There’s a rumor going around that the title of Captain America: New World Order will be changed prior to release. The movie which is filing now was announced with the title as you read. However, whilst this isn’t hot, hot news from multiple insiders, there is one who is doubling down on this claim.
Leaker Can We Get Some Toast posted on April 1st that New World Order would change to World War Hulk. Everyone assumed an April Fool’s joke due to all the Hulk characters showing up in the movie. Yet now we are well beyond April CWGST is doubling down on claiming the movie’s title will change before release. Add to that that CWGST said they posted 2 truths and 1 lie for April Fool’s and indicated his Cap claim was one of the real claims he made.
Check out what the insider had to say on social media.

I will say though CWGST has got plenty of leaks correct so far, I would not say they have the best hit rate out there. Ergo, for now, I suggest treated this rumor with a hefty dose of salt. It would be extremely strange for Marvel to announce a title for the movie and then change it during filming. From the outside looking in I cannot see the benefit. Unless some kind of focus groups have said they don’t like the NWO title. I guess it could have anti-Semitic connotations, but not in the way it would be used in the movie.

For now, I’d say just file this one at the back of your mind until either some trades get on this story, or other insiders with better hit rates back up CWGST on this one.
My worry around this Cap 4 movie has always been writer Malcolm Spellman. I just wasn’t impressed by Falcon and the Winter Soldier at all which Spellman served as head writer on. The villains especially were severely under developed for me. I liked some of the ideas on show, but there was also a lot that didn’t work for me. I’ve no issue with the title, nor whether it changes. I just find this such an odd claim I had to post it. Clearly this insider is confident in their info, so we will wait and see.
What do you think of the rumor that Captain America: New World Order will get a title change? As always, leave any thoughts below.
