Jonathan Majors and his talent manager Entertainment 360 have parted ways, an insider has confirmed different. The development comes three weeks after the “Creed III” and “Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania” actor was arrested on assault and harassment charges in New York in late March.
Mayors were also dropped by his former public relations manager, the Lede Company. A source with knowledge of the PR company confirmed that the actor was dropped as a client last month.
There was no immediate comment made by Entertainment 360 or the Lede Company.
The 33-year-old actor was arrested in Manhattan on March 25 and charged with assault and harassment in connection with a domestic dispute with a 30-year-old woman. New York police responded to a 911 call, which led to Major’s arrest. The unnamed victim was hospitalized with “minor injuries to his head and neck,” according to authorities.
Majors’ legal team denied the assault took place, saying there was evidence that would clear the actor of the charges.
“Mr. Majors completely denies assaulting the woman,” Majors’ criminal defense attorney Priya Chaudhry said in a statement the week after the arrest. Chaudry also released a series of texts message that was allegedly exchanged between Majors and the 30-year-old woman to better contextualize the situation.

In addition, Majors has acquired received critical acclaim for his performance in “Magazine Dreams,” which premiered at this year’s Sundance Film Festival and was acquired by Searchlight Pictures just days before the actor’s arrest.
