Marvel Slandered for Controversial Title

New World Order is a major conspiracy theory that believes that a secretive elite group of people is planning to control the world with an authoritarian government. The topic is very controversial and is something that Marvel should probably stray away from. Fans were especially off-put due to the fact that the New World Order is often associated with antisemitic ideology.

After months of criticism from fans, Marvel has finally announced a new title for the movie. In a newly released post from Anthony Macky, the new title of the film was revealed. The caption states;

“When Harrison Ford tells you how kicking ass should look, you listen! LoL… Thanks for the on set wisdom and laughs my friend!
Can’t wait to do it again… Marvel Studios’ Captain America: Brave New World in theaters May 3, 2024.”
