After being detained on suspicion of domestic abuse, “Ant-Man and the Wasp” actor Jonathan Majors and his talent management Entertainment 360 part ways as per reports received on Monday, April 17.
The Separation Reports
As per the Deadline reports, this split occurred three weeks after the “Creed III” actor’s arrest in late March in New York on allegations of assault and harassment.
But the actor’s ordeal does not end here, Majors’ old public relations agency, the Lede Company, has also fired him. The actor was dropped off the PR firm’s client list last month.
Neither Entertainment 360 nor the Lede Company responded to the reports circulating in the press.
Assault Case
On March 25, the 33-year-old actor was taken into custody in Manhattan and accused of assault and harassment after getting into an altercation with a 30-year-old woman. Majors was apprehended when New York police responded to a 911 call.
As per the police reports, the unidentified victim was taken to the hospital with “minor injuries to her head and neck”.
Legal counsel for Majors has disputed the authenticity of the alleged attack, asserting that there is proof to the contrary.
Following his detention, not only were Majors’ ads for the “Be All You Can Be” campaign of the United States Army withdrawn, but several filmmakers also shared their accounts of the actor’s “sociopathic” behavior. A former classmate of Majors at New York University, Tim Nicolai, a Broadway director and performer, was one of them.
In his statement, Nicolai called Major a psychopath and an abuser and added since almost everyone said that about him, it’s unfortunate that it took so long to report him.
Before his arrest, Majors was regarded as a rising talent in Hollywood. The actor was nominated for an Emmy for his performance in “Lovecraft Country”. He had significant parts in this year’s two spring blockbusters, “Creed III” and “Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania.”
