NEW MCU RUMORS! Marvel Is About To Go Crazy and DARK!
Is Kang replacing Thanos?
The Marvel Cinematic Universe is setting up a new villain to take Thanos' place, and it is surprisingly not Kang. Kingpin might seem like just a crime lord from New York City, but he actually draws plenty of similarities to the Mad Titan.
In his last opportunity to escape, he had a brutal duel against Ant-Man, which resulted in Kang being shrunken and decimated by his own Engine Core, though his death inadvertently alerted the Council of Kangs about people interacting with the Multiverse, prompting them to take their own measures.
Galactus would win. Why? Because he is way more powerful than Kang lmao, Kang's only option is to get unimaginably powerful technology that can at least match Galan, somehow make him not be able to feed, or simply get an army or another powerful entity from another time/universe.
Marvel may recast Kang amid doubts about his viability as a villain, and Galactus would be a formidable alternative for MCU Phase 6. Galactus is a massive and well-known Marvel villain, with potential to be a recurring threat unlike Kang, ensuring a greater impact.
Prior to his appearance in Quantumania, though, Majors made his MCU debut in the Season 1 finale of Loki, playing one (of many) variants of his villain Kang the Conqueror named He Who Remains.
Although Jonathan Majors' Kang the Conqueror officially makes his debut in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, several of his variants from Marvel Comics have also made their ways to the MCU.
The Avengers could spot Doctor Doom among them, who claimed that the Avengers had "cornered" them at a point where their powers were at their greatest, which implied that this Doctor Doom was actually a future Kang, too.
Avengers 5 is reportedly set to start filming next January and keep its release date in May 2026. It will reportedly not be an IW-level team up and instead focus on a smaller team of Avengers without the FF or some of the other heroes introduced in this Saga.
In the feature films of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Morgan Stark is the name of Tony Stark and Pepper Potts' daughter, who in the 2019 film Avengers: Endgame, is played by Lexi Rabe.
If Marvel wants to raise the stakes after Thanos and Kang, there is no better way to bring Annihilus. Like Thanos, Annihilus is a cosmic threat who is more than willing to destroy the universe in his quest for control.
This storyline saw Kang try and rewrite time in his own image but was tempted into battle with his old enemy Khonshu. It's left up to Moon Knight, Khonshu's avatar, to fix time and defeat Kang the Conqueror, which he does very effectively.
History. Dormammu allied himself with Baron Mordo, Abomination, Cobra and staged an attack against their former master Kang the Conqueror, several years after Kang had conquered the world. Kang found himself unable to defeat Dormammu and fled back to prevent the formation of this reality.
While Kang has proven able to defeat extremely powerful heroes on his own before, that's usually because he has some prior knowledge. Kang wouldn't know any of Superman's weaknesses and that will be a huge problem for Kang. Superman's powers are just too formidable for Kang to be able to handle.
Mjølnir: Thor was wielding the magical Uru hammer, which he had lost when he was banished from Asgard. However, before Thor could retrieve the Mjølnir from S.H.I.E.L.D., he was killed by Hawkeye.
Robert Downey Jr is open to returning to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In an interview with Esquire, the actor said he'd happily play Tony Stark aka Iron Man in future movies if Marvel gods want him to.

Galactus was killed by Thor during the "Herald of Thunder" story arc in Thor (vol. 6) #1–6 (March–August 2020), and reappeared after a two-year hiatus in Fantastic Four (vol. 6) #45 (July 2022)—the final issue of the event "Reckoning War"—where Galactus is resurrected by his former heralds.
So, it's not outside the realm of possibility for Evans to reprise his role as Captain America or Human Torch in Avengers: Secret Wars, especially considering the actor has expressed that he's more willing to return as his Fantastic Four character than the Star Spangled Man with a Plan.
Though no plans to bring back Robert Downey Jr. as Iron Man have been announced, Tony Stark's legacy is still being felt in the MCU. Riri Williams, who appeared in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever and will be the lead character in the upcoming Ironheart series, is in many ways a direct successor to Tony.
