The villain is black
I'm honestly surprised it hasn't been mentioned on this board at all that the villains in the last two MCU movies (including one who is supposed to be the big bad of this era) are insane, irredeemable assholes, both played by black men.

Im surprised the social justice crowd isn't pissed off about it. Seems like they'd be throwing a fit.
Also, fans are not stupid, they appreciate a well-acted villain and a black actor getting a villain role is an opportunity to show off acting chops.

There was some discussion about Kang the Conqueror being black, since he's supposed to be a descendant of Reed and Sue Richards. Turns out they never really specify how far of a descendant he is, so whatevs. It's plausible. I still don't like race swaps but I'm not going to pretend this is some major, beloved character with a huge following of people who are going to be put off by this casting.
With High Evolutionary, isn't he an alien? Not sure it's possible to race swap an alien, and again I don't think this was some beloved character people have an image of ingrained in their minds. The actor did a fantastic job. To me, I'll picture him when I think of High Evolutionary.

In my opinion, this guy was head and shoulders better than Jonathan Majors turn as Kang.

Just like with Nick Fury, nobody cares that these characters are black bc to the casual fan, these are new characters and not shoehorned race swaps.
