Seth Rollins Cut From Captain America: Brave New World Due to Script Changes

Seth Rollins' originally filmed role in 'Captain America: Brave New World' was ultimately cut during the film's post-production, as confirmed by director Julius Onah. Rollins was initially cast as a member of the Serpent Society, but the character's presence was deemed inconsistent with the movie's more grounded tone, leading to a shift in direction that introduced a new antagonist portrayed by Giancarlo Esposito. In interviews, Rollins expressed his understanding of the decision, noting that the film underwent significant script changes and he holds no hard feelings about losing the role to Esposito. He also mentioned that both he and his wife, Becky Lynch, had their scenes cut from Marvel projects, reflecting on the common experience of actors in the industry. Despite the disappointment, Rollins remains hopeful that his character may be revisited in the future. 'Brave New World' is currently performing steadily at the box office, despite facing negative critical reviews.
