was finally fired!
It is reported that after the jury announced yesterday (12.18) that Marvel's "Conqueror Kang" Jonathan Majors was found guilty of two counts, Marvel Studios quickly announced the dismissal of Jonathan Majors.
The case of Jonathan Majors has been making waves for almost a year. In March of this year, it was exposed that Jonathan Majors was involved in a domestic dispute. Then Jonathan Majors was quickly arrested. He was arrested and prosecuted by the Manhattan District Attorney.

Contains multiple charges before and after -
Multiple counts of third-degree assault , three counts of attempted assault in the third degree, one count of aggravated harassment in the second degree, and one count of harassment in the second degree.
These crimes put Jonathan Majors into a huge crisis at the time. After being exposed, Jonathan Majors' public relations company directly terminated cooperation with him in April, although the lawyer at the time It has also been emphasized that Jonathan Majors is innocent.
However, after this incident, except for the fact that Marvel Studios did not make a clear position, Jonathan Majors can almost be described as a betrayal!
Then Jonathan Majors’ case went through long months of tossing. In October, the court rejected the defense’s motion to withdraw the case, and then announced that the trial would begin on November 29. What followed was what we have now. According to the news obtained, a Manhattan jury found Jonathan Majors -
guilty. The specific sentence of Jonathan Majors will be announced on February 6 next year. What is currently known is that he can face up to 1 year in prison. .
But obviously, regardless of the length of time, Marvel finally chose to terminate cooperation with Jonathan Majors after this incident. This possibility has actually always been within the scope of choice of Marvel executives, and it was also the case earlier. It is rumored that Marvel intends to use the character of "Doctor Doom" to replace the current position of "Kang the Conqueror" in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Of course!
It is currently not ruled out that Marvel will choose to find another actor to replace Jonathan Majors and continue to play the role of "Kang". After all, according to Marvel's plan for the character, "Kang" will be in the 4-5-6 stage. This character positioning is comparable to Thanos, and Marvel has already paved the way for his character in several works.
Now, if you change the final boss, it can be said that one move will affect the whole body, and Marvel will also bear huge risks for this, so personally, changing the actor may be Marvel's final choice.
It is worth mentioning that according to the news reported by THR, Marvel has eliminated the original subtitle "Kang's Dynasty" from "Avengers 5" and instead directly used "Avengers 5" to correspond to the title. project.
Taking a step back:
In fact, Jonathan Majors' performance in several Marvel works is quite remarkable. I think there are even some small surprises in his acting skills. He is considered a Marvel 4-5- One of the few actors in the 6th stage who can make people feel that he is clearly superior to other character actors around him.
But Nai He couldn't control his own hands. For this reason, after the general news of the verdict was exposed, many people on the Internet cheered for it. In their view, Jonathan Majors' operation should not have been done at all. After such a long interrogation period.
For Marvel on the other side, it is also a bit unlucky now. They originally had great hopes for Jonathan Majors, but what they waited for was nothing, and because of the things that had been laid out before After several works, Marvel still has to clean up the mess in the logic of this worldview and plot.
The first one is the question of who will take over if the role of "Kang" continues to be played up. To this end, some netizens on social platform X said that British actor John Boyega "dressed like Kang a few years ago." Also included is a photo of the cast at the world premiere of "The Force Awakens," with John Boyega wearing a purple and black suit, proposed to replace Jonathan Majors.
