"Let me be a crucial part of the MCU, please": TommyInnit reacts as Anthony Mackie reveals that his kids watch Minecraft

TommyInnit and Anthony Mackie? For a Minecraft fan, anything's possible.

Mackie, aka the new Captain America, sent Minecraft fans across the globe into a collective frenzy after revealing that his kids watch the game and a "British dude," whom many believe is none other than Thomas "TommyInnit" Simons.

In a recent interview with People, the Marvel star revealed how his children haven't been as impressed with his role as Falcon as they were when he made a small appearance on Sesame Street.

However, what ended up attracting the attention of Minecraft fans globally was the following revelation. He stated that his kids might be more interested in his job if it involved playing video games online, just like their favorite Twitch streamers:

"I can't remember his name, but there's this British dude who sits online and plays Minecraft, and all these kids watch him. This dude is like Michael Jackson in my house, to my boys."

The statement sparked a meltdown online, as fans flocked to Twitter to decipher which "British dude" the 42-year-old could be referring to.
