A new rumour suggests Danny Ramirez's Joaquin Torres will suit up as the Marvel Cinematic Universe's Falcon in Captain America: New World Order, but how much will he differ from his comic book counterpart?

This won't be the first time you've heard this rumour, but a reliable insider is claiming Danny Ramirez will indeed suit up as the MCU's new Falcon in Captain America: New World Order

We first met the character in The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, but despite clearly being one of Sam Wilson's closest allies, he was pretty much a non-factor in the series. Fans suspected his introduction might be a way of laying the groundwork for something bigger down the line, and the hero suiting up in the next Captain America movie makes sense. 

However, it will be very interesting to see how Marvel Studios handles that. 

In the comic books, Joaquin was a Mexican immigrant who cared for undocumented migrants crossing the border into America. That led to him being targeted by the Sons of the Serpent, with the villainous Malus then experimenting on the teen to create more than a mere costumed Falcon. 

When his DNA was spliced with Sam's psychic falcon, Redwing, Joaquin grew wings and talons and gained bird-like senses along with various other superpowers. 

On the one hand, it seems likely Marvel Studios will give Ramirez's character a costume and have him join Sam in battle as the new Falcon. On the other, with The Leader set to make his return in Captain America: New World Order, can we discount the possibility that he'll conduct experiments on Joaquin to create a very different Falcon for the MCU?

We'll see what happens, but this is shaping up to be a jam-packed movie and one that could set the stage for all manner of spin-offs. 

Captain America: New World Order is set to be released in theaters on May 3, 2024.
