Marvel is still not ready to let go of Kang the Conqueror. An industry scooper has revealed certain information pointing the fans in that direction. Even though Marvel has officially scrapped the title to Avengers 5 from Avengers: The Kang Dynasty. Things changed after Jonathan Majors was proven guilty in the domestic abuse case last year. Keep scrolling for more.
The actor appeared in the MCU for the first time in Loki Season 1 as He Who Remains, one of the many variants of Kang. Last year, Majors made his MCU feature debut with Ant-Man and the Wasp, Quantumania, and one month later, he was arrested for physically abusing his ex-girlfriend Grace Jabbari. The verdict came out by the end of 2023, and Marvel immediately dropped him. Since then, there have been several speculations among the fans about who would be best suited to replace Jonathan.
The Color Purple star Colman Domingo and Tenet’s John David Washington’s name came up in the mix as the frontrunners for the role. The industry insider, Daniel Richtson, has claimed that Kang will still be the big villain in the Avengers movies, but the studio wants to add another villain with him. The scooper has made more claims regarding other MCU projects, including the much-awaited Deadpool 3, starring Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman.
It would be hard for Marvel to just magically drop Kang after they showed the Council of Kangs in the post-credit scene of Ant-Man 3. He will allegedly appear in Avengers 5 & 6. Let’s see what the netizens are feeling about this latest rumor.
One of the users wrote, “Annihilus and Galactus could be involved with the increase of incursions.”
Another explained, “Makes sense they set up kang and the multiverse sage they can’t ditch it. I guess we can bring in doom, but why if we’ll most likely get a lot of kangs.”
A person wrote, “I’m willing to bet Marvel is gonna bring back Johnathan Majors as Kang. They have yet to even announce anything in terms of a replacement.”
One said, “Bring on the Beyonder.”
Followed by another saying, “I’m really hoping this is true. That other villain will have to be the Beyonder.”
While one suggested, “Doom because Beyonder wouldn’t make sense.”
A fan requested, “please don’t bring back thanos.”
One frustrated user said, “What a mess.”
Kang the Conqueror is reportedly still the main villain of ‘AVENGERS 5 & 6’
Marvel however want to have another top villain in the Multiverse Saga
For the unversed, Disney reportedly presented the investors with the timeline for upcoming MCU projects. According to ComicbookMovie, Avengers: The Kang Dynasty was listed as Avengers 5, while the sixth installment was still there as Avengers: Secret Wars.
What did this scooper say about Deadpool 3?
Daniel Richtson has claimed that Deadpool 3 will introduce a new concept to the Multiverse. According to that, there will be one being in every universe; without them, the universe will die. This Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman starrer MCU flick will be released in the theatres in July.
