Toy licenses have been the bane of comic book movie surprises for decades now, going all the way back to Dick Tracy with the Blank being revealed to being Madonna’s Breathless Mahoney and Batman’s Phantasm as former flame Andrea Beaumont. It looks like Captain America: New World Order got a possibly huge spoiler revealed with McDonald’s toys.
Potential Spoilers below! If you don’t want to be spoiled on the plot of Captain America: Brave New World, consider yourself warned!
An Instagram user posted the Happy Meal toys on the back of a Brazilian ad that shows off several character designs from Captain America: Brave New World including a member of the Serpent Society “Cascavel” which translates to Rattlesnake. This could make her a stand-in for Rattler. However, the big surprise comes with the reveal of a Red Hulk toy.
This adds to the rumor of Red Hulk’s arrival since a Lego set was teased a few months ago, also leaked on Reddit.
Harrison Ford assumed the role of General “Thunderbolt” Ross after William Hurt passed away in 2022. In the comics, Ross used radiation siphoned from the Hulk, Leader, and M.O.D.O.K. to transform into the Red Hulk, eventually becoming a member of the Thunderbolts and even the Avengers for a brief time. It had been rumored that we would eventually get the Red Hulk, but with the Leader (Tim Blake Nelson) being a part of Captain American: Brave New World, things lined up perfectly for this crimson cameo.
We still have almost a year before the movie’s premiere next February but with San Diego Comic-Con around the corner, we should get confirmation sooner than later.
Captain America: Brave New World is set to release on February 14, 2025.
