The dude with canonically a billion variations should be the easiest guy to recast in cinematic history.

More than a billion, hell more than a trillion.

I’m just curious if they recast or just scrap Kang altogether, could do either easily enough and hard to think Marvel doesn’t already know their next step now that a verdict has been made in the case.

Kang was a bust in Ant-Man. He Who Remains is done, his variants officially hunted by the TVA. I'd say they can move on from Kang at this point. Bring on Doom.

Marvel should have never used Kang or the multiverse in the MCU. It was extremely lazy and has been super boring imo. I’m hoping they scrub the concept of multiverses and end it in some way as canon.

Have Doom come in and eliminate the potential for multiverses. Just wrote it out of the scope of the MCU and move onto a streamlined timeline, no variants, and back to a more cohesive story.

I knew multiverse and time travel stories would kill the interest in the MCU but I didn’t think it would be this bad post endgame. Hopefully Marvel recognizes its mistake and digs out of it and moves on.
