Kang Actor Reveals Ambitions on MCU Future

Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania star Jonathan Majors discussed his legacy as Kang the Conqueror in the new issue of Total Film, as well as his ambitions to achieve the same name status as Denzel Washington and Sidney Poitier.

“What’s been gifted, what’s been earned… I’m participating in that and moving it forward… I think about Sidney Poitier. It’ll be on me to build the next thing, you know? I’ve got a long way to go, but I will only be ripped and 6ft for so long. There will be individuals coming behind me, and I have to challenge them now, you know?”

“Hopefully, what we do with The Kang Dynasty; what we do in the MCU; what we do in these Adonis movies… Hopefully, they go, ‘That is now the pole star. That is what we’re aiming for now’. In the same way, I looked at Denzel [Washington] and Sidney Poitier and Philip Seymour Hoffman and Meryl Streep and Daniel Day-Lewis, and went, ’I’m going there.’”
