In the midst of his ongoing domestic violence lawsuit in New York, Jonathan Majors has now lost several representatives, TheWrap has confirmed.
On Monday, Majors was dropped by his longtime management company, Entertainment 360. The specific reason the company parted ways with the actor it represented for several years is unknown, but according to Deadline, which first reported the break up , it is relevant. his personal habits.
Entertainment 360’s decision to drop Majors was preceded by the actor’s PR team at The Lede Company, who dropped him as a client at several points in the past few weeks.
Majors was arrested in New York City on Saturday, March 25 after a woman, reportedly his girlfriend, called 911 to report that he had assaulted her the night before.

The next day, his legal team issued a thunderous statement declaring Majors innocent and stating that many forms of evidence existed to prove it. The statement promised, among other things, that the alleged victim wrote two statements refuting her accusation, and that Majors would also be exonerated through witness statements and video footage.
While the statement did not provide a timeline, it did mean that the alleged evidence would be released soon, and that “all charges will be dropped immediately.” On March 30, Major’s lawyers provided TMZ with private text messages between Major and the alleged victim, which they said proved his innocence but raised more questions than it answered.
In one of the texts the woman wrote, “I told them it was my fault for trying to take your phone.” On the other hand, he said that he “read the paper they gave me about the strangulation and I said that point blank it could not happen and should be removed immediately,” and that “the origin of the call was to do my collapse and disappearing and your worry as my partner because of our communication before. Except for care.”
The woman herself has not made any public statements – including any kind of formal retraction of the accusations. There is also nothing to indicate that he gave permission for the texts to be made public.
In the three weeks since, the promised witness statements and video have also not materialized.

Majors’ legal troubles also pose a huge potential problem for his biggest employer, Marvel Studios. In 2020, he was chosen as Kang the Conqueror, the villain designated by Marvel as the arc villain for Phases 5 and 6 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In fact, he will fill the same role that Josh Brolin did as Thanos in “Infinity Saga.”
Finally, Majors debuted as a version of Kang in 2021 in the Disney+ series “Loki.” He played the character again in “Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania,” and is set to not only reappear in Season 2 of “Loki” but many other appearances including the 4th “Avengers” movie, “The Kang Dynasty.” Marvel has not made a public statement on the matter and it is unknown if the company has plans to replace him.
