The Perfect Kang Replacement: Not Doctor Doom, Henry Cavill as a Marvel Villain Only Makes Sense if He Plays This Multiversal Threat
Henry Cavill is someone fans cannot get enough of. Whether it is his stint with the DCEU as Superman or the titular role in Netflix’s The Witcher, Cavill has played every character to perfection. But after leaving behind both these fan favorite roles behind, the British actor is now looking for new avenues. And what better way to start a new journey than join the rival of the franchise that gave you the boot?
The Marvel Cinematic Universe is ever expanding. With new projects and new characters being added to the canon, there is no denying that the franchise is as big as they get. And Henry Cavill is an actor who has the range and capability to handle quite a few characters, that are allegedly being added to the MCU in the near future.

Whether it is Captain Britain or Hyperion – the Superman of the MCU – Henry Cavill can take on any role and make it his own if given the chance. But there are many other characters that can easily be taken over by The Tudors actor in the franchise. One such character is The Beyonder, which is currently being hyped to replace Kang the Conqueror in the MCU.

After the Jonathan Majors fumble that led to his contract being terminated by the MCU, rumors say that the franchise is looking to replace Kang altogether. After being found guilty in the abuse trial against his ex-girlfriend, Jonathan Majors was shown the door by Marvel executives. Since then, there are speculations and uncertainty regarding the character. While some believe MCU should just replace the actor and get someone else to fill in as Kang, others want to completely erase the character from the narrative in the future. But how does The Beyonder comes into this?
Henry Cavill Could Be Perfect as The Beyonder
With the superhero game in upheaval, Marvel is bearing the brunt of it all, especially with so many mediocre projects being released by the studio. After the blunder that was Ant-Man 3 and The Marvels, the MCU is in dire need of some change that can take them out of the slump. And what better way to change the landscape than introducing Henry Cavill to the scene!

The Beyonder is one of the most formidable villains from the Marvel Comics, and with Avengers: Secret Wars being the sixth movie in the Avengers storyline, Beyonder could be easily introduced to the story. In the comics, The Beyonder kidnaps a lot of the superheroes from the multiverse and brings them to Battleworld to fight it out against each other. And for that to come to life, Henry Cavill could be the perfect person to bring this character to life.
After playing heroes for quite a while, it will be interesting to see an actor of Henry Cavill‘s caliber play a villainous role. He has the looks and the ability to bring a magnanimous character like The Beyonder to life. And given the narrative, it will be not be necessary for the actor to sign a long-term contract either.
