When someone creates a new entry for a movie or tv show on TMDb, the system automatically creates the URL for this entry by using the title that was entered by this someone. However, when this title is changed later for any reason, the URL does not automatically change. Only we moderators can do this with a special moderator tool that's called "Reset Pretty URL."
In this specific case, the entry was created in September 2019, and then the original title was changed one time in December 2020 -> according to the change history here:
Because no moderator was involved here, the URL didn't change accordingly. I used the moderator tool now - so it's correct now.
When you find such wrong URLs for other entries in the future, you can always report those entries and a moderator will look into it. The same goes for person entries -> when URLs are not matching the name for a person, we moderators can also update those URLs. And, honestly, it happens quite often with persons for different reasons -> marriage/divorce, spelling errors, wrong language, etc.

It was the original title (although I'm not sure why it's listed in the URL).
