After Jonathan Majors was found guilty on charges of assault and harassment after going to trial over domestic violence allegations, Marvel Studios fired the actor. They confirmed that Majors had been let go from his role as Kang.
The makers also reported that Avengers: The Ang Dynasty has also lost its title, and it is referred to as Avengers 5 simply for the time being until a new title is decided upon.
However, reports suggest that Marvel wanted to drop the Kang storyline from the MCU altogether. With a title change, there’s still a chance Kang could be recast with another actor in the role. The Kang Dynasty is also switching gears creatively after firing Major.
Michael Waldron, who was recently brought on board to write the follow-up film, Avengers: Secret Wars, is now set to pen both the scrips with alternative changes. With no telling who will be the antagonist in Avengers 5, the makers are looking at creative shifts into the role of Kang.
