Former Marvel star Jonathan Majors was sentenced to one year of counseling for assaulting his ex-girlfriend, Grace Jabbari.
In March 2023, Jabbari claimed Majors attacked her in a taxi, leaving her injured. Majors also allegedly twisted Jabbari’s arm, strangled her and squeezed her finger until it fractured. Police arrested Majors on charges of strangulation and harassment. After news of the assault came to light, two other women accused Majors of assault.
Majors previously claimed the incident occurred after Jabbari became jealous after seeing a text from another woman on his phone, saying he was trying to defend himself against Jabbari, who became violent.
In December 2023, a jury found Majors guilty of one count of reckless assault and harassment. Hours after the conviction, Disney and Marvel, which are in charge of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), cut ties with Majors. Majors had played the character of Kang the Conqueror.

Jonathan Majors has been sentenced to one year of domestic violence counseling after being convicted last year of assaulting and harassing his ex-girlfriend, Grace Jabbari.
The actor must complete a 52-week domestic violence programming in Los Angeles, where he currently resides. He must also continue the mental health therapy he has been enrolled in and provide updates on his progress.
The sentencing was delivered Monday by Judge Michael Gaffey in a lower Manhattan courtroom, almost four months after Majors was found guilty of two misdemeanor counts of harassment and assault against Jabbari. After a two-week trial, he was set to be sentenced in January, but it was delayed to April due to motions filed by his legal team that were later dismissed.

His legal team requested that the charges be dismissed, a request that was denied by a New York judge. As a result, he stands to be sentenced next week.

Jonathan Majors’ sentencing date has been delayed until April 8 after his defense team filed a motion to set aside the verdict.
The Creed III actor was convicted in December of reckless assault in the third degree, a misdemeanor, and harassment in the second degree, which is a violation. The charges carry a potential sentence of up to one year in prison. The sentencing was initially set to take place Tuesday. Majors appeared virtually for the hearing, in which prosecutors said they needed time to respond to the motion, which was filed Monday.
The charges stem from an incident on March 25 between Majors and his ex-partner Grace Jabbari. Jabbari testified that while the two were riding in a car, she saw a text on his phone suggesting he was cheating on her and grabbed it from him.

While Jonathan Majors has been convicted of assault and harassment, members of the legal community believe the actor will get little to any jail time and may have grounds for an appeal — though the career consequences of doing so may outweigh the benefits.
The actor was found guilty of reckless assault in the third degree, a misdemeanor, and of harassment in the second degree, which is a violation. The assault charge carries a maximum sentence of up to one year in jail, but several attorneys said they do not believe Majors will spend time behind bars. He is scheduled to be sentenced on Feb. 6.
“Since it’s the defendant’s first conviction, although technically he faces one year of jail, the judge will 99 percent give him three years probation, anger management and possibly some community service. Mr. Majors is not getting jail time,” said Cary London, a Manhattan-based civil rights...

2nd Update 1:40 Pm: After a day spent with lawyers fighting over what can and cannot be made public in Jonathan Majors’ domestic violence trial, the Loki star got his first look Wednesday afternoon at potential New York jurors who will decide his guilt or innocence.

He faces up to a year in jail if he’s convicted.
