Yeah… dropping him 3 weeks after this all went down makes me think they know more as time’s gone by.

And it likely ain’t good.

Just check the Marvel executive offices for bricks clogging all the toilets and you'll likely have your answer.

So, even though the woman recanted her story it appears the state is still pressing through with possible charges. Man, this looks like it will totally tank his career as it was taking off.

Former alleged abuse victims (plural) coming forward to bolster the DA’s case against Majors’ violent behavior.


This probably explains everyone and their mother dropping him yesterday.

It doesn't surprise me that more have come forward. There were some rumbling on twitter the day the initial charges came out that made it sound like it wasn't isolated. I was taking them with a gain of salt though until we got more. Looks like they could be legit.

Even if he is cleared in this situation his image and reputation have taken hits they may not recover from for some time. Roles have been lost, representation has been dropped, he has been uninvited from charity events, and he has had to step aside from the board of the Gotham Film & Media Institute and his work on behalf of the Sidney Poitier Initiative.

Jonathan Majors twisted his accuser's arm and shoved her backward into a car, prosecutors now allege in domestic violence case​


New details in the domestic violence allegations against Jonathan Majors were revealed by Manhattan prosecutors Tuesday morning.

According to new charging details about the alleged March incident, Majors pulled the victim's middle finger, "causing bruising, swelling, and substantial pain."

Major's accuser also said the "Creed III" and Marvel star grabbed her "right arm, [placed] it behind my body, and use his hands to twist my right forearm and right middle finger, causing substantial pain to my right forearm and right middle finger."

The charging document also alleges Majors hit the victim with his hand on her right ear and caused a cut, and that he pushed her into a car using both of his hands, causing her to fall backward.

Majors has said through his lawyers that he is innocent. One of Majors' lawyers, Priya Chaudhry, refuted the allegations outside of court on Tuesday, Deadline reported.

"We have provided the District Attorney with irrefutable evidence that the woman is lying, including video proof showing nothing happened, especially not where she claimed," she said. "We did this with the explicit promise from the DA that they would not 'fix' their case and change it as we proved the woman is lying."

"This is a witch hunt against Jonathan Majors, driven by baseless claims," Chaudhry continued.

"Instead of dismissing the allegations in the face of the woman's clear lies, the DA has adjusted the charges to match the woman's new lies. To be clear, there are no new charges against Mr. Majors."
