Like looking in a mirror, David Harbour met his “Thunderbolts*” character in a visit to Avengers Campus at Disney California Adventure.

David Harbour Meets Red Guardian

Two men pose outside Avengers Campus; one wears a red jacket, the other is dressed as Red Guardian.

In a post on Instagram, Disney Parks gave guests a look at David Harbour meeting his character who began roaming in Avengers Campus today, May 2. In the post, Disney urges followers to meet Red Guardian at Disney California and to see “Thunderbolts*,” now in theaters.

Disney Parks also shared a video of the pair’s interaction. Watch it here:

Five people pose by a modern building; one channels Red Guardian from Avengers Campus, while others wear Marvel costumes.

In the video, Harbour seems to be walking around nervously as he interacts with Captain Marvel, Captain American, and Spiderman prior to running into Red Guardian. The pair scream “yeeaahhh” in unison before sharing an embrace. The actor also posed for a picture with the Avengers crew seen in the clip.

David Harbour portrays Red Guardian in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. He first appeared in “Black Widow” (2021) and returns for “Thunderbolts*” as part of a team of misfit Marvel “heroes” including one of his adoptive daughters, Yelena Belova (Florence Pugh). The cast also includes Sebastian Stan as Bucky Barnes, Wyatt Russell as John Walker / U.S. Agent, Olga Kurylenko as Antonia Dreykov / Taskmaster, Hannah John-Kamen as Ava Starr / Ghost, Lewis Pullman as Bob, and Julia Louis-Dreyfus as Valentina Allegra de Fontaine.

On his debut day, we encountered Red Guardian as he roamed around Avengers Campus interacting and taking photos with guests. A formal line was not formed and Cast Members asked guest to only grab quick selfies and autographs.

This character interaction is for a limited time only. However, Disney has not released an official timeline.

Check out our experience with Red Guardian in the video below:

“Thunderbolts*” is the last film of Phase Five of the MCU and the 36th film overall. It’s directed by Jake Schreier from a screenplay by Eric Pearson and Joanna Calo.
