With Phase 5 underway and Kang threatening the entire Marvel Universe, Majors’ arrest and arrest may upend Marvel Studios’ plans.
Kang could be a problem for Marvel Studios. It is not pleasant to give this news, just as what is happening should not be pleasant to anyone. After the arrest of Jonathan Majors for alleged assault and mistreatment of a woman, there are many fans, who without wanting to downplay the facts or those affected, are concerned about how all this can affect the UCM and the villain of time.
Marvel Studios recently introduced a new villain for Phase 5 and 6 of the MCU, Kang the Conqueror, in the movie ‘Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania’, although we had already seen him briefly in Season 1 of ‘Loki’.
Despite being a major character in the comics, there is concern about his appearance in upcoming MCU projects following the events surrounding the arrest and arrest of the actor who plays him.
Although the latest update on what happened comes from Majors’ lawyer: who has defended his client by declaring that he is innocent of all charges and that this is a plan to harm the actor by a woman he knows. When there is more information about it, we will give timely news about it.
¿A Phase 5 of the Marvel Universe since Kang?
This arrest could have serious implications for the actor’s career at UCM. Although no specific details have been released about the incident that led to Majors’ arrest, the impact on his career could be significant. But also in the fact that the character could be removed in the MCU.
For Marvel, the main problem lies in the public image of the company and its brand. The company has been dealing with some controversies after some comments from certain actors, which has led to some criticism from fans.
Production on Phase 5 and upcoming films currently in development could be affected if Majors is convicted. All this, obviously, will depend on the results of the investigation and the evolution of the judicial case of which there are no details.
Although Kang has already appeared twice in the UCM, his role as the main villain is relevant enough for the future of the UCM to change if he does not put a quick solution to his judicial problems, since Kang, like Thanos, has a long way to go. to go in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Hiring another actor could be another solution, as has been done in the past, but it’s a more drastic response. Anyway, and having the presumption of innocence as a starting point for any comment.
We will have to closely follow the events to keep you informed and hope that everything is resolved in the best, fairest and legal way for those affected.
