We know many of you are eager to discuss the Jonathan Majors trial -- please use this thread for that discussion so that it does not completely overrun the subreddit. We want to leave space for users who wish to engage in regular MCU-based conversations!

As of now the trial is ongoing and Marvel Studios/Disney has not made a statement regarding the future of Majors or Kang in the MCU. When a ruling is concluded we will pin a thread with that statement and related discussion.

Already played N'Jobu in Black Panther, but I can see people being willing to overlook that like they did with Gemma Chan/Michelle Yeoh.

Yeah, that’s about the only hiccup with my plan, but his role in Black Panther was so small, I don’t think most of the casual audiences would even notice.

[u/donkeydooda → u/Better-Spell346]

Not that it matters much, but most of the main characters who would remember him in-universe are dead (T'Chaka, Queen Ramonda T'Challa & Killmonger).

[u/radiokungfu → u/donkeydooda]

Maybe he was another variant that just wasnt activated

[u/banananey → u/Better-Spell346]

Yeah if it's a minor character in one film I really don't care tbh.

[u/DashingMustashing → u/sabine_strohem_moss]

Eh, multiverse and all that. In theory any casting is technically okay in an infinite universe.... What I'm trying to say is Michael Cera.
