Starting with the asterisk, the video clip takes the audience to the logo of The New Avengers. 

In case you might have watched Thunderbolts*, you would have witnessed that the team of anti-heroes and outcasts become The New Avengers towards the climax of the movie. The reason why the movie was called Thunderbolts* was because Yelena’s school time sports team is called Thunderbolts. 

However, with time as she, along with Red Guardian, US Agent, Bucky Barnes aka the Winter Soldier, and Ghost save the day, from the villainous god like entity, and the other darker side of Sentry, The Void, they are recognised as The New Avengers, by none other than the actual villain of the movie, Valentina Allegra de Fontaine.
