Captain America: The Winter Soldier, has a role in John Hillcoat's Triple Nine and Jonathan Levine's untitled Christmas comedy with Seth Rogen and Joseph Gordon-Levitt. McNairy, who has a mystery role in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, recently starred in Frank and leads AMC series Halt and Catch Fire. Now both actors have found time to join Sandra Bullock in George Clooney's political dramedy, Our Brand is Crisis.

George Clooney and Grant Heslov are producing the film with David Gordon Green at the helm of the narrative feature based on Rachel Boynton's documentary about the role American political consultants played in the 2002 Bolivian presidential election. They join Sandra Bullock in the Peter Straughan-penned film, while Billy Bob Thornton's is also in talks for a role.

Mackie is expected to return as Falcon in Avengers: Age of Ultron, while McNairy will be seen in Gone Girl opposite Ben Affleck.
