Jonathan Majors Plays Coy on Possible MCU Return as Kang

His coy remarks follow Marvel's 2023 split, with the franchise now pivoted to Doctor Doom.

Overview

  • Asked about rumors of a comeback, Majors told the U.S. Sun he "cannot say anything" and added that the MCU's multiverse leaves "a lot of opportunity" for a return.
  • There is no confirmation from Marvel or Disney of any talks to rehire him, and any speculation about a surprise appearance remains unverified.
  • Marvel Studios cut ties with Majors after his December 2023 conviction for reckless assault and harassment, and he later received probation with a year-long intervention program.
  • Coverage notes he completed a 52‑week domestic violence intervention program and is pursuing new work, including reading a superhero project unrelated to Marvel or DC.
  • Marvel has shifted its flagship storyline from Kang to Doctor Doom, with Avengers: Doomsday slated for December 18, 2026 and Avengers: Secret Wars for December 17, 2027.
