00:00You got to throw it in, like that.
00:08What's up GQ?
00:09Anthony Mackie, these are my essentials.
00:17My most important essential is my trusty iPhone 6 Plus.
00:21Everything since the 6 Plus has been a disaster,
00:24so I will always have this phone.
00:26I don't update, I don't do anything to it,
00:28it always works.
00:29Crack screen, I don't care.
00:31Take a little bit of packing tape,
00:33put over it, and start over.
00:35What is it specifically about the 6 Plus?
00:37Well, the 6 Plus is great
00:38because it was the first one that was the big phone,
00:41so it was obnoxiously bigger than all the other phones,
00:45so it has a lot of programming and data on it,
00:47and I had the big one,
00:48like the 64 megajigawatts or whatever it was,
00:52and I put all this music on it,
00:54so I have stuff that I can't find anywhere else,
00:58you know, like Bush Babies.
01:00I got Gravity on there.
01:01Camp Lowe, first album on there.
01:03You can't find that stuff on music streaming websites now.
01:08It's mine.
01:10Look, come on, man.
01:12Bust a rhyme, extinction level event.
01:14You can't, I got stuff on here you cannot find,
01:17and it's quite a nice case.
01:19It's like snakeskin,
01:21but it's leather.
01:22I am an avid golf player.
01:28I play golf often, about two to three times a week.
01:31This is my trusty four iron.
01:34It's a great club, forged.
01:35Gives you an extra little pop, little distance.
01:37I love this club because if it's a par five,
01:40I can make the green in two,
01:42because this is about my 225, 230 club.
01:45If you're 300 off the tee, you go home.
01:48You either want to lay up or go for it.
01:50And when I feel real arrogant is when I play golf.
01:53I go for it all the time.
01:55Would you say that you were the best golfer
01:57of all the others?
01:58No.
01:59It's a toss up between Don Cheadle and Sam Jackson.
02:04Now, I'm not gonna say what the two of them have in common,
02:07other than being old black dudes and rich,
02:09but both of them are very good golfers.
02:12So that's how you know they rich.
02:14I'm like somewhat not poor.
02:15So they're better golfers than me.
02:23You got to throw it in like that.
02:30My next essential is the oil eliminator Kiehl's moisturizer.
02:34Cause my T-zone tends to get oily.
02:38So I have to eliminate the oil
02:39with my trusty Kiehl's oil eliminator.
02:42Growing up a little kid in New Orleans,
02:44you just use like Juergens.
02:46And you went from the top of your head
02:48to the bottom of your feet.
02:49And that was your moisturizer game.
02:52But once you get older and like you start going to college
02:55and you get a girlfriend and they teach you like shampoo
02:58and conditioner is different than soap.
03:01Like you can't take the Dove and just go Dove, Dove, Dove,
03:03Dove, Dove.
03:04You have to go Dove, shampoo, conditioner, facial wash.
03:08It's four different things just to wash one person.
03:11So you can't go Kiehl's, Kiehl's, Kiehl's, Kiehl's.
03:14You have to go oil eliminator Kiehl's.
03:16Then you have to go body Kiehl's.
03:18So they have many different products
03:19for many different things to serve you
03:21in many different ways.
03:25That's word up.
03:26These are my trusty SoulCycle shorts.
03:35Yes, it's true.
03:36I like to listen to rhythmic music and lift weights
03:38while I ride bikes for long distances against young women.
03:42Yes.
03:43We're shooting Falcon Winter Soldier now in Atlanta.
03:47So you have a lot of different cycling places.
03:50So you have the cycling places in Buckhead
03:53where you have like a lot of young women with ponytails
03:55that are scream and very angry on their bikes.
03:59Or you can go to the cycling place in Decatur
04:04where there are a lot of young, angry people
04:07who yell and twerk on bikes.
04:10Or you can go to Midtown
04:12where it's just a bunch of nice people that ride bikes.
04:16No one's yelling.
04:18No one's throwing stuff.
04:20Everyone's sweating.
04:21I started smoking cigars.
04:25I would say it was 2005.
04:29I had just finished a movie and I was starting to play golf.
04:33And to look cool, somebody gave me a cigar.
04:36And I actually really liked it.
04:37And then I bought my first cigar, smoked that.
04:42Then I went to Cuba.
04:43I mean, I didn't, I mean, I went, but I didn't go.
04:48Like they can't, the federal government can't get me for that.
04:51Right? Good.
04:52So I went to Cuba and I had some hand rolled cigars.
04:55Then I went to Nicaragua, had some cigars.
04:57Then the Dominican Republic had some cigars there.
05:00And I started learning the different characteristics
05:03of the different regions.
05:04So then I just fell in love with them.
05:06Which region has it been?
05:08Nicaragua, it's the Pacific.
05:11So you have milder temperatures.
05:14You have more wind off the Pacific.
05:17You have mountain ranges.
05:19So when the air mixes just right, you get a heartier leaf.
05:23You get thicker veins.
05:24So you get less of a earthy or harsh taste
05:27like on the East coast,
05:28but you get more of a mild caramel smoothness
05:32on the West coast.
05:34Nicaragua.
05:35Yes.
05:38You're a huge New Orleans Saints fan.
05:40Yes.
05:41Charler, you'd be also a big fan of the New Orleans Saints.
05:43Did you just pat him on the head?
05:46You just pat?
05:47Yes.
05:48Growing up in New Orleans, it's like Saints or nothing.
05:51I always go to the games.
05:53Michael Thomas, greatest wide receiver in the league right now,
05:56shutting it down, strong arms steady.
05:58That's what we do.
05:59A man went to Florida, came back with 15 more pounds of muscle.
06:03Nasty.
06:04Come on, man.
06:05Come on, you can't mess with it.
06:07You can't, Kamara coming out the backfield.
06:10You can't mess with it.
06:11This is going to be our year.
06:12The last two years have been shaky, you know?
06:16So we have, we put out petitions for the referees
06:19to spend some time in New Orleans on vacation for free,
06:22but it's going to be a good season.
06:24I think we need one more piece.
06:26We need like a, you know, like a Brandon Cooks.
06:28We need somebody to take the top off.
06:30We get somebody to take the top off.
06:31We back up to 45 points a game.
06:33Off top.
06:34All time.
06:39Zimmers is a neighborhood place in Gentilly, the 7th Ward.
06:44I grew up three blocks from there, and I've been going there since I was three years old.
06:50It's a neighborhood place.
06:51They catch fresh seafood every morning.
06:53They come and they make fresh sandwiches with the seafood.
06:56So what you do is get you a half shrimp po' boy dressed with pickles.
07:02No cheese.
07:03Dash of hot sauce.
07:05Get you one turkey neck.
07:07Get you one.
07:08We have this thing called the Delaware Punch.
07:10It's selling nowhere else on the world.
07:12It's not from Delaware.
07:13I went to Delaware to see.
07:14It's not Del.
07:15It's Delaware Punch.
07:16Get that.
07:17Go to the lakefront.
07:18Put your tailgate down.
07:19Sit in the back of your truck and live your best life.
07:23I do that once a week.
07:25I might substitute the Delaware Punch with a house daiquiri.
07:28It all depends on what the day looked like.
07:34I'm an avid admirer of art.
07:37I feel like, you know, if you go through the annals of history, every moment in time is kind of outlined by the art that's created.
07:44So I love going to museums.
07:46It's the clearest form of expression.
07:49It can be daunting.
07:50It can be riveting.
07:51Or it can be something that's so simple that it informs everything around you.
07:55Like every time I create a character for a movie, I pick a song and I pick a piece of art that kind of represents the social makeup of that character.
08:03So I tend to go to museums often.
08:06And aquariums.
08:07You like aquariums?
08:08The three best aquariums in America.
08:11San Diego, Atlanta, and New Orleans.
08:14Hands down.
08:15Hands down.
08:20Y'all, hold it down.
08:22Hold it down.
08:23My man keep the waves fresh all day.
08:25Cause I got like five different grains of hair on my head.
08:28So my man Tariq has got my cut down to a science.
08:33Literally, if I'm within a one hour flight of Atlanta, I will fly to Atlanta for my dude to cut my hair.
08:40My man Tariq holds it down.
08:42It's been how long it's been through your hair?
08:44Shhh.
08:45How long?
08:46Cutting my hair, sir.
08:48I don't get my hair done.
08:50Um.
08:51It's been.
08:52Um.
08:53Man, I've been with Tariq for like 12, 13 years now.
08:57You didn't trust anyone else?
08:59Nah.
09:00In the face fresh.
09:01Always.
09:02On deck.
09:03Hi, I'm Anthony Mackie.
09:05Thanks guys for checking out my essentials.
09:07I'll see you at Zimmers, shrimp poboi, dressed, extra pickles, dash of hot sauce.
