Jonathan Majors’ Legal Team Accused Of Pulling Publicity Stunts Amid Ongoing Domestic Violence Case

The legal team for Jonathan Majors, who plays Kang in the MCU, has been accused of pulling publicity stunts amid his ongoing domestic violence case. Jonathan Majors’ future in the MCU is up for question pending the results of this case, but a new filing by New York prosecutors has helped to fan the flames. With the case still ongoing, nothing can be taken for an absolute fact, but this will not be welcome news to Majors’ legal team or Marvel as the MCU gears up for the Multiverse Saga’s climax, to which Kang and his variants will be central.

A new motion obtained by Rolling Stone now details the involvement of the UK’s Metropolitan Police, which prosecutors allege Majors’ legal team has involved in an array of publicity stunts, including leaking of misrepresented court documents and attempting to have the Met Police distribute wanted fliers for Majors’ ex-girlfriend. The prosecutors have also said that they have obtained the medical records for a woman at the heart of this case, which they say is related to another incident that occurred in September 2022. All of this will be in addition to the serious allegations already leveled against Majors, in which he is accused of domestic violence.

Jonathan Majors Domestic Violence Case Explained

Just one month after starring as Kang in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantummania, Majors was arrested in March for misdemeanor charges of assault, strangulation, and harassment against his ex-girlfriend; Majors and his legal team deny the charges. Following this, however, several other alleged victims were reported to have been working with the Manhattan District Attorney’s office concerning additional alleged incidents of abuse. Majors’ lawyer, Priya Chaudhry, however, has claimed instead that Majors is the alleged victim. Majors filed his own police report in June, alleging that he was the one who was attacked, although the NYPD did not make any arrests.

This new motion, meanwhile, is suggesting that Majors and his legal team are engaging in a campaign to discredit the case through allegedly leaking video footage and images around the incident to support his claims. Majors is set to appear in court tomorrow, Wednesday, October 25, where he could face up to a year if convicted. This trial was initially set for August 3 but was postponed last minute following a request by Assistant D.A Kelli Galaway for more time for discovery.
