Michael Keaton's McDonald's biopic has a pretty ominous tagline...
Keaton stars as the man behind the fast food giant in The Founder — and it looks like it won't brush over the unsavoury bits of the company's history...
"He took someone else's idea and America ate it up" reads the tagline in the first poster for The Founder, the new biopic about the the history of McDonald's.
Michael Keaton plays Ray Kroc, a salesman who franchised out the burger chain owned by Mac and Dick McDonald in the 1950s.
