The MCU is facing a major upheaval: after Jonathan Majors was found guilty by the court in a domestic violence case, the Marvel Universe has lost one of its most important actors, as he previously played Kang, the current main villain of the MCU era. Following the verdict, Disney has now divorced the actor and fans are wondering what happens next in the comic universe? Will the role be recast or will the entire storyline surrounding conqueror Kang be rewritten?
There is no official answer to this yet, but since then the rumor mill has of course been running at full speed. According to the usually well-informed insider Daniel Richtman (via ), however, there is already a possible candidate to recast the role, which fans of the zombie series from ‘The Walking Dead’ cosmos should know very well.
The insider calls Colman Domingo as an option to replace majors, However, he emphasizes that considerations about how to fill the role are still at an early stage.
Fans of ‘Fear The Walking Dead’ know the actor well
Colman Domingo is here for zombie fans from the series “Fear the walking dead“, where he plays former paramedic Victor Strand. But the actor has also made a name for himself on the big screen, for example through his performances in the films ‘If Beale Street Could Talk’, ‘Lincoln’ and the remake ‘Candyman’. In Germany, the remake of the Steven Spielberg classic ‘The Color Purple’ will return to cinemas on February 8, 2024.
Although the mime, at 54, is slightly older than the 34-year-old Majors, the endless possibilities of the multiverse should make it easy to explain his new appearance and age difference. Only time will tell if we’ll see Colman Domingo or a completely different actor like Kang in the MCU anytime soon.
