Title: Jonathan Majors Dropped by Marvel Studios and Management After Convictions – Full Story Revealed
What are the crimes Jonathan Majors has been convicted of?
Jonathan Majors was convicted of assault and harassment against his ex-girlfriend, Grace Jabbari. A jury of six acquitted him of one count of assault and one count of harassment. The shamed Creed III actor received the verdicts following a grueling two-week trial in Manhattan. The Manhattan District Attorney’s Office stated that the evidence presented in court uncovered a “cycle of psychological and emotional abuse and escalating patterns of coercion” by Majors. The incident, which resulted in Grace sustaining a broken finger, as well as a swollen arm and ear, took place inside a hired car in March. Grace testified that Majors initiated the attack after she took his phone upon discovering messages from another woman. She described the actor’s “violent temper” and instances where he would “explode” into a rage. Prosecutor Kelli Galaway mentioned in court that Grace had “shaped herself” to please Majors and avoid triggering his anger.
When will Jonathan Majors be sentenced?
The sentencing for Jonathan Majors was originally scheduled for February 6, 2024, but it has been postponed to April 8. Marvel Studios and Walt Disney have decided to part ways with Majors in light of his convictions. Along with these corporations, his management company and several other companies and PR firms have also severed ties with him. Additionally, his anticipated role in “Avengers: The Kang Dynasty,” set to premiere on May 1, 2026, has been canceled.
How long could Jonathan Majors’ prison time be?
The assault and harassment convictions against Majors are considered misdemeanor crimes, which typically do not lead to a sentence exceeding one year in prison. The sentencing guidelines are yet to be determined as prosecutors are formulating their argument. On March 19, 2024, Grace Jabbari filed a new lawsuit in a New York federal court, alleging battery, assault, intentional infliction of emotional distress, malicious prosecution, and defamation. This legal action comes after Majors denied accusations of abuse in a Good Morning America interview, refuting the claims made against him.
