    Example of Custom Post Type args change via filter hook. Changing rewrite slug from movies to films:

    add_filter('register_post_type_args', 'movies_to_films', 10, 2);
function movies_to_films($args, $post_type){

    if ($post_type == 'movies'){
        $args['rewrite']['slug'] = 'films';
    }

    You can also use `register_{$post_type}_post_type_args` to target a specific post type.

    For example, you can use `register_post_post_type_args` to target only the Post post type and modify how it’s registered:

    add_filter( 'register_post_post_type_args', 'wpdocs_default_posts_template' );
/**
 * Add default template for new Posts with the Featured Image as the first block
 */
function wpdocs_default_posts_template( $args ) {
    $args['template'] = array(
        array( 'core/post-featured-image', array( 'align' => 'center' ) )
    );

    return $args;
}
