Here's Why Sebastian Stan Couldn't Make It To The 2021 MTV Movie And TV Awards

As soon as Anthony Mackie got to the microphone at the 2021 MTV Movie and TV Awards, he started praising Sebastian Stan and addressed his absence. "Sebastian couldn't be here because he's off being a rockstar. If you haven't seen the pictures of him on Instagram, he's truly a rockstar," he explained. The pictures he referred to are two that Stan shared on his Instagram account showing his head-turning transformation into Mötley Crüe drummer Tommy Lee. One photo also showed him posing with Lily James, who is playing actor Pamela Anderson alongside Stan in the upcoming biographical drama "Pam & Tommy."

Once Mackie cleared up Stan's absence, he gushed over his co-star and friend, and even poked fun at him. "It's really amazing because he's one of my dear friends and the two of us really enjoyed doing this show. We had a great time. We jogged together. We ate a lot of protein together. We laughed at each other," he recalled. He continued, "He locked himself in his room and I banged on the door and finally stole all of his luggage so he had to come out of his room to get clean clothing, but it was a great time."

Mackie then thanked his fans before concluding his speech with a shout out to Elizabeth Olsen and Tom Holland. "I'm so happy and I appreciate so much the fact that you guys love the show so much. There's more to come," he teased.
