The actor Jonathan Majors has been arrested in New York City after being accused of assaulting a 30-year-old woman. A rep for the actor has denied the allegations, stating that “he has done nothing wrong, we are looking forward to clearing his name and clearing this up“.
The details of the incident
The woman who accused Majors was taken to the hospital, where minor injuries were found to her neck and head. A preliminary investigation report noted that Majors was involved in an incident of domestic violence with her and what “The victim reported to police that she had been assaulted. Officers took the 33-year-old male into custody without incident. The victim sustained minor head and neck injuries and was taken to an area hospital in stable condition.“.
Among the possible charges that the actor recently seen in titles such as ‘Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania’ and ‘Creed 3’ could face are those of strangulation, assault and harassment. There is speculation about the possibility that the victim is his girlfriend and that the altercation started after discovering that Majors was messaging with another woman, but this point is not confirmed.
The actor was transferred to prison but he was released shortly after despite the fact that the police considered that they had sufficient evidence against him. It is not at all clear how the matter is going to be resolved, but what is clear is that this has jeopardized his future at Marvel, where he gives life to Kang, the great villain of Phase 5 of this superhero universe.
