Loki head writer Michael Waldron has talked about those 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kang the Conqueror and Thanos comparisons.

Jonathan Majors appeared in the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Loki finale ahead of his role in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quauntumania as Kang the Conqueror. Though Majors was actually playing 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:He Who Remains in the series, the final moments of the episode revealed a more sinister Variant of the character had taken control of the TVA – Kang.

when asked if Majors' character could eventually become "Thanos-level big".

"The exciting thing about getting to originate that character on the page in the MCU was creating a totally different energy than what Thanos is, which is very measured, principled, almost monk-like in his evil aspirations, and obviously He Who Remains, it's a much more squirrelly, chaotic, narcissistic presence, so that was a lot of fun," Wal𒉰dron added.

Kang definitely has potential as the next Thanos-style villain, considering his time-travel capabilities. With him in charge of the TVA, who have been shown to wield a considerable amount of power over the Sacred Timeline, the heroes of the MCU should certainly start getting worried about the threat emerging in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Marvel Phase 4.

澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Loki season 2 has been confirmed, which means we'll most likely be seeing the fallout of Sylvie's decision to kill He Who Remains sooner r൲ather than꧂ later. Whether Loki returns before or after Ant-Man and the Wasp 3 releases in February 2023 is unclear at this point, though.

The next Marvel project on the release slate is What If…?, which lands on 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Disney Plus this August 11. Until then, check out how to watch 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Marvel movies in order to get up to speed on the MCU.
