Jonathan Majors faces additional abuse allegations, as more women reportedly come forward

Embattled actor Jonathan Majors reportedly faces new allegations of abuse amid fallout from his arrest last month.

More individuals allegedly abused by the “Creed III” star have come forward and are co-operating with the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office, according to Variety, citing unnamed sources familiar with the matter.

The Toronto Star has been unable to independently verify the fresh allegations, while a spokesperson for the district attorney’s office declined to comment on the Variety report.

In response to the Toronto Star’s request for comment, Majors’ defence attorney, Priya Chaudhry, shared documents submitted by the defence team to the court, which state, in part, that Majors’ representatives have submitted “irrefutable evidence that Mr. Majors is innocent.”

The defence’s court submissions, reviewed by the Star, contest the accuser’s claim. Evidence filed with the New York court by Majors’ representatives appear to show the accuser uninjured and partying after leaving the actor earlier that night.

The new reported developments, however, come after Majors was arrested in New York City on March 25. The actor, who also recently starred in “Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania,” was charged with strangulation, assault and harassment.

The arrest, investigators said, stemmed from an alleged domestic dispute between Majors a 30-year-old woman. Police said they responded to an emergency call from a Chelsea apartment around 11 a.m. on March 25.

“The victim informed police she was assaulted,” a spokesperson for the New York City Police Department said in a statement at the time. “Officers placed the 33-year-old male into custody without incident. The victim sustained minor injuries to her head and neck and was removed to an area hospital in stable condition.”

Majors, who was one of Hollywood’s rising stars, has seen his image tarnished and meteoric rise come crashing down.

He was supposed to be the flag-bearer for the next wave of the Marvel Cinematic Universe; his character Kang the Conqueror villain in “Ant-Man” was billed as the new “big bad.”

Following his arrest, the U.S. army, who were running a campaign starring Majors, announced it was pausing the ads. “While Mr. Majors is innocent until proven guilty, prudence dictates that we pull our ads until the investigation into these allegations is complete,” a spokesperson said.
