Jonathan Majors reflects on the sequel’s bad reviews

Shake it off, Jonathan. You were far and away the best part of the film!

From JoBlo Movies:

“Upon its release, Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania became one of the worst-reviewed Marvel Cinematic Universe movies on Rotten Tomatoes. Reviews aren’t everything, but it’s not a great start to Marvel’s new phase. While critics took issue with many elements in Quantumania, most had plenty of praise for Jonathan Majors. The actor plays Kang the Conqueror, who is destined to be the big bad of the Multiverse Saga.

While speaking on IndieWire’s Screen Talk podcast, Jonathan Majors doesn’t seem bothered by the bad reviews which Quantumania has received. “It doesn’t change how I see myself, period. It’s all data,” Majors said. “I’m a performance within a story. One thing I will say to my team as we’re leaving a premiere if they’re reading reviews, I’ll say, ‘How’s the movie doing?’ I try to clean my plate and take care of my part. The response is: ‘You’re straight. You’re good. They like you.’ And they tell me about the movie. Sometimes the movie is also on that level, and sometimes [it’s not].““
