The actor Jonathan Majors was arrested Saturday in New York on charges of strangulation, assault and harassment, authorities said.
New York City police said that Majors, star of the recently released “Creed III" and “Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania,” was involved in a domestic dispute with a 30-year-old woman. Police responded around 11 a.m. to a 911 call inside an apartment in the Manhattan neighborhood of Chelsea.
“The victim informed police she was assaulted," a spokesperson for the NYPD said in a statement. "Officers placed the 33-year-old male into custody without incident. The victim sustained minor injuries to her head and neck and was removed to an area hospital in stable condition.”
He was no longer in police custody as of Saturday night, the NYPD spokesperson confirmed to The Associated Press. A representative for Majors denied any wrongdoing by the actor.
disney dropped johnny depp from the pirates of the caribbean movie only because amber heard alleged he abused her. depp's reputation was ruined before he even had a trial! we all know how that trial turned out.
what will disney do regarding jonathan majors? will the management fire him based on accusations by the woman who claimed the abuse? i don't think firing a person and ruining a person's reputation based on accusations alone is wise or fair.
on the other hand, if majors did try to strangle her and hit her as she has alleged, he deserves to be fired.
I did not know who Jonathan Majors was until my uncle mentioned him to me a few months ago. He is a rising star, and now it seems that star has already been dulled.

The US Army suspended its new recruiting campaign just rolled out in time for the NCAA tournament ratings that is built around Majors as the onscreen narrator.
For Marvel, Majors, as the next big thing doing different aspects of the Kang character in every outing, a third due in Loki's second season on Disney+, was supposed to be the franchise draw. Having different actors take those roles breaks their entire ideal.
After Chadwick Boseman and William Hurt I'm sure Marvel had contingency plans in place. Now the question is of how long they can wait. So Major's legal/publicity team is going all out to say they have proof and to quash New York's prosecution. It is a matter of when Marvel's production schedule demands going ahead.
As I understand it Majors' team says she did along with security video of the incident and the statement of other witnesses. But New York is going ahead with the case so there is no quick resolution in sight.
On Monday, Majors was dropped by his longtime management company, Entertainment 360. The specific reason the company parted ways with the actor it has represented for several years is not known, but according to Deadline, which first reported the break up, it is related to his personal behavior.
Entertainment 360’s decision to drop Majors was preceded by the actor’s PR team at The Lede Company, who dumped him as a client at some point in the last few weeks.
Marvel movie star Jonathan Majors is found guilty of harassing and assaulting ex-girlfriend in bust-up over flirty text message from another woman: Actor faces 12 months in jail after breaking her finger in SUV attack
The jury decided that the now-former Marvel actor was guilty of recklessly assaulting in the third degree and harassing in the second degree his former girlfriend. Jurors acquitted Majors of intentional assault in the third degree and second-degree aggravated harassment.
Prosecutors said Majors assaulted Jabbari after she read a romantic text message that had been sent to his phone by another woman as the pair rode inside the private car service SUV in March. Majors allegedly grabbed Jabbari’s hand so hard he fractured her middle finger and also allegedly struck her face with an open hand and pushed her into a vehicle. She was hospitalized for minor injuries and documented them in photos that were shared with the jury.
Earlier in the case, each charge was tied to a specific action, such as the allegation of Majors twisting Jabbari’s arm back or fracturing her middle finger. However, before the trial, prosecutors decided to group the charges together in the more general terms of inside and outside the car...
