Marvel should ditch trying to find the next Thanos and focus on fully developing its individual villains.
The Big Picture It's no secret that the MCU has been under fire of late, with no shortage of issues keeping the Marvel / Disney executives up at night. The latest nightmare is The Marvel s, with Deadline reporting that early box-office projections are not good, lower than the opening weekend of the much-derided Eternals . There are many reasons why the MCU has fallen from grace, many of which have been discussed at length at Collider.
The slow build-up paid off, with Thanos coming out of the shadows to collect the Infinity Stones in Avengers: Infinity War, setting up a spectacular battle between the Avengers and the armies of the Mad Titan, one which ends with Thanos achieving his goal. In turn, that set up an even more spectacular battle between the Avengers and Thanos' forces in Avengers: Endgame, which resulted in Thanos and his armies being wiped away .
Then there is the major villain himself, Kang. The MCU has put all of their eggs in the Jonathan Majors/Kang basket, and so far that has proven to be a PR disaster. The actor's legal troubles have cast a pall over everything. A recent article in Variety notes that at a gathering in Palm Springs back in November, discussions were had about backup plans, including dropping Kang altogether in favor of another big bad, Dr. Doom.
