Captain America: There’s always something new and exciting in the MCU, and now a new piece of news has come out that has caused a stir among fans. The title change and subsequent reshoot of the upcoming MCU film “Captain America: Brave New World” has been revealed by a Marvel Studios executive and the cast of the film.
When the MCU announced about the Phase 5 of its multiverse saga, the fourth part of Captain America was introduced under the name “Captain America: New World Order.” This subtitle had already given some political and global cues, showcasing the important aspects associated with the plot of this film. However, it was decided to change the title of the film, and now it is coming out as “Captain America: Brave New World.” More details about the reason behind this change and the film’s production process have now been revealed.
A statement from a Marvel Studios executive on the title change
Marvel Studios executive Nate Moore said the film’s original title, “New World Order,” felt right at first, but the subsequent public reaction and media attention gave it a different twist. According to Moore, Marvel never intended to directly incorporate any actual political events or world situation into the film. In the film “New World Order” meant only a fictional cosmic conflict, in which Captain America faces new challenges, and also faces conspiracies related to US President Ross, played by Harrison Ford.

Moore elaborated on this:
“For us’ New World Order ‘was a title that was really interesting, and also scary to an extent. But in reality, it didn’t mean any real political message. We received internal and external responses, which showed that this title caused discomfort. We never make stories that make headlines. Our aim is to create a world that harmonizes imagination and reality. “
Harrison Ford: “There is no president who can be the Hulk”
Harrison Ford, who plays President Ross in the film, reacted to the title change in a lighter vein. He joked that “so far no American president has turned into the Hulk,” pointing out that there is no similarity between the events being shown in the film and any real American president.
Ford said on the subject:
“No president in our political history has ever been turned into a Hulk. This film shows the struggles of a man who is struggling with his past, nature and circumstances. “
Anthony Mackie’s statement: No effect of reshoots
The film’s star Anthony Mackie, who now reprises his role as Captain America, made it clear that the reshoots of Captain America: Brave New World have not affected the film’s plot in any major way. McKee explained that reshoots are a normal process for every MCU film and the same has happened this time too. He said:
“It wasn’t a retake at all. All the Marvel films I’ve done have had reshoots. So, it was not a case of retooling or remaking. What we wanted, the same film and story we have made, just a few more scenes have been shot and edited in the right way. “
Conclusion
The team of “Captain America: Brave New World” clarified that the original intention of the film was always to focus on a fictional and interesting story, and not to reflect any political or real-world events. The change in title proves that Marvel Studios is aware of the sensibilities and thoughts of its audience. Now, the wait for this new chapter of the MCU is making everyone even more excited.
With the release of the film it will be interesting to see how Captain America and his new companions face the new threat of the world.
