Did Someone Just Leak The Title For Avengers 4?

So a couple of days ago, I wrote a post where I told you that Kevin Feige stated that that they were trying to keep the title to the Avengers 4 movie a secret, because the title would give too much away.  Two days later, it looks like maybe somebody let the title slip.

Originally, the next two movies were being called Infinity War: Part I and Part II, however it was later announced that the first movie would be Avengers: Infinity War, and the next movie has since just been referred to as Avengers 4.  In a recent interview (which the video has since been yanked) with BBC's Lizo Mzimba, Guardians of the Galaxy star Zoe Saldana may have let it slip that the title for Avengers 4 will be Avengers: Infinity Gauntlet.  If this is going to be the title of Avengers 4, what does that mean we can expect?

It sounds like both movies are going to be centered around our superheroes battle with Thanos.  They'll be divided between him trying to gather all of the Infinity Stones and his putting them together to create the Infinity Gauntlet.  So if the title turns out to be true, then by the end of Infinity War, Thanos will have probably collected all of the Infinity Stones, and will have made the Infinity Gauntlet, and with Infinity Gauntlet, it will feature the Avengers and the Guardians trying to stop him from using it before he literally destroys the entire universe.  I am curious as to whether "Death" will play a part in either or both of these films...

Nobody from Marvel or Disney has confirmed that this will be the title of the fourth Avengers movie, but considering that they're trying to play it close to the vest, and that the video of the interview has since been taken down, I'm betting that it's a better than average chance that this will be the title for the fourth Avengers film.

***UPDATE!!!***

James Gunn was asked about this revelation, and in an interview said the following:



“It’s not the title. My guess is that Zoe just misspoke. I’ll talk to Zoe today, but I would imagine that is just Zoe misspeaking and saying ‘Infinity Gauntlet’ instead of ‘Infinity War’.”

While James Gunn isn't the director of the next two Avengers films, he does have an insiders knowledge of what's going on behind the scenes with the MCU.  So everything that I just wrote is either wrong, or Gunn is trying to cover up the slip by Saldana.  Probably the first one...
