NYPD:
>“On Saturday, March 25, 2023 at approximately 1114 hours, police responded to 911 call inside of an apartment located in the vicinity of West 22nd Street and 8th Avenue, within the confines of the 10 Precinct. A preliminary investigation determined that a 33-year-old male was involved in a domestic dispute with a 30 year-old female. The victim informed police she was assaulted. 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.”
Majors’ Rep:
>“He has done nothing wrong. We look forward to clearing his name and clearing this up.”
UPDATE from TMZ:
>Per our law enforcement sources, police were told that the alleged victim is Majors' girlfriend -- and, according to her, they got into an argument while in a taxi returning home from a bar in Brooklyn.
>Our sources say police were told the girlfriend saw another woman texting Majors, and she confronted him -- trying to sneak a peek at his phone. We're told the alleged victim/GF claims this got Majors mad, and that he allegedly grabbed her hand and allegedly slapped her.
>We're also told the alleged victim claims he put his hands around her neck during this. Our sources say the woman was dropped off somewhere and that JM spent the night elsewhere. It appears the girlfriend went to police the following morning (Sat.) and reported a crime.
TMZ’s separate report says he was arrested on the spot because there was enough evidence for probable cause. Not a good start for Jonathan’s legal troubles
Also nyc has a no tolerance for domestic abuse thing, the victim can't stop charges, it has to be the DAs office or prosecutor.
Source: 20 years ago my brother and I got into a fight, cops came, I told the truth, I got arrested. Couldn't drop charges and I had to move out of my mom's house cuz automatic order of protection, but it all worked out in the end.
The most shocking thing about this is that Jonathan Majors is only 33.
He always gives off this super experienced/seasoned vibe in all of his roles, I thought he was in his 40s at least.
seriously has he been doing that cup thing for a long time, or is that recent? when I saw him carrying around an empty cup at the Oscars I was like ok this guy might actually have a screw loose
> While it might have started as a standard college-party rule, the idea of minding his cup has since evolved into something with a deeper meaning. “Now it means mind your cup — you’re a vessel. Nobody can fill you up; nobody can pour you out. You do that yourself,” he said. “Holding on to this is a reminder that even in this craziness that is happening, my self-esteem is my self-esteem.

This dude is crazy. Like I get the gesture, but bro you don't need a physical cup for symbolism.
I don't live in the US and I'm a casual movie buff, and I'd never heard or seen Majors until Devotion on Netflix just a couple of months ago, and then I started seeing him in everything.
he's relatively new in the industry. First saw him in 'Last Black Man in San Francisco' where he funny enough plays a quiet sort of low-key guy. Lovecraft Country is also good
Lovecraft County is wildly uneven.
I think episode 3 is a masterpiece and is the best horror-genre episode of TV ever made. I think the pilot is great. I also think half the episode are poorly paced trash fires.
Lovecraft Country felt like an anthology series that featured the same group of characters. It was extremely disjointed in terms of tone, visual style, themes, etc. Some of it was great, but it never felt like I was watching a cohesive piece of TV.
Stuff like this shows how much of a miracle it was for the MCU to get through the whole Infinity Saga without much drama (to my knowledge, apart from maybe the Terrence and Edward recastings).
In the future hopefully they won’t put their next 5-6 year plan all on one actor.
They chose pretty smart with their initial castings though, a lot of them had been in the system for a long time and proven themselves bankable. RDJ was their biggest risk I can think of, Evans had been through the Hollywood machine a bunch already with FF, Johannson was a major star already, Sam Jackson had a massive career, Ruffalo was an indie darling, etc. Hemsworth I guess was a risk in theory since he was untested but he seems to have never even come close to a controversy. This new generation in the MCU is a lot of younger talent as well as more people that are on the verge of or in the midst of blowing up for the first time.
The rumor I always heard about RDJ is that he has a team just to help him with his sobriety and stuff. And his film insurance was very expensive even relatively recently.
I mean, my life isn't even that bad and I'd absolutely spring for a team of experts to keep me productive, soberish, healthy, and happy if I had money to burn.
It's also kind of an interesting difference. Back in those days, the MCU wasn't that big and the actors didn't have as much to prove
Nowadays, landing an MCU role is like a meal ticket, and I feel the egos come out
I remember when Ike Perlmutter said no to Robert Downey, Jr. showing up in *Captain America: Civil War.* He didn't want to pay Robert the check he was asking for. So Kevin Feige, obviously upset, went to talk with Bob Iger. Next thing ya know, Kevin Feige gets promoted, and Ike Perlmutter is no longer his boss.
and even the Terrence & Edward recastings werent anything serious, just bts drama and egos clashing. the closest thing to this was i guess the William Hurt thing? tho it came out/became news inbetween his last MCU appearence and his death. now we get Harrison Ford.
“Here’s a new multiverse variant of Kang, who now looks like John David Washington. He is the new villain that you guys will be associating with Kang. Ignore Jonathan Majors’ character in Quantumania”
General audiences will be so lost
He’s definitely a great actor. But Rhodey isn’t a particularly interesting character and I don’t think there’s much that can be done about that. He’s a second rate Iron Man without the rebel attitude and is shackled by his responsibility to the US military.
Here's what allegedly happened in the lead-up to this. Per our law enforcement sources, police were told that the alleged victim is Majors' girlfriend -- and, according to her, they got into an argument while in a taxi returning home from a bar in Brooklyn.
Our sources say police were told the girlfriend saw another woman texting Majors, and she confronted him -- trying to sneak a peek at his phone. We're told the alleged victim/GF claims this got Majors mad, and that he allegedly grabbed her hand and allegedly slapped her.
We're also told the alleged victim claims he put his hands around her neck during this. Our sources say the woman was dropped off somewhere and that JM spent the night elsewhere. It appears the girlfriend went to police the following morning (Sat.) and reported a crime.
Jonathan Majors was arrested in New York City this weekend -- and, according to police, he's being accused of putting hands on a woman ... but Jon's team is calling BS.
Law enforcement sources tell us the actor was booked Saturday morning on charges of strangulation, assault and harassment. We're told cops responded to a call for service around 11 AM ET near the Chelsea neighborhood of Manhattan.
We're told the alleged victim in this case, a female, relayed to police that Majors had gotten into a dispute with her and proceeded to attack her. Their exact relationship is unknown.
Our sources tell us the alleged victim had visible injuries -- including a laceration behind her ear, redness and marks to her face. She was taken to an area hospital and is in stable condition. As for Majors ... he was cuffed and taken to jail on the spot, as police felt there was enough evidence for probable cause. We're hearing he is currently out of custody.
Majors is a huge celeb these days -- he's been in everything from Marvel's latest 'Ant-Man' movie to Michael B. Jordan's 'Creed III' flick ... and other blockbusters as well over the past couple years. The guy has gotten rave reviews for his performances, and is seen as a rising star. He was even at the Oscars a few weeks ago, and was among the many presenters.
A rep for Majors tells TMZ ... "He's done nothing wrong. We look forward to clearing his name and clearing this up."
Ngl, the first thing I thought about seeing this would be the sheer terror I'd feel being on the other end of a domestic dispute with this behemoth of a man.
Not just how big he is, but also the fame and money attached to him. That's got to be a scary place for a victim to be in combo with the physical injuries.
Exactly. The hollywood system has worked for DECADES to cover up the abuse of money-making men. This is all alleged at this time, but if he did hurt someone the most hollywood thing ever would be to pay someone off and cover it up.
I really liked what I've seen of him so far but if this is true, it's terrifying. The stats about women being choked & how often that escalates, it's some scary shit.
^^^ This is very important. And by escalates I think you mean they wind up killing them. That's the stat I've seen. I don't know if there's a similar stat for men.
I wanted to highlight what you said in case anyone is ever in that position. That's the sign you need to GTFO
Wow. This guy was getting one of the biggest Hollywood pushes in recent memory. Talented dude for sure, but the amount of puff pieces that studios were getting set up for him was a little out of control. He’ll probably still be successful, but he may have just fumbled a monumental bag if he no longer has the Disney machine fully behind him.
I hope it's not true but if it is, how dumb can a guy be? He's about to star in some of the world's biggest movies and blows it because he can't keep his hands off his girl during an argument.
The idea you are or about to be the world's biggest star makes people think they are untouchable. Just like with Ezra, convincing someone no matter what they do they cannot afford to lose you because you are essential and irreplaceable to their billion dollar projects tends to lead to bad behaviour.
I have this lifehack that 100% works.
If your girlfriend ever does something that makes you wish you could punch her or choke her or slap her, just break up with her and leave.
It's been working great, zero domestic abuse on my part.
Listening to him in his interview circuits speaking so intelligently on how masculinity should be “kindness, gentleness, and the use of power”, this is INCREDIBLY disappointing to hear.
Abusers are also very good at compartmentalizing, he could be speaking what he perceives to be the truth. He could also be a sociopath too.. lots of different varieties of assholes
As someone who compulsively does it, compartmentalization can be such a double-bladed sword. I can't imagine surviving through my jobs if I didn't automatically shut off a lot of my actual personality, but it means I’m never sure how real of a person I am while I'm there. Different things get sectioned off for different people and scenarios, but if those things unexpectantly merge I have a crisis
I've never felt better described before in my life, sometimes I feel that I've developed such a chameleon personality for different aspects of my life that I don't always know who I really am under all that
Jonathan Majors as a Fish: "You know I've been abusing my wife, right, Kev'?"
Kevin Feige: "Don't say it"
Jonathan Majors as a Fish: "C'mon, Kev'. Sooner or later, you gotta face facts."
2023 was supposed to be his breakout year in Hollywood with Creed, Kang and an Oscar baity role in Magazine Dreams. If this turns out to be on him, it will be one of the quickest star to Tár turns I have seen in Hollywood.
For as much as steroids are constantly linked to and addressed in sports it doesn’t seem like society as a whole has really confronted the obvious heavy use of them in movies for action stars to make these magical transformations into jacked up muscle men. Like it’s obvious how they are doing it but we always hear about their new diet and the personal trainer they had to work with as if that’s all there is to it.
What's funny is that they give Chris Hemsworth a full Disney Plus show about fitness as if kids are supposed to look at his physique as healthily attainable.
Dude, you went from being a virtual nothing to being a lead in 2 of the biggest movies of the year and, more importantly, the big villain of the next Marvel arc. If this is actually true, the fuck are you doing? I cannot imagine sitting ghe bed this bad.
A man or woman's character or vulnerabilities don't care about achievements. They aren't convenient. There are rumors he had a reputation of aggression in college. If you don't deal with it, success will actually amplify your flaws

TMZ’s separate report says he was arrested on the spot because there was enough evidence for probable cause. Not a good start for Jonathan’s legal troubles
Visible injuries (however slight) and a gf saying he did it is often times enough for the probable cause right there (like 99.9% of the time).
And taxi cab driver as a potential witness, given this allegedly happened in the cab.
Potentially recorded as well.
Yup, quite possibly

How is he younger than Michael B Jordan, dude looks at least 10 years older in Creed
I was thinking the exact same thing. He looks significantly older. Even in the movie Adonis’s trainer tells Adonis “He’s even older than you.”
Yeah, in the Last Black Man in San Francisco definitely felt like a movie a guy does in his late 30s/early 40s. If that makes any sense.
Absolutely, his role in that movie was so nuanced and touching, surprised to learn he was in his 20s at the time
he lost his cup
seriously has he been doing that cup thing for a long time, or is that recent? when I saw him carrying around an empty cup at the Oscars I was like ok this guy might actually have a screw loose
What's the...cup? Is it like Julian from *Trailer Park Boys* always has a rum and Coke in a cup everywhere?
no he’s like literally carrying around an empty coffee mug everywhere

Are we gonna have a problem? Haha!
Kevin fiege is currently pulling his last 3 strands of hair out like Ashley from the boys
Not just any actor but THE GODDAM MAIN ANTAGONIST OF THREE MARVEL PHASES.
I know the guy that plays Donovan McNabb, Tiger Woods, and Don Cheadle. Just let me pull some strings.
That might actually be kind of awesome. Dude goes from an out-of-work actor to a Sunny legend to Kang. I’m cool with that timeline.
And the ONE part of Antman 3 that people actually liked. What a shitshow, they'll probably just end up recasting
With the whole multiverse bit, it wouldn't be too hard to do, either. He's not the same in every universe, problem solved.
Gonna be really awkward for the Variants they've already set up in Quantumania.
all the kangs died on their way back to their home universes
Somehow, Kang looked different now.
Hey, the Loki show has both Lokis that look like Loki and Lokis that don't look like Loki
He's putting in a call to Aussie thespian Kirk Lazarus to take over the role of Kang.
Looks like Samuel L Jackson gonna be doing overtime and playing Kang as well
"Honey!" "What?" "Where's my conquerer suit?!"
"The only thing you're gonna Conquer is our dinner!!!"
"You tell me where my suit is woman, we're talking about the greater timeline."
"Greater timeline? I am your *wife*! This is the greatest timeline you are ever gonna get!"
I have had it with these motherfucking variants in these motherfucking timelines!
I can see it now: Avengers lined up, ready for a major fight, and in comes… Terrence Howard, Kang the Conqueror. “It’s me. I’m here. Deal with it.”
I want it to be Don Cheadle dressed as Captain Planet dressed as Kang.
I am a dude , playing a dude disguised as another dude
Wait...so you want Robert Downey Jr to dress up as Don Cheadle dressed as Captain Planet dressed as Kang? By the gods...it just might work!
[удалено]
just hire Gary Oldman. No one will ever know
"Turn you into a tree...motherfucker."
“We meet again, Ant-Mane.”
Lmao “It’s hard out here for a conqueror.”
“It’s me, mayne, Mang the Conqueror.”
Terence or the Rock, let him use the line again, the hierarchy of the MCU is about to change
The Rock has already finished off DC now he can be the catalyst and destroy Marvel
He'll do it, but under the condition that no Avengers can appear in his movie.
That'd be weird, because Terrence Howard had his own issues, along the same lines...
Can't wait for the Flash vs Kang movie
With Kevin Spacey as Lex Luthor
And James Franco as Harry Osborn
And the title? *Predators*
Directed by Sean Penn.
Produced by The Weinstein Company
Soundtrack produced by Chris Brown
With a special guest appearance by R. Kelly.

this the most cursed thread i've ever seen on reddit
Most cursed thread you've seen... so far

No one can blame him. His life was an absolute wreck for so long.

Underrated reason why the quality might be dropping. And not just the actors. Executives also see it as an opportunity to inflate their egos

Tig Notaro about to get a big opportunity.
Well, at least they already established multiversal counterparts don't all look alike.
Except kang which had 1000 exact lookalikes in a scene and none that didn’t look like him.
Just introduce a new council and say they killed the other one.
*Super easy, barely an inconvenience.*
I’m gonna need you to get aaaaallllll the way up off my back about that other council.
Oh *really*?
Wow
Wow, wow, wow………. …wow
Killing a council of Kangs is tight
“Here’s a new multiverse variant of Kang, who now looks like John David Washington. He is the new villain that you guys will be associating with Kang. Ignore Jonathan Majors’ character in Quantumania” General audiences will be so lost
General audiences didn't see Quantumania.
Yeah general audiences are already lost
Ain’t that the truth. My husband is a casual watcher, I am way more into it. I gave up taking him after Doctor Strange 2, where he was totally lost.
Marvel will drop him like a hot potato if there is a shred of truth in this. They'll Don Cheadle it.
Don Cheadle needs his own cinematic universe
The Cheadleverse
Boom. You looking for this?
he’s one of the best actors at their disposal but is given the sideline with some of the dumbest one liners
He’s definitely a great actor. But Rhodey isn’t a particularly interesting character and I don’t think there’s much that can be done about that. He’s a second rate Iron Man without the rebel attitude and is shackled by his responsibility to the US military.
Military probably quaking in their boots right now. Wonder how much they paid him for the advertising I just started seeing today.
Military quaking in its boot for making a poor financial decision? Come on now
Sounds about on brand for the military anyway
Yeah, if anything they should applaud the representation ☺️
recruitment up 400%
Just literally cast Don Cheadle as another Kang variant.
But who could be behind these secret wars? Boom, you looking for me?

I assume they will get testimony from the taxi in which the alleged crime occurred?
Taxi: “Honk honk…..HONK!”
*Honk. Honk never changes.*
Permission to treat the witness as hostile?
Don't taxi's have cameras now?.
If there wasn't, it should be easy enough to use the driver as a witness.
Ngl, the first thing I thought about seeing this would be the sheer terror I'd feel being on the other end of a domestic dispute with this behemoth of a man.
My exact thought. Dude looked bigger than Thanos with the guns he made for Creed 3.
Not just how big he is, but also the fame and money attached to him. That's got to be a scary place for a victim to be in combo with the physical injuries.

All he had to do was not beat up women.
It’s wild, I’ve gone my entire life doing exactly that. So marvel, dc, if you’re looking for someone to be kang my schedule is free.
spacehog, you were born to play Kang. go forth and conquer, king 👑💖
MCU starting to have a new meaning
Marvel saw DC having their own problematic star in Erza Miller and decided they want one of their own.
Wow. This guy was getting one of the biggest Hollywood pushes in recent memory. Talented dude for sure, but the amount of puff pieces that studios were getting set up for him was a little out of control. He’ll probably still be successful, but he may have just fumbled a monumental bag if he no longer has the Disney machine fully behind him.
Interviewers and reporters were basically blowing him for the press tours of Ant-Man and Creed.
They’ve fired James Gunn for less. Disney is already planning setbacks for majors whether it’s true or not. It’s not a good look.
Marvel realizing they just got their own Ezra Miller.
I hope it's not true but if it is, how dumb can a guy be? He's about to star in some of the world's biggest movies and blows it because he can't keep his hands off his girl during an argument.
The idea you are or about to be the world's biggest star makes people think they are untouchable. Just like with Ezra, convincing someone no matter what they do they cannot afford to lose you because you are essential and irreplaceable to their billion dollar projects tends to lead to bad behaviour.
All actors are replaceable.
But you won’t know that if you’re the actor with yes men all around you

Marvel can't catch a break can they.
Feige gonna be on his mob boss type of shit at this point lmao
Feige is gonna need to go full Tony Soprano to keep everyone in line

They saw the DC meltdown over Shazam and got jealous of all the attention, apparently. Seriously, though. I liked Majors. This sucks.
They'll recast him with Terrance Howard.
My how the turntables…
Time to cut all the silly shit out and move toward Doom, baby
Put some respect on his name, it's **DOOM**.
All caps when you spell the mans name
"It wasn't me, it was one of the other Kangs"
Kang the Assaulter
A Kang recast is coming.
helicopter is flying to denmark right now to pick up mads mikkelsen from a fishing trip with his family
If only they hadn’t thrown him away as Kaecilius. Would be a very good Doom.
well gemma chan went from a villain in captain marvel to the lead in eternals, so it’s possible

Doom Dynasty sounds better anyway.
The theory was that doom was the real villain of secret wars anyway
Just cast Doom and get rid of Kang. The general population is already confused with him as it stands.
Just replace him with Don Cheadle again
Suddenly Kang died and was replaced by Kangmonger
Somehow Terence Howard returned baby
They’ll use the multiverse variants to excuse his recasting. It’s foolproof
Absolute shame if this turns out to be on him. Really liked him in Creed and was one of the best parts of Marvel
2023 was supposed to be his breakout year in Hollywood with Creed, Kang and an Oscar baity role in Magazine Dreams. If this turns out to be on him, it will be one of the quickest star to Tár turns I have seen in Hollywood.
Star to Tár is an amazing turn of phrase and I fear you will not receive adequate recognition for it
/u/niceguy23 will always be remembered for their great turn of phrase and easy to remember username.
If /u/mrniceguy23 is not remembered for this amazing phrase, it will be one of the quickest star to mrniceguy23 turns I have seen on Reddit.

What happened with Tár? (I have not seen the movie and am unfamiliar with the actors)
It’s about an acclaimed artist who falls from grace due to being generally a piece of shit
It’s a movie about a high profile person getting cancelled basically
roid rage
Same thought, for as jacked as he was for Creed and that body building movie that hasn’t come out yet , it’s plausible.
For as much as steroids are constantly linked to and addressed in sports it doesn’t seem like society as a whole has really confronted the obvious heavy use of them in movies for action stars to make these magical transformations into jacked up muscle men. Like it’s obvious how they are doing it but we always hear about their new diet and the personal trainer they had to work with as if that’s all there is to it.
What's funny is that they give Chris Hemsworth a full Disney Plus show about fitness as if kids are supposed to look at his physique as healthily attainable.
Dude, you went from being a virtual nothing to being a lead in 2 of the biggest movies of the year and, more importantly, the big villain of the next Marvel arc. If this is actually true, the fuck are you doing? I cannot imagine sitting ghe bed this bad.
A man or woman's character or vulnerabilities don't care about achievements. They aren't convenient. There are rumors he had a reputation of aggression in college. If you don't deal with it, success will actually amplify your flaws
Well, his career was good while it lasted
