Last year actor Jonathan Majors was dropped by Disney/Marvel after his conviction on domestic violence charges [click here if you missed that].
According to new reports Majors role at Marvel was on the chopping block BEFORE is legal issues...
Marvel is also cleaning up the creative mess left in the wake of Jonathan Majors, the once-rising actor cast to play the lynchpin villain role in the next Avengers movies but who in December was found guilty of reckless assault in the third degree and harassment in a Manhattan court after a domestic incident with his ex-partner, a movement coach he met while working on Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania.
Marvel dropped Majors hours after the conviction and is rewriting those movies, which will now either minimize the character or excise him entirely. The first of the new Avengers movies, due out in 2026, was initially titled Avengers: The Kang Dynasty but will be getting a new title to remove the character’s name, though sources say that even before Majors’ conviction, the studio was making moves to minimize the character after Quantumania underperformed, grossing $476 million.

The detector said--that's a lie!
His reputation preceded him. Our boy was very difficult on a movie set.
@7:52 AM He was known for his aggression toward women and they didn't care. They thought they could contain him. No one can contain a black male's ego. No one.
Oh look! The small headed/big jaw dude Katt Williams was talking about. 🤣🥴
I never followed his personal life. I enjoyed his work as an up and coming Black actor. Sad to see all this happening.
@11:55 I COMPLETELY agree.
