In a recent development, actor Jonathan Majors has been found guilty on two counts in a domestic abuse case, comprising one misdemeanor assault charge and one count of harassment. Notably, he was acquitted of two other charges related to assault and aggravated harassment. Despite the conviction, legal analysts are downplaying the likelihood of Majors serving time behind bars.
The sentencing for Jonathan Majors is scheduled for two months from now, with experts suggesting that, being his first conviction, he might receive a sentence of three years of probation, along with anger management and potential community service. It’s worth noting that the assault charge carries a maximum jail sentence of up to one year.
In response to the guilty verdict, Jonathan Majors’ attorney hinted at the possibility of appealing the ruling. The impact of the conviction on Majors’ career is evident, as Marvel Studios swiftly severed ties with the actor, dropping him from all upcoming projects. This move comes as a significant blow to Majors, who had been poised for a substantial role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), including an Avengers film centered around his character, Kang the Conqueror.
