Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania writer Jeff Loveness has been doing the press rounds to promote the latest Marvel Studios adventure, but talk (understandably) tends to turn to his script for Avengers: The Kang Dynasty.
Loveness has already mentioned certain characters that "probably" won't appear (more here), and has now hinted at a couple of heroes that most likely will factor into the next big MCU event film.
While chatting to the Phase Zero podcast, Loveness started by choosing his words carefully when asked about the characters he's excited to write for in The Kang Dynasty, but by mentioning certain actors, he's basically let the cat(s) out of the bag!
“I can’t say specifically," he began. "I think I’d get in trouble. I gotta get better at talking to the Internet. But just, characters that we like, I mean, I think we’re excited for the actors more than even the characters right now. Because, we have this really good crop of performers. We got Florence Pugh, and Jonathan Majors, and Letitia Wright. We’ve got such a deep bench of really good actors. Everyone’s gonna get their chance to shine. I can’t say who. I can’t say when they will shine. But I think we’ve got a deep bench, and it’s fun to finally put everybody into the game.”
We pretty much assumed that the new Black Panther would be involved in The Kang Dynasty, anyway, and Yelena Belova is expected to take on a leadership role in The Thunderbolts, who will likely play a significant part in combatting The Conqueror's Variants themselves.
Still, it's interesting to learn which specific characters Loveness is most looking forward to writing for.
Rumors and supposed "leaks" aside, we really don't know what to expect from the culmination of The Multiverse Saga, but the upcoming Disney+ shows should give us a better idea.
