Jonathan Majors reveals he almost walked out of his first meeting with Marvel Studios

In an interview with Vanity Fair (via Deadline), Jonathan Majors revealed that he was just about to walk out of his first meeting with Marvel, as he had been waiting for too long and they were busy. Recalling the time, he told the publication, “I hope this doesn’t bite me in the a**, but I walked out of my Marvel general [meeting]. This was a long time ago. I had just gotten out of drama school and I’m running around town and I’m sitting in the office. I grew up in a very particular way and I don’t want to waste nobody’s time. So I got in there and they’re just busy. And I was like, ‘I’m supposed to be here, right?’ It got long and I went, ‘I’m just going to go. It’s cool. I’ll just go.’”

However, before he could walk out of the building, he was told that casting director Sarah Finn would come. So, Majors shared, that he stayed and had a chat with Finn. He also said that the conversation about him playing Kang happened three years after this incident.
