Jonathan Majors, the beloved Marvel star, has recently been in the news for all the wrong reasons. According to reports, he has been sued by his ex-girlfriend, British actress Grace Jabbari, after being convicted of assaulting her. The lawsuit was filed in a federal court on Tuesday and includes allegations of battery, assault, intentional infliction of emotional distress, malicious prosecution, and defamation.
In her court arguments, Jabbari claims that Majors subjected her to a pattern of domestic abuse that started in 2021 and continued until 2023. The documents provided by the PA news agency detail multiple acts of violence towards Jabbari. In response, a lawyer for Majors has announced that the actor is preparing counterclaims against Jabbari. They also stated that the lawsuit was no surprise to them.
This comes after Majors was found guilty of assaulting and harassing Jabbari in New York, although he continues to deny the allegations. He is set to be sentenced on April 8. Meanwhile, a lawyer for Jabbari has praised her bravery in holding someone with Majors' level of power accountable. They also expressed their belief that this lawsuit will bring Jabbari the justice she deserves.
In light of the verdict, Disney and Marvel studios have dropped Majors from their projects. He played Kang the Conqueror in the 2023 film Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, and also starred in the popular Disney+ series Loki. He was set to appear in multiple upcoming MCU titles, including an Avengers movie, but has now been dropped from all of them.
Majors' lawyer has stated that the actor looks forward to fully clearing his name. In December, he was found guilty of assault and aggravated harassment by a six-person jury. He faces up to a year in prison, although he was acquitted on one count of assault and another count of aggravated harassment.
