One of the most controversial elements of the upcoming “Captain America: Brave New World” has been altered according to a blog post on Marvel’s official website.

With the film’s trailer arriving the other day, further information about the project has been released in the posting and confirms that the character of Ruth Bat-Seraph (aka. Sabra) is getting a new backstory.

In the comics, Sabra is an “X-Men” mutant who was a member of the Israeli secret service the Mossad. In the film however, she will be a former Black Widow turned high-ranking U.S. government official who has the trust of President Ross.

The reason for the change is officially unknown at this time. Shira Haas plays the role in the film with Marvel Studios previously saying that the character would have a “new approach” to her.

The news comes as Marvel Studios has announced that it will be holding a panel at San Diego Comic Con on Saturday July 27th.
