Colman Domingo can't wait to star in a live-action MCU movie, but he definitely won't be doing it as Jonathan Majors' replacement as Kang, as some rumors seemed to indicate. A year after he denied having been cast as the new Kang, the Euphoria actor has offered further clarification into what really happened behind the scenes.

"Listen, after a while, when it was constantly in the press and places like Twitter, I was like: 'wait a minute, is this true? Am I being talked about for Kang?' So I literally called my team and asked: 'are you having conversations that I don't know anything about?' They were like, no," he recalled in a recent appearance in Josh Horowitz's podcast Happy Sad Confused.
