• Jonathan Majors has been found guilty of assaulting his ex-girlfriend, Grace Jabbari
• This follows Jabbari's initial assault claims in March 2023, which subsequently led to Major losing several endorsements
• Moreover, the actor has been dropped from Marvel Studios over his assault case

Jonathan Majors has officially been charged with two counts of assault. The actor, loved for his role as Kang the Conquerer in several Marvel Studio films, has been convicted on charges of assault and harassment.

Jonathan Majors found guilty

After months of trial and online debates on Jonathan Majors and Grace Jabbari's assault case, the Lovecraft Country actor has been convicted of one count of reckless assault in the third degree and a charge of harassment.

According to SABC News, the jury's initial charges of two counts of assault and two counts of harassment were dropped.

Sentencing is set for 6 February 2024, with a possibility of a year in prison, though it has yet to be decided. In a statement reportedly released by Majors' attorney, Priya Chaudhry, she said she's disappointed in the verdict:

"It is clear that the jury did not believe Grace Jabbari’s story of what happened in the SUV; we are grateful for that. We are disappointed, however, that despite not believing Ms Jabbari, the jury nevertheless found Mr Majors was somehow reckless while she was attacking him."

According to The Shaderoom's Instagram post, the conviction led to Marvel Studios dropping Majors from any future projects, including Avengers: The Kang Dynasty, set to premiere in 2026.

"So, by her chasing him and hitting him, she faces no charges?"
