When asked his reaction to Robert Downey Jr replacing him as the new MCU villain, Jonathan Majors simply said, “Heartbroken.” He continued, “Of course. I love Kang. Doctor Doom is wicked, though.”

When asked if he feels it’s fair that Robert gets another chance by Marvel despite being arrested in 1996 for possession of drugs (heroin & cocaine) and carrying around a firearm (unloaded gun), the ‘Kang: The Conqueror’ actor said, “I think it’s fair that Mr Downey is being and has been greeted with patience and curiosity and love, and being allowed to work (his) art and be creative at that level. I didn’t really get that.”
