Actor Jonathan Majors‘ starpower was steadily growing over the last few years, thanks to starring roles in blockbusters like Creed III and Ant-Man 3. But things came a screeching halt when Majors was charged with assault and more in March related to a confrontation with his ex. After appearing in court his month, a verdict on the charges has offically been decided.
Jonathan Majors’ legal issues have been playing out in front of the public’s eyes, with fans especially curious given his ongoing role in the MCU. THR has revealed the verdict of his trial against ex Grace Jabbari, and he’s been found guilty in third degree assault, as well as harassment. He is also “found not guilty of one of the counts in assault in the third degree”, as well as aggravated harassment in second degree. Majors is expected to be sentenced in the New Year on February 6th.
Since he was charged with a number of different counts, this verdict is a mixed bag for the 34 year-old actor. But Majors’ legal team has been working hard, and this is likely not the outcome they were hoping for. But he was found innocent of two, and guilty for the other two.
The verdict was reportedly made after a six-person jury deliberated for over four hours. Majors’ girlfriend Megan Goode was reportedly there supporting him as the verdict was revealed. Only time will tell how serious the punishment ends up being, and how the court’s ruling ultimately impacts his career moving forward.
