Loki Season 2 Introduces Plot Change Hinting at Recasting Due to Jonathan Majors' Legal Trouble

Recasting plotline suggests Marvel may opt for gender swap for villain character; Renslayer, played by Gugu Mbatha-Raw, could become a variant of Kang, replacing Jonathan Majors' character.

Jonathan Majors' character, He Who Remains, in Loki Season 2 may be replaced by Gugu Mbatha-Raw's character, Renslayer. This plot change hinting at a potential gender swap is due to Majors' legal troubles.
In a divergence from the comics, Marvel is exploring the idea of making Renslayer a Kang variant, similar to how Sylvie is a Loki variant. This would ensure continuity in the Multiverse Saga even if Majors is found guilty in his pending trial.
The episode '1893' sheds light on the backstory of Victor Timely, a variant of He Who Remains. It suggests he was born in the 19th century and has been trying to manifest his futuristic designs since then.
Miss Minutes, an AI created by He Who Remains, appears to have developed motivations and ambitions beyond her original programming. She exhibits jealousy towards Renslayer and wishes to become a true partner to a Kang variant.
Ravonna Renslayer, after being betrayed by Miss Minutes, is banished to the end of time. The AI reveals she knows a secret about Renslayer, which could potentially alter her loyalty to He Who Remains. The series sets up a possible alliance between Renslayer and Miss Minutes to control the TVA and spite He Who Remains.
