With all the reported rewrites and reshoots during the production of Captain America: Brave New World, a number of characters were cut to give Sam Wilson a clear flight path onto screens. The Serpent Society were among the biggest casualties in the film, including WWE star Seth Rollins, who did not make it to the final cut. Another team that appeared in earlier drafts of the film, however, was The Illuminati, who, while only making it as far as script pages, have seemingly been linked to who Samuel Sterns (Tim Blake Nelson) was referring to in the film's post-credit scene.
Director Julius Onah was asked to confirm whether the team composed of Marvel's most remarkable minds would actually appear in the film and who would be on the member list for his version of the group. Naturally, as is customary for anyone who has worked on a Marvel movie, Onah remained as quiet as possible but did suggest that they might be referenced in the movie's closing moments.
"I’m not going to say! I’m not going to say," he promised to The Wrap during intense questioning. "Let’s just say things are purposely left vague in that post-credit for a reason."
