Fans now have everything they need to know about the popcorn bucket options available for Marvel Studios' Captain America: Brave New World.
Captain America 4 marks Marvel Studios' first big-screen film since 2024's Deadpool & Wolverine, which came with its own wild set of popcorn buckets. While this new film may not have the hilarity and irreverent characters that Deadpool's first MCU movie did, it still has plenty of material to make for great merchandise.
Anthony Mackie will embark on his first solo film as Captain America, which pits him against wild villains like the Leader and the newly-evolved Red Hulk. On top of the story, Marvel Studios' first 2025 movie will also be a golden opportunity for the studio to offer fans exciting new collectible items from the red brand as well.
Captain America 4: Where to Buy AMC's Popcorn Bucket
AMC Theatres shared purchase information for its officially licensed popcorn buckets and merchandise paying tribute to Marvel Studios' Captain America: Brave New World ahead of its Valentine's Day release date.
AMC will offer a massive 300 oz. tin, which is collapsible for easy transport and packing. The bottom of it is adorned with a large replica of the Captain America shield, which has been a staple in MCU storytelling since its introduction in 2011's Captain America: The First Avenger.
The collapsible portion of the bucket boasts the star seen on the chest plate from Sam Wilson's new blue Captain America costume.
Along with the popcorn tub, AMC is offering a large collectible drink cup called the Armor Cup, which is adorned with the same stars-and-stripes design seen on the Captain America suit.
As if the bucket and cup were not enough, AMC will also run a limited promotion for a snack called Firecracker Crunch Gourmet Popcorn. This snack is said to be coated with white fudge and popping rock candy showing off the classic Captain America red, white, and blue colors.
AMC shared the following message to promote its new Captain America: Brave New World merchandise:

And be sure to check out our limited time All-American and exclusive gourmet popcorn variety, Firecracker Crunch. It’s a white fudge covered popcorn with red and blue popping candy.
