The MCU needs Kang, and he should be back in time for Avengers: Secret Wars

I'll say this from the start so you don't get the wrong idea. I think there's no excuse in this universe, or any others if we also cohabitate a multiverse of realities like our favorite Marvel heroes, where Jonathan Majors's real-life actions should be excused or tolerated. If a jury found him guilty, that's that. His career is over — at least for the time being — and that includes his interpretation of Kang for the MCU.

I'll also say that Jonathan Majors made me love Kang more than I thought I would. I think this is an amazing villain/hero for the MCU, even better and more powerful than Thanos (Josh Brolin).

But Kang's presence should not depend on Majors. Plenty of talented actors could bring this multi-faceted hero to life on the big screen and on Disney Plus. I would certainly want to see Kang again, as I'm dying to see how Avengers 5 and Secret Wars shape up.

Finally, I'll add that I have not read the comics. I'm not that kind of diehard fan. Like many MCU fans, I've discovered Kang via Loki, Quantumania, and then Loki season 2. Therefore, I've never had any expectations for this Multiverse Saga villain.

With all that in mind, I'm excited to see not one but several Marvel insiders I follow say that the MCU will not abandon Kang. Instead, the villain will return by the end of the Multiverse Saga via a recast. Before I explain, let me give you the usual warning: Spoilers might follow below.
