Jonathan Majors was a very promising debut in Lokibut it’s in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantum Mania where he really was able to shine like Kang the Conqueror. However, the fate of the actor could end very far from the Marvel Cinematic Universe. And for an unusual reason: He almost walked out of a meeting with Marvel because they made him wait too long..
The Majors admitted this in a recent interview with the publication. Vanity Fairwhen it comes to tackling a new supervillain in Marvel Studios productions for a long time.
When asked if he had any concerns about signing an agreement to play the same character for a long time, the actor made a kind of revelation.
“I hope this doesn’t cause me any problems, but I walked out of my first general meeting with Marvel,” the Californian explained. But not because of creative differences or anything like that, but because company executives they were too busy to serve you and he preferred to leave the room so that no one would waste time in vain.
“It was a long time ago. I had just graduated from drama school, running around the city and sitting in the office. I was raised in a very special way, and I never liked wasting anyone’s time. So I went there and they were all busy And I thought, “I should be here, right?” The wait got longer and I said, “I’ll just go. There’s no problem. I’ll just go.” I got to the door, but then they said that [la directora de casting] Sarah Finn walked. We entered the room and chatted. We had a great conversation and I think three years later we were talking about Kang. Now there are no more worries, especially about who Kang is. When I said yes, we had the full picture and what is presented now is coherent.”

This was stated by Kevin Feige himself, the president of the company. ugh than Kang the Conqueror this is the villain best measured in pre-test predictions they usually make for family and friends. “It really says something about a movie like this. Even from the very beginning, without ready-made special effects. Jonathan is an effect in itself,” he said.
advised Vanity Fair about how it affects seeing the posters Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantum Mania with a close-up of Kang the Conqueror’s face, Jonathan Majors was strong. “I have seen all the Marvel movies and never thought I would be chosen for this. They didn’t ask me to change my approach to acting, which is what I was most afraid of. Seeing the poster, I’m probably one of the few times I said: “Oh my God, this can’t be true”. I am completely indifferent. I’m rather slow to get emotional, but then I thought, “Oh, I’m ready.”
