Yeah Majors is probably not gonna be with Marvel now.

John Boyega should be the replacement because he's awesome and not a garbage person

The rumors are Damson Idris. Too bad the MCU Spoiler Reddit is gone.

Nah, just Jean-Ralphio, so only half as much rotation.

Disney owe Boyega for the terrible way he was treated during Star Wars. They gave Oscar Isaac a whole series all to himself, they could give Boyega a leading villain role easily.

If they make it about how hard it is to BE an actor it could even be Oscar bait!

The Wonder Man production would have absolutely no power of influence over the projects Kang is involved in.

That being said I’m sure there are plenty of other talented folks they could audition. I actually would just love it if Disney condemned the actions and used it to offer resources for others in violent situations and didn’t care at all to write in why it’s someone else.

I just watched a Nando v. Movies video where he explains the full history of the two women who have been known as Psylock and it is such a twisty and turny Pepe Silvia corkboard of retcons and brain swaps and body swaps and faked deaths and personality overrides and secret psychic imprints that it seems like an "Okay so Marvel managed to explain its way around the weird racist poo poo such that it kinda sorta never happened but my god at what cost" type scenario.

Eh, it's not too complicated, at least as far as X-Men retcons are concerned. She was physically changed as part of a weird scheme by The Hand, which would have been temporary except the Jim Lee redesign exploded in popularity. Then Fabian Nicieza accidentally retconned it into a body swap after misreading the previous comics, creating the character Kwannon who was stuck in Psylock's original body. It was only recently that they regained their original forms, with Betsy Braddock giving up the Psylock name to Kwannon, and instead taking on her brother's previous role as Captain Britain.

Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.
I've got to imagine that Disney's thunderous silence at this point is because they're panicking; they'd have an easy out with "oh, getting the prime version killed made Kang look different", except that Loki Season 2 is already shot.

For whatever it's worth, they're not hiding Majors in the promos for Quantumania's DVD release. The money shot is still him screaming and shooting lasers out of his hands or whatever that is.
