JAKARTA - Marvel Studio has officially dismissed actor Jonathan Majors who played Kang in the Marvel cinematic universe or Marvel Cinematic Universe. This was revealed after Majors was found guilty of the abuse of his ex-lover on Monday, December 18.

Jonathan Majors was arrested on March 25 after Grace Jabbari reported it to the police. Jabbari claimed Majors abused him behind the car after Jabbari saw the message Majors received from another woman.

Majors tried to take his phone from Jabbari and forced him to cut off his right hand middle finger. When Jabbari was about to get out of the car, Major hit the back of his head and forced him into the car.

In its ruling, Majors was also found not guilty of one intentional assault charge at the third and one charge of severe harassment at the second level.

The 34-year-old actor denied he had attacked Jabbari. His defense team alleges that he was the attacker when he took his phone. Manhattan district lawyers released a message between Majors and Jabbari.

Several messages were sent, including Majors' request that Jabbari not go to the hospital and a message when Majors threatened to commit suicide. In a recording, Majors also said that Jabbari should act like Michelle Obama because Majors is an extraordinary man who is useful to the world.

After being arrested, Jonathan Majors was fired from his management Entertainment 360 and his publicity party, Lede Company. He was also expelled from the production of The Man in My Basement.

Several projects that Majors wanted to play such as Da Understudy and 48 Hours in Vegas also did not develop. However, Marvel's decision to fire Jonathan Majors was called the biggest consequence considering Marvel is one of the largest production houses.

Majors plays Kang, an antagonist who appears in several Marvel content, one of which is the Loki series in 2021. He first appeared in the film Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania.

Majors are also projected to be the main character in Avengers: The Kang Dynasty, which will be shooting in early 2024.

Jonathan Majors reached the peak of his career this year when he starred in Marvel and the film Creed III with Michael B. Jordan. He also appeared in the film Magazine Dreams which has received appreciation at various festivals.
