Marvel Studios has officially retitled Thunderbolts* as The New Avengers. The studio made the announcement on social media Monday with a change to the title on the film’s poster.
Nothing says this film is doing well like changing the title after months of advertisement campaigns.
Rumor has it that Marvel was worried it would bomb, and naming it “New Avengers” would put them in an awkward position moving forward. Thunderbolts was the backup-insurance-title basically.
Now that the movie seems to be doing well, it’s getting its proper title.
