Jonathan Majors has teased a return to Marvel after being dropped by Disney over his domestic violence arrest in an exclusive interview with The U.S. Sun.

The actor had several Marvel multiverse projects already in production when he was fired by Disney following his assault and harassment conviction.

In the years since his December 2023 firing, Jonathan, 36, has not been a part of any major projects in film or television.

However, a rumor circulated this month that Jonathan would reprise his role as Kang the Conqueror in an upcoming movie.

When asked about reports that he is making a big return to Marvel, Jonathan and wife Meagan Good, who was happily by his side, noticeably grinned ear-to-ear.

"I cannot say anything about that,” he told The U.S. Sun at the Daytime Beauty Awards in Los Angeles on Sunday, trying to play coy but unable to hide his smile.

When asked if there is a future Kang project specifically for him in the works, he again tried to play coy but teased it by saying: "Well it's a multi-verse, so there's always that.

“Always a lot of opportunity for that,” he spilled, before adding that he was “very glad" to hear that some fans want him back.

The U.S. Sun has reached out to Disney for comment.

Jonathan was fired by Marvel in December 2023 after a jury in a New York City court found him guilty of misdemeanor assault and harassment in a domestic violence case involving his ex-girlfriend, Grace Jabbari.

He was sentenced to complete a 52-week domestic violence intervention program and was also sentenced to probation, but avoided jail time.

Following the conviction, Marvel scrapped plans for several projects where they had planned on making Kang the central villain of the franchise and had to rewrite multiple scripts.

Jonathan had starred as Kang in the Marvel juggernaut, Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, alongside Paul Rudd and Michael Douglas.

In addition to being dropped by Marvel, Jonathan also lost out on multiple campaigns and other films he was linked to starring in.

The actor was garnering Oscar buzz for playing a social outcast body builder in the film, Magazine Dreams, which came out in 2023.

However, following his domestic violence arrest, the studio forfeited any chance of getting an Oscar statue by postponing the film’s release and ultimately cutting ties with Jonathan all together.
