Check out video below featuring Jacob Tremblay and Anthony Mackie at the Spririt Awards where it seems the 7-year-old star of Room can’t realize the difference between Mackie and his fictitious Marvel counterpart Falcon.
“It’s an honor to be here celebrating the best independent cinema, but an even greater honor to be standing here beside my all-time favorite hero,” Tremblay said.
Mackie replied back “we’re having a Santa Claus issue” with the two continuing to joke about Falcon.
Anthony Mackie is set to return as Falcon for May’s Captain America: Civil War.

The new status quo fractures the Avengers while they try to protect the world from a new and nefarious villain.
