Avengers: The Kang Dynasty to be scrapped? Writer Jeff Loveness confirms Marvel is moving away from Kang

The chaos at the Marvel Cinematic Universe is just getting intensified, with no scope for fading at the moment. While The Marvels has failed to create any dent with its opening , and has mixed reviews from the audience and critics, there is also a Jonathan Majors controversy haunting the studio every day. There has been a whole lot of debate and speculation around one movie that has Majors as the titular character, and that is Avengers: The Kang Dynasty. The most significant update about it today is that it might get scrapped. 

Ever since Majors got accused of harassment, everyone has been wanting to know how the studio would react to the news and what actions they will take if he is proven guilty. The court proceedings so far have not been in the favour of Jonathan, and that has probably made Marvel Studios smell the tea. Jeff Loveness, known for Ant-Man And The Wasp Quantumania , was hired to shape the script of Avengers: The Kang Dynasty.

Turns out, now Jeff Loveness has confirmed that he is not associated with the film and to Marvel at this point. He confirmed that he was too wrapped up in the Kang storyline and that Marvel is moving away from it. Does this mean Avengers: The Kang Dynasty might get scrapped altogether? Well, the possibility is very high.
