In the last five years, Jonathan Majors has been one of the most promising actors in Hollywood, with "Creed III" and Marvel films weighing on his back and a perennial place on the A-list ahead.
Then Majors and his ex-girlfriend accused each other of assault, and he found his world dominated by courtroom drama.
Majors has denied the allegations, and the district attorney declared that the allegations against his ex-girlfriend lack “prosecutorial merit.”
The allegations between Majors, 34, and his ex-girlfriend, Grace Jabbari, 30, have played out in public, leading to a pause in his rapid rise to superstardom and drawing questions about his character at a time when American institutions say they are trying to take allegations of abuse more seriously.
The case pits his future — he faces the possibility of a year behind bars if convicted, but Hollywood's sentence could be longer — against a backdrop of "believe women," the movement that seeks to take allegations of sexual and domestic abuse, mostly against men, at face value.
Jabbari, a British choreographer and dancer, is in the midst of a fight that could resonate even wider by providing another successful case in the war against abuse, or by providing fodder for those who seek to discredit "believe women."
Majors is arrested on the domestic abuse allegations. He's released but with a limited temporary restraining order, customary following domestic abuse allegations, limiting contact with Jabbari.
The Manhattan District Attorney’s Office files three counts of third-degree assault, one count of second-degree harassment, and one count of aggravated harassment, all misdemeanors, against the star.
The complaint alleges that Majors struck Jabbari in the face with an open hand, leaving her with a laceration behind her ear; that he grabbed her hand, causing swelling and bruising to her finger; and that he put his hand on her neck.
The altercation unfolded in the back seat of a vehicle, prosecutors say.
Majors' attorney Priya Chaudhry says at the time that he is "completely innocent" and that the car's driver and video footage would prove it. She vows that charges would be dropped once the facts emerged.
Chaudhry says that Jabbari's hospital visit was for an "emotional crisis," and not for physical injuries described by police.
The lawyer also says Jabbari had "recanted" the domestic abuse allegations in two written statements. Majors’ publicist, Carrie Gordon, says at the time, "He has done nothing wrong."
Majors' attorney shares screenshots with NBC News that she says showed text messages to the actor from Jabbari in which she purportedly admitted "she was the one who used physical force against him."
"She also disavowed any allegations that he had done anything to her and confirmed that Mr. Majors called 911 because of her mental condition," Chaudhry says.
The court grants Jabbari a "full" temporary restraining order prohibiting Majors from contact with her, an order that extends and strengthens the protective order from March.
Majors makes his first appearance in court, via Zoom, according to Variety. It is a fairly routine hearing, but afterward, Chaudhry alleges the case was fraught with "explicit and implicit bias," saying the treatment of Majors highlights the "racial bias that permeates the criminal justice system," according to the publication.
She calls the prosecution of Majors a "witch hunt," per Variety.
Majors went to police to make his own allegations against Jabbari, according to the publication Insider, which cites a domestic incident report and a sworn affidavit. The cross-complaint claimed Jabbari was the attacker on March 25, Insider says.
Chaudhry confirms the cross-complaint in a statement. It claims Jabbari had launched “frenzied attacks” on Majors and that his legal team provided video and photo evidence showing the attacks, as well as evidence that Majors was allegedly victimized, such as torn clothing.
Jabbari turns herself in for processing following Majors' cross-complaint.
She was arrested on charges of assault and criminal mischief and released with a desk appearance ticket, police say.
The Manhattan District Attorney’s Office says it will not prosecute, saying the allegations against Jabbari lack "prosecutorial merit.”
“The matter is now closed and sealed,” a spokesperson says. Chaudhry calls the district attorney's decision a "serious injustice."
The trial weighing charges against Majors opens.
