Recent rumors suggest that Marvel Studios may be considering bringing Jonathan Majors back as Kang the Conqueror.
The actor’s role as the multiversal villain was central to the MCU’s Phase 5 plans, but his legal troubles raised doubts about his future in the franchise.
Majors, who faced assault and harassment charges, was removed from Avengers: The Kang Dynasty, and the film was reworked.
However, reports now indicate that Kevin Feige and Marvel Studios are evaluating the possibility of Majors’ return to finish Kang’s storyline.
Kang’s arc was introduced in Loki and Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, but Majors’ absence left the character’s fate uncertain.
Marvel may see Majors as the only actor capable of properly concluding Kang’s narrative.
While the decision is not final, a return could impact upcoming films like Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars, especially as the MCU enters its multiverse phase.
However, the controversy surrounding Majors’ past remains a significant factor in Marvel’s decision.
