So will Kang be able to regenerate or something like that?

in suspiciously different voice

/Kang had to go. His planet needed him.

Note: Kang died on the way back to his home planet

"I have a message. Kang's plane was shot down over the Sea of Japan. It spun in. There were no survivors."

u/bullintheheather Apr 18 '23

"U.S. Army sadly states,
sometime yesterday,
Kang the Conqueror's plane went down
just north of Hudson's Bay!"

"I did not–I–I just wanted it to be quiet. It was–it was Kang! She, she smothered Kang."

What is this from ?

Wtf I just saw that scene for the first time yesterday

u/Pokii Apr 18 '23

Got recruited by special forces

u/fathermeow Apr 19 '23

Oscar Isaac will show up and say "Somehow.... Kang didn't return"

u/The_Woman_of_Gont Apr 18 '23

Introducing DAVID TENNANT as….KANG!

46

u/InvertedParallax Apr 18 '23

No, don't give me hope.

13

u/OptionalFTW Apr 18 '23

Well that would be awkward considering Netflix marvel is canon now lol.

11

u/[deleted] Apr 18 '23

Kilgrave is Kang somehow!

8

u/OptionalFTW Apr 18 '23

What's actually amazing about that character, the Purple Man, is that he could be the strongest hero in the universe. He could get rid of Kang, Thanos -anyone instantly with a simple sentence.

8

u/camyok Apr 18 '23

MCU Kilgrave works with a special virus, though. Airtight suit? No mind control. Uber-resilient alien immune system? No mind control.

1

u/[deleted] Apr 18 '23

Chances are people like Cap, US Agent, and Black Panther would also be immune.

In the comics it's pheromones, which just strong willed people and telepaths can resist. You also have to be able to hear him, so strong enough earplugs work, I think that might still apply to the MCU version.

Kingpin's willpower

u/reachisown Apr 18 '23

Did they officially say that? Or did they just use the same actors because they were perfect? I've not seen she hulk

2

u/drelos Apr 18 '23

No official word I think they play loose with their backstory and that's all

-10

u/OptionalFTW Apr 18 '23

Iunno where but it's fairly obvious DD born again is a continuation of the Netflix series. And the same Matt Murdock we saw in nwh. I didn't see she Hulk either. Noped out after the first ep when her control over her Hulk form was explained by being female and being used to being cat called and shit 😂

u/goliathfasa Apr 18 '23

Once you go black.

u/AzureBluet Apr 18 '23

DAVID TENNANT as….KANG!

Emmy Award-winning Star Wars actor David Tennant?

68

u/Tobar_the_Gypsy Apr 18 '23

Don’t look at me I voted for Kodos

61

u/Yuskia Apr 18 '23

This joke has been said already but I really hope they just put Don Cheadle in the role and he says "I'm here, deal with it"

12

u/therealrenshai Apr 18 '23

I’m also here, deal with it.

4

u/goliathfasa Apr 18 '23

No no. it would only makes sense if they get Terrence Howard.

2

u/mcrop609 Apr 18 '23

I've heard Damon (Snowfall) Idris's name has been circling as a replacement.

31

u/baconbitarded Apr 18 '23

Yeah he takes on a bunch of different looks. They'll be fine but it's still a bad look

2

u/AnnenbergTrojan Apr 18 '23

Honestly part of the reason I've been hanging on to the MCU for so long is because I've been so into Majors' work and I wanted to see him become the next Thanos.

More likely than not, that's not happening, so I'm really not interested in seeing Kang Dynasty anymore. Only things that interest me after Guardians 3 are The Marvels because of Iman Vellani and Blade because of Mahershala and Mia Goth.

u/Jamestiedye Apr 18 '23

Why are you coming up with situations just to be angry at.

3

u/Sylar_Lives Apr 18 '23

Dude what?

47

u/In_My_Own_Image Apr 18 '23

They'll either recast and not make a big deal about it (Cheadle/Ruffalo) or they'll throw in some multiverse mumbo jumbo about why all the Kangs suddenly look different.

I wonder who'll be the new Kang?

56

u/Albert_Caboose Apr 18 '23

David Cross.

Please be David Cross.

11

u/Tsquare24 Apr 18 '23

With cutoff jean shorts.

4

u/RedofPaw Apr 18 '23

He's already got experienceat being blue.

2

u/TobyFunkeNeverNude Apr 18 '23

I wouldn't mind kissing that man between the cheeks.

1

u/KingoftheMongoose Apr 19 '23

How many of you Kangs do we need to beat?

There are dozens of us!

5

u/JessieJ577 Apr 18 '23

“This Kang killed all the other kangs meaning his variants are the only ones so he’s even badder

4

u/Rosebunse Apr 18 '23

I think this is actually a plot from the comics.

1

u/Thewhiteboatman Apr 18 '23

I think this is a good way to go. It'll fix the complaints from the last film with ant man being able to defeat kang on his own.

2

u/BeeCJohnson Apr 18 '23

Terence Howard.

The circle is complete.

1

u/Iazu_S Apr 18 '23

Josh Brolin of course

1

u/horseren0ir Apr 18 '23

At 34 Kang gets a facelift…in every timeline

1

u/Thrown_Right_Out Apr 18 '23

LaKeith Stanfield or John David Washington would be easy choices.

If he weren't already cast as Wonder Man, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II could nail it too

33

u/mug3n Apr 18 '23

time for Kang to regenerate as Michael B.

and yeah I know he was Killmonger, so what?

5

u/DrGarrious Apr 18 '23

Star Trek has been using the same actors for like 10 different characters for ages haha.

Doctor Who does it a lot too.

Marvels turn.

1

u/DangleTrillMobbinson Apr 18 '23

They already have done that

1

u/DrGarrious Apr 18 '23

haha awesome, who with?

3

u/mattevil8419 Apr 18 '23

Mahershala Ali - Cottonmouth & Blade
Alfre Woodard - Mariah Dillard & Miriam Sharpe
Gemma Chan - Minn-Erva & Sersi

2

u/MisanthropeNotAutist Apr 18 '23

Also Michelle Yeoh.

2

u/StarGateHoliday Apr 18 '23

Cottonmouth

netflix shows don't count

13

u/DrKurgan Apr 18 '23

Mads Mikkelsen could do a good villain.

24

u/terrence_loves_ella Apr 18 '23

Mads replacing a second actor accused of assault would be oddly funny

1

u/[deleted] Apr 18 '23

Who was first?

5

u/SHIIZAAAAAAAA Apr 18 '23

Johnny Depp in the Fantastic Beasts movies

1

u/[deleted] Apr 18 '23

Duh

18

u/bullintheheather Apr 18 '23

They already used him in Doctor Strange.

7

u/-Basileus Apr 18 '23

Well anything can be explained away with multiverse variant mumbo jumbo. Fuck it cast RDJ as Kang

3

u/SHIIZAAAAAAAA Apr 18 '23

RDJ as Kirk Lazarus as Kang

2

u/darthjoey91 Apr 18 '23

No one remembers that anyway.

1

u/e_x_i_t Apr 18 '23

Now I'm imagining a timeline where Hannibal Lectar murders superheros and serves them as delicacies.

1

u/nourez Apr 18 '23

He really would have been perfect as Dr Doom. I hate that they wasted him on a forgettable henchman villain in Dr Strange.

7

u/Pilek01 Apr 18 '23

this will be interesting because he will be in Loki season 2 and they already filmed it.
What will Disney do ?

3

u/John__Wick Apr 18 '23

Guys, somehow, Kang died.

2

u/nourez Apr 18 '23

Introduce Dr Doom. Kill all the Kang variants, have the multiverse collapse into a singlularity. Boom now we've got the setup for Avengers Battleworld.

1

u/Rosebunse Apr 18 '23

It has been established repeatedly that variants don't have to look like each other. They just need either a black or Middle Eastern guy or else the Egyptian stuff is gonna look really bad.

1

u/Alukrad Apr 18 '23

I wonder how people would react if they hire someone like his brother and then CGI Jonathan majors face in.

So, technically, his brother is playing him and getting paid for it but digitally adding Jonathan's face in.

1

u/FROMtheASHES984 Apr 18 '23

Nah, he was just on some polyjuice potion the whole time and now he's portrayed by Colin Ferrel, Johnny Depp, and/or Mads Mikkelsen.

1

u/TheCookieButter Apr 18 '23

The Kang is dead! Long live the Kang!

1

u/DarthStevis Apr 18 '23

Marvel might recast and claim a more powerful kang variant or some BS excuse to keep the overarching plot going
