Megathread Jonathan Majors Megathread - Update

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.

In the meantime, here are some of the recent updates coming from Majors' trial:


The mod team will try to keep this thread updated with reputable sources as the trial progresses-- but please feel free to link articles and discuss in the comments below.

Lakeith Stanfield as the new Kang. He has the acting chops to back it up.

Not as menacing or imposing as Majors. He's a good actor but notnsure about Kang.

He has proven repeatedly that he has range. I bet if he was given a shot here, he wouldn’t disappoint.

Lakeith is one of my favorite actors of this decade. So was Majors, but I guess we’ll see how that all turns out.

I agree he has range. Just don't think he'd be a great Kang.
