Jonathan Majors Dismissed from Marvel Studios Following Assault Conviction

The actor's future in the industry remains uncertain as legal experts predict he may appeal the conviction, while fans and insiders speculate on potential recasts for his character, Kang.

Actor Jonathan Majors was found guilty of assault and harassment of his ex-girlfriend Grace Jabbari, leading to his immediate dismissal from Marvel Studios.
Majors, who played Kang in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, was acquitted on another assault charge and one count of aggravated harassment.
Legal experts believe Majors is unlikely to face jail time and may appeal the conviction, but the career consequences of doing so may outweigh the benefits.
Marvel Studios' swift action has drawn comparisons to similar legal troubles involving actors Ezra Miller and Amber Heard, who were not dismissed from their roles.
Fans and industry insiders are speculating on potential recasts for the character of Kang, as well as the future direction of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
