He is also charged with possessing offensive weapons, described in court as two large kitchen knives.
Aidan Mann, a 28-year-old tattoo artist, was attacked on Church Street in Downpatrick on Monday.
He was given treatment by paramedics but died at the scene.
A PSNI detective inspector told the court he can connect the defendant to the charges.
Donnelly spoke only to confirm he understood the charges.
A defence solicitor made no application for bail and told the court her client had made admissions in interviews and expressed remorse.
Donnelly was remanded in custody.
