Initially cast as the lead in Marvel’s “Avengers: The Kang Dynasty” after his portrayal of the villain Kang the Conqueror in 2023’s “Ant-Man,” Majors faced professional repercussions due to the conviction.
Future Aspirations and Reflections
Expressing a desire to return to Hollywood, Majors contemplated the prospect of receiving a second chance, expressing hope for an opportunity for redemption in the eyes of others.
