He found solace in the world of theatre after watching Heath Ledger’s performance as the Joker in Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight, which reminded him of the criminals with moralistic dualities he grew up with.

What’s Going On With Jonathan Majors 2023?

Despite experiencing his most successful year in movies in 2023, Jonathan Majors faced larger issues as he confronted charges of domestic violence and assault. These charges have sparked concerns about both his career and the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Majors gained acclaim for his portrayal of Kang in Loki and was anticipated to play a significant role in upcoming projects. However, his arrest has resulted in severe consequences, including being dropped by his management company and PR representation. It remains uncertain how Disney and Marvel Studios will navigate this situation, but they may opt to await the resolution of the case before making any decisions.

The charges against Majors have generated uncertainty surrounding the depiction of Kang in the MCU. Speculation has arisen regarding the potential recasting of the role, although this would pose challenges due to the character’s multiple variants and Majors’ impressive performance. The impact of the charges also extends to projects like Loki Season 2 and the film Avengers: The Kang Dynasty, which may be influenced by Majors’ legal predicament.
