New details have emerged about Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania star Jonathan Majors' arrest this past weekend.
According to Deadline, the actor was the one who called 911 on Saturday evening after this alleged domestic dispute and it was when police arrived that the woman involved made those accusations against Majors. As a result, he was removed from the residence by the police and arraigned in front of a judge a few hours later.
While prosecutors sought a supervised release alongside a full order of protection, the judge instead granted a Limited Order of Protection and Majors was subsequently released.
While the Loki star's lawyer has insisted there's evidence that proves her client's innocence, the case hasn't been thrown out yet and, unless something drastic happens, Majors is expected back in court on May 8.
In the complaint from the Manhattan D.A.'s office, it's said that Majors is accused of "[striking] her about the face with an open hand, causing substantial pain and a laceration behind her ear...she observed the defendant grab her hand, causing swelling, bruising, and substantial pain to her finger. The defendant put his hand on her neck, causing bruising and substantial pain."
As for the specific charges the Majors is facing, we now know that those include several counts of assault in the third degree, a single count of aggravated harassment in the second degree, three counts of attempted assaults in the third degree, and one count of harassment in the second degree.
Again, Majors' lawyer maintains the 33-year-old's innocence and seems confident they have the necessary proof (including video footage) to clear his name.
The actor, who has been cast as the MCU's Kang the Conqueror and is expected to play a huge role in the Multiverse Saga, being exonerated is likely the only thing that will save his career. After all, Disney is unlikely to continue working with Majors if he's eventually found guilty of these accusations.
As we write this, neither Disney nor Marvel Studios have issued any sort of statement.
