Jellyfin performs best when movie folders contain additional identifiers like:
It's trying to identify the movie and failing, so picking its next best guess. You can help resolve this by using the tmdbid or imdbid in the folder name OR by deleting all of the metadata for this item and entering the TMDB or IMDB ID in the metadata edit box on the movie page. You can also use "Identify", just clear out everything first and then use one of the aforementioned IDs to identify the media.
