p=1VQZde<br>pid=772551<br><br>Content:<br>Film title changes are a common practice in foreign markets, which Marvel Studios continued with the [i]Captain Marvel[/i] sequel, [i]The Marvels[/i].
The Marvel Cinematic Universe finally returned to China last year. This began with [i]Black Panther: Wakanda Forever[/i] being retitled to [i]黑豹2 [/i]aka [i]Black Panther 2[/i]; it also included the subtitle [i]Long Live Wakanda[/i]. The priority seemed to make it clear it was a direct sequel.
This isn&#34;t entirely consistent, as [i]Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania[/i] wasn&#34;t re-titled and kept the original intact. However, alternatives were seemingly still used in [i]蟻人3 [/i]aka[i] Ant-Man 3, [/i]and even on the subtitle, which translated to[i] Quantum Frenzy[/i].
Title Change in China for The MarvelsA new poster for [i]The Marvels[/i] in China revealed that the [i]Captain Marvel[/i] sequel will be released under the title of [i]惊奇队长2[/i], which translates to [i]Captain Marvel 2[/i].

For marketing, a title like this in foreign markets would likely be lost in translation or need to be clarified for audiences.
Why This Is a Good Decision for Captain Marvel Sequel[i]Captain Marvel[/i] made an impressive $155 million in China, making it an enormously important territory. However, recent films in Phase 5 haven&#34;t faired as well in China.
[i]Black Panther[/i] made just over $105 million, while its sequel, [i]Wakanda Forever[/i], earned a pitiful $15.5 million. [i]Ant-Man and the Wasp[/i] ended its run with an even higher $120 million, but [i]Quantumania[/i] fell just as hard with $39 million at the Chinese box office.
[i]Wakanda Forever[/i] at the Chinese box office ended with 85% less earnings than its predecessor, while [i]Quantumania[/i] was down 67.5%. If this pattern continues, [i]The Marvels[/i] will be lucky to earn over $39 million.
Changing the sequel title to be less clever and more concise was a decision no doubt made to help the box office in China, but Marvel Studios might have to stop hoping to get the same numbers it did years ago.
[i]The Marvels[/i] will be released in theaters on November 10.<br><br><font color=red>Difference=c2325</font><br><br><a href='/p/1VQZde'>Return</a>
