Marvel has seemingly stuck by Jonathan Majors as he appears in the new “Loki” trailer, which was released on Monday, July 31. The trailer for the six-episode Marvel mini-series highlights Loki and Agent Mobius, and Majors can be seen upon mention of his villainous Marvel role, He Who Remains. Season 2 follows Loki and Agent Mobius’s investigation into the start of the multiverse unleashed by Loki’s variant Sylvie after she killed He Who Remains in Season 1.
The release of the trailer comes ahead of Majors’ trial on domestic violence charges that will begin in August. According to LA Times, he was arrested in March for misdemeanor charges of assault and harassment stemming from an alleged confrontation with his ex-girlfriend. His attorney has denied the allegations and released a video of the accuser uninjured and partying in a Manhattan nightclub hours after the incident.
Since then, an expose has unveiled a slew of allegations accusing Majors of abusing multiple ex-girlfriends and being violent on sets. It has been reported that he has lost out on several developmental projects, including a film adaptation of the Walter Mosley novel “The Man in My Basement” and the unannounced Fifth Season’s Otis Redding biopic, “Otis and Zelma”, according to Vulture.
Majors has received support from his current girlfriend, actress Meagan Good, while appearing for a court appearance in June. The strangulation charge was dropped and he pleaded not guilty to the other four counts. His trial is scheduled to begin on Thursday, August 3.
It remains unknown what the outcome of the trial will be, and how it will affect Majors' involvement with Marvel. He had a standout performance as Kang the Conqueror in “Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania,” and many are curious to see if he will continue his involvement with the franchise.
