Marvel Studios President Regrets Keeping Title of Next 'Infinity War' Film Secret

Marvel Studio’s president Kevin Feige recently did an interview where he spoke about a number of topics, with Avengers: Infinity War being a key part of the conversation. Speaking to Collider, he also spoke about his slight regret at keeping the title of the sequel to Infinity War secret. He also confirmed that it will not be called Infinity Gauntlet. When asked about what it will be titled Feige said the following:

“When we announce the title I am not sure, but as I’ve probably said to you, it’s gotten completely blown out of proportion. It will just be a name and the reason to hold it back was to keep the attention on Infinity War. That backfired a little bit because now everyone thinks what’s the name of the next one gonna be? But it was really just to keep the focus [on Infinity War]. We did not want to call it Part One and Part Two. Although it will be quite evident that the films obviously connect, as all our films do, but this in particular connects very directly. And then we changed the Part One and Part Two, we said let’s just keep this Infinity War and we’ll talk about the next movie later. We had done things in the past that had taken attention off of whatever the film at hand is because we talked about this. For instance, Infinity War announcing before Ultron came out, and it worked out, it was fine, but it felt like let’s keep the attention on the film at hand.”

He also spoke about the success of Black Panther, when the sequel for said film is arriving and what movie shoots were the most intense. You can read the rest of the interview at Collider.
