The recent turn of events concerning Loki season 2’s Kang actor Jonathan Majors has his supporters arguing the Creed III star may be owed an apology if the claims and evidence from his criminal lawyer Priya Chaudhry pan out in their favor on the trial day. The Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania star was arrested on assault charges on March 25, and the scandal developed in April – when multiple women alleging abuse by the Marvel star were reported to be cooperating with the Manhattan district attorney’s office.
With a trial date set for August 3, Jonathan Majors’ assault case is all set to play out in front of a jury, the same month when Marvel Studios may have to begin marketing Disney’s Loki season 2 for its Oct release, as The Direct states. Though so far, MCU projects featuring Majors appearances have been delayed like the Assembled special for Ant-Man 3.
Rumors also indicate Disney’s changes to its release calendar for Avengers: The Kang Dynasty and the decision to back out of SDCC could be related to Majors’ ongoing misdemeanor case. But Majors’ supporters are choosing to see the silver lining in the ongoing abuse scandal since Insider shared details from the defense evidence collected by Lawyer Chaudhry.
Jonathan’s lawyer has presented multiple video surveillance which they claim are, “proof that this is a complete lie.” The claims by Ms. Jabbari, Majors’ then girlfriend who was allegedly assaulted by strangulation, left with a broken finger and laceration on her ear are being countered by Priya Chaudhry as a racist arrest by the NYPD.
“y’all gonna feel bad if jonathan majors is innocent” actually im gonna be relieved that a man isn’t a abuser and a woman wasn’t abused but okay

If it does turn out that Jonathan majors is innocent, that still doesn’t negate the fact you should believe victims first.

Marvel star Jonathan Majors is due in a NYC court Tuesday on domestic assault charges. Grace Jabbari says he broke her right middle finger in a midnight fight on a Chinatown corner. Watch her right hand 3 hours later, as she climbs a dance club staircase (she’s on the right) 🧵 pic.twitter.com/vj9qMDbsQp

So according to the actual evidence, Jonathan Majors ex girlfriend tried to unalive herself after he broke up with her and when he found her unconscious in his crib after seeing her su*c*de texts he called for help to save her life but they arrested that man anyway.

IF Jonathan Majors is indeed innocent I’m going back to block everybody on Twitter who tried to put this man under just from a woman’s side of the story. https://t.co/pVRDGq9E1n

Also she never wanted it go to court. She tried to recant (but bc of how much victims are threatened into recanting the state went ahead) and said it was her fault for being hurt.
Jonathan Majors called her crazy, said she had a l breakdown and tried to ruin her in the media. https://t.co/ayBKBdsrRp

The third parties involved during the incident such as the driver that drove Majors and Jabbari are ready to testify, as well as the bartender who saw Jabbari at the pub after their incident at the car. The insider also states the video cam footage from the nightclub where Jabbari was partying after the altercation shows her with “no signs of having an injury to her right hand”.
Going by social media reactions, many of Jonathan Majors’s fans are furious over the actor’s character assassination before evidence from his side rolled out. As one user going by @droppedballspod wrote on Twitter, “Y’all got on here and slandered Jonathan Majors before any details came out”.
The latest development has some also questioning “If Jonathan Majors wins his court case. Does that women go to jail for lying?” while others are hoping the Kang actor gets a public apology. Though readers are advised to wait until the verdict of the trial. Nevertheless, Marvel Studios’ marketing team may choose to avoid promoting Kang – Loki season 2 may not have to deal with a PR nightmare during its October release if the case sides in Majors’ favor.
Loki season 2 is scheduled to release on October 6 on Disney Plus.
