Jonathan Majors, known for his roles in hit films such as “Lovecraft Country” and “The Harder They Fall,” is finally going to trial for allegedly roughing up his ex-girlfriend, Grace Jabbari. The trial, which has faced several delays, is scheduled to begin on Wednesday in New York City.
Majors was arrested and charged in the spring with misdemeanor assault and harassment after Jabbari claimed that they got into an argument in March, during which he physically harmed her in a car, resulting in injuries. However, Majors has consistently denied these allegations, asserting that he was the one who was hurt in the altercation.
Over the past several months leading up to the trial, various pieces of information, photos, and videos have been leaked. Majors’ camp claims that this evidence shows Jabbari seemingly uninjured and enjoying a night out on the town after the supposed attack. Additionally, a police report from London, which was taken six months prior to the incident between Majors and Jabbari, has been entered into the court docket. The report, which has been sealed until now, has sparked curiosity and speculation about possible previous incidents involving Majors.
Media outlets have filed motions to have the London report made public, and a judge is expected to address this motion before the trial begins. The content of the report and its connection to the case remain unknown.
While the trial will shed light on the evidence prosecutors have against Majors, it is also an opportunity for the public to hear about past allegations involving other women. If the judge allows it, these allegations could be brought up during the trial.
Throughout this ordeal, Majors has been involved in a new romantic relationship with actress Meagan Good. The couple has been seen together at court appearances and in public, presenting a united front. Good has not publicly addressed her involvement with Majors or provided details about her support for him.
Professionally, Majors’ career has suffered due to the accusations made by Jabbari. He has lost film and TV opportunities, but his role in Marvel’s upcoming projects has been maintained, at least for now. However, other completed films of his have been put on hold, leaving his future in the industry uncertain.
As the trial begins, both the prosecution and defense will present their arguments and evidence. A jury will then have the opportunity to hear the case and make a judgment on the allegations against Majors. The trial will not only determine his legal fate but also have significant implications for his personal and professional life.
