The Marvel Cinematic Universe has finally decided its fate for Kang the Conqueror for the rest of The Multiverse Saga's run. As Marvel Studios is building closer to their next set of Avengers movies, the franchise has had a tricky situation hanging in the air for several months. Following Jonathan Majors' firing after his trial resulted in a guilty verdict, Marvel Studios have been fairly quiet on what they are going to do with the Kang character, given that he is the central antagonist of The Multiverse Saga.

With Marvel Studios boss Kevin Feige present at Hall H, Kang's fate has officially been determined, as Robert Downey Jr. is replacing him. However, the Iron Man star will be playing Doctor Doom, who is set to appear in Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars, seemingly ending Kang's time in the MCU.
