1. Actor Jonathan Majors arrives at court for sentencing
STORYLINE:
Actor Jonathan Majors arrived in a New York court Monday morning as he’s set to be sentenced for assaulting his former girlfriend, a conviction that has already derailed the once-rising star’s career.
The actor, wearing all black and greeting supporters in court, faces a year in prison but could also just receive probation after a Manhattan jury in December found him guilty of misdemeanor assault.
Lawyers for Majors and Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg declined to say ahead of the hearing what punishment they’ll seek from a judge.
Following the guilty verdict, Majors was immediately dropped by Marvel Studios, which had cast him as Kang the Conqueror, a role envisioned as the main villain in the entertainment empire’s movies and television shows for years to come.
The conviction stems from an altercation in March 2023 in which Majors’ then-girlfriend Grace Jabbari accused him of attacking her in the backseat of a chauffeured car, saying he hit her head with his open hand, twisted her arm behind her back and squeezed her middle finger until it fractured.
