Jonathan Majors had to go through a torturous experience in the role of Kang

After the long-awaited wait for Phase 5 of the MCU, fans were finally able to witness Jonathan Majors in his prime physique in the role of Kang The Conqueror. But it seems that the actor had to go through absolute hell to attain the perfect physique for his grand entry into the MCU.

In an interview alongside Paul Rudd, the Lovecraft country actor stressed the difficulty of his intensive training schedule and exhausting diet for the role. The actor also shared his resentment towards those high-caloric shakes, including dense fibers and fats, which he had to gulp regularly for maintaining his enchanting physique.

Jonathan Majors isn’t afraid of exhausting transformation

But despite facing numerous challenges for the role, the 33-year-old wasn’t afraid of the transformation, as he was determined to achieve the look for the biggest villain of the MCU yet. Although Majors previously emphasized the fact that one should avoid the risk of hurting their body, he also emphasized the fact that discomfort isn’t always deliberately bad.

The actor stated that he was okay with the difficulties arriving in his path of achieving the desirable physique, as he was determined to nail the look for the most imposing villain of the MCU. He stated,

“No one should put themselves or their families in a place where they’re hurting, but your discomfort is not necessarily a bad thing. That’s growth. It’s not comfortable, but you’re here to save the world, aren’t you? Or take over the world.”

Apart from MCU, fans are excited to witness the enchanting body of Majors in the upcoming Creed threequel, where he will be starring alongside Michael B. Jordan and is expected to be bigger than ever. But it appears that the vigorous workout sessions and the fatiguing diet aren’t ending anytime soon for the actor, as his journey in the MCU has only begun.
