Captain America: Brave New World gets a new McDonald's promotional advert, offering a first look at Danny Ramirez as the Falcon.
X/Twitter user @UpToTASK shared a photo of McDonald's Captain America: Brave New World tie-in poster, showing Ramirez suited and booted as the MCU's new Falcon. He is pictured wearing a predominantly green suit to match his comic book counterpart, along with a helmet and the character's mechanical wings.

Ramirez first starred as Joaquín Torres in the Disney+ series The Falcon and the Winter Soldier alongside Anthony Mackie and Sebastian Stan. However, the upcoming Captain America movie will see him take on the mantle of Falcon after Mackie's Sam Wilson gifted him his busted wings in the show's penultimate episode.
The MCU's new Falcon also showed up in a McDonald's toy ad from Brazil, which featured several characters in minifigure form, including two versions of Captain America and an unexpected appearance from Thaddeus Ross' alter ego, Red Hulk, suggesting Harrison Ford's character will transform into a super-strong CG monster.
Kevin Feige and Anthony Mackie debuted the first footage from Captain America: Brave New World at CinemaCon 2024, but plot details are still largely under wraps. However, it looks like the story will, at least in part, see Falcon and the movie's titular Star-Spangled Avenger take on the general-turned-president-turned-Hulk.
Captain America: Brave New World will arrive in theaters on February 14, 2025, as part of the next wave of MCU movies after Deadpool & Wolverine.
