Jonathan could spend a year behind bars. The local media reported that he did not respond to the verdict. The sentencing date is set for February 6.
Allegations:
According to Grace, Jonathan left her in “excruciating” pain, with a wound behind her ear, bruises, and a fractured finger. Grace stated that he had physically assaulted her when she discovered he was having an affair, leading to his arrest in late March.
Jonathan got a text message from a different woman as he and Grace were leaving a party. Grace was in agony as Jonathan held her tightly while she reached for his phone to read the text. The Hollywood Reporter claims that Marvel has already engaged Loki’s creator to rewrite an early draft of the movie that was initially supposed to be titled The Kang Dynasty. Avengers 5 is the latest working title for the film, sources told the outlet.
Repercussions of the allegations:
Along with Jonathan’s removal from the MCU, the star also had to face other repercussions. Following Majors’ arrest, the release of Magazine Dreams, an upcoming film that was being hailed as a potential Oscar contender, was also delayed. As soon as the news leaked, the US Army also pulled the Creed III star from a significant ad campaign.
