Jonathan Majors Maintains His Innocence In First Interview Since Guilty Verdict

by

Last month, the year-long drama of Jonathan Majors assault trial finally came to a close. It came to a close with Majors being found guilty of assault and harassment, the two lesser of the four charges originally brought against him. He’s due to be sentenced next month and could face up to a year in prison. Many expect him to escape his sentencing without being his with any actual time behind bars.

In an interview that aired this morning on Good Morning America Majors broke his silence. He spoke out on the results of the trial for the first time since the verdict was handed down. In the interview he maintains his innocence despite the guilty ruling from the jury. He says in the interview that he was “shocked” by the verdict and that he believed the evidence was in his favor. He also uses the interview to defend a controversial leaked audio snippet. In the recording, he tells his ex-gf she needs to be more like Michelle Obama and Coretta Scott King. He stood behind the message and claimed he was just standing behind women he idolized. Check out Majors’ full interview below.

Elsewhere in the interview Majors made other claims that go fan’s attention. He confessed to cheating in the situation and claims that he could have avoided the whole situation if he had simply been “man enough” to just end the relationship instead of cheat. Majors also sent plenty of praise directed at his new girlfriend Meagan Good. Good was often spotted alongside him throughout the proceedings of his trial.

Some were surprised that Majors chose GMA for his interview in the first place. That’s because its network ABC is owned by Disney.

Award-winning actor Jonathan Majors, known for his roles in acclaimed projects like “Lovecraft Country,” recently granted his first interview since a Manhattan jury found him guilty of assaulting his ex-girlfriend, Grace Jabbari.

ABC News Anchor Linsey Davis conducted the interview, set to air on Disney-owned ABC’s “Good Morning America” on Thursday, January 11. Clips from the interview will be featured on “GMA3” on Monday, January 8, with an exclusive half-hour special airing on “Impact x Nightline” on Hulu.

The 34-year-old actor was arrested and charged with assaulting Jabbari on March 25, leading to a trial that began in December. Despite denials and counter-accusations, Majors was convicted on December 18 on a single charge of assault and harassment. His sentencing is scheduled for February 6, with a maximum potential jail term of one year.

Following the conviction, Disney/Marvel Studios severed ties with Majors, dropping him from the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). The studio is reportedly considering openly gay actor Colman Domingo as Majors’ replacement.

Majors’ attorney, Priya Chaudhry, expressed gratitude for the not guilty verdicts on two additional charges. “It is clear that the jury did not believe Grace Jabbari’s story of what happened in the SUV because they found that Mr. Majors did not intentionally cause any injuries to her. We are grateful for that,” Chaudhry stated. However, she expressed disappointment that, despite discrediting Jabbari’s account, the jury found Majors somehow reckless during the altercation.

The interview provides an opportunity for Majors to share his perspective and shed light on the trial’s intricacies, adding another layer to a complex and challenging chapter in his career.

Jonathan Majors to Give First Interview Since Guilty Verdict to ABC News

Jonathan Majors will have his first TV interview with ABC News following his guilty verdict and firing from Marvel Studios.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Majors will return to a Disney owned project for an interview with ABC News anchor Linsey Davis, which will make its debut on Good Morning America this coming Monday (Jan. 8). The extended interview will air on ABC News Live show, Prime, later in the day.

Marvel Studios dropped Jonathan Majors following being found guilty of assault and harassment. Marvel’s Cinematic Universe’s most recent phase was built around the star Kang the Conqueror character, which was a star in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, both seasons of Loki, and was set to be the main character of Avengers: The Kang Dynasty, which was set to drop on May 1, 2026.

The Hollywood Reporter confirms Majors’ ousting. A new draft for the new Marvel film will be created with the decision. Previously, The Lede Company and his managers at Entertainment 360 dropped the actor.

Jonathan Majors has been found guilty of reckless assault in the third degree and harassment by a New York jury.

The six-person jury concluded of four hours of deliberation across three days. The verdict was read to the court as Majors sat with his girlfriend Meagan Good, his attorneys, and family members.

Majors was found not guilty of intentional assault in the third degree and aggravated harassment in the second degree.

Majors will now face sentencing on Feb. 6.

Previously, Jonathan Majors admitted in text messages to having once been abusive to his accuser and ex-girlfriend, Grace Jabbari. The reveal of an incident six months before his arrest in March 2023 was made in court on Friday.

“I fear you have no perspective of what could happen if you go to the hospital,” Majors said in a text in September 2022. “They will ask you questions, and as I don’t think you actually protect us, it could lead to an investigation even if you do lie, and they suspect something.”

The message also read, “It’s just fake.” She also wrote, “I will tell the doctor i bumped my head.” Jabbari cried as she read the message in court.

The full message was read by Assistant District Attorney Kelli Galaway: “I will tell the doctor I bumped my head if I go. I’m going to give it one more day, but I can’t sleep and I need some stronger pain killers. That’s all: why would I tell them what really happened when it’s clear I want to be with you?”

The messages have been categorized as “Molineux evidence,” accoridng to PEOPLE, meaning that it could “provide necessary background information or explanation” to the charged acts.

In other messages, Major wrote, “Last night I considered killing myself versus coming home. I need love too. Or maybe I’m such a monster and horrible man, I don’t deserve it. And I should just kill myself. In this way, my existence is miserable, I want to die.”

The opening statements of Jonathan Majors‘ assault case were delivered on Monday (Dec. 4). The prosecutor would reveal details of the alleged incidents that led to law enforcement being called.

The prosecutor, Michael Perez, revealed the March 25 incident was not between two strangers. Instead, he detailed that Majors and his girlfriend Grace Jabbari were in a “serious relationship” of two years and once discussed marriage and kids.

The night was stated to have gone left inside a private car when a woman named Cleopatra texted Majors, “Wish I was kissing you right now.” Jabbari grabbed the phone, leading to a struggle between the two. Majors is stated to have tried to pry her finger off the phone, causing bruising, swelling, and pain. Opposing the story is Majors’s defense lawyer, Priya Chaudhry, who stated Jabbari did the assault, resulting in rips to the actor’s coat.

According to Variety, Chaudhry stated Jabbari would go to a club with strangers after the event, while Majors checked into a hotel and sent a text ending the relationship. Jabbari returned to the apartment and called Majors 32 times, then took two sleeping pills. Majors went to the apartment the following morning, found Jabbari on the closet floor, and then called the police out of concern. Jabbari reportedly threatened suicide in the texts.

The trial is expected to last two weeks and have testimony from Jabbari and potentially the private car driver.

Jonathan Majors Will Break His Silence

Jonathan Majors is still yet to be sentenced for the guilty verdict. A hearing is scheduled for February 6th to hand down a sentence for his convictions. The charges could carry a sentence of up to one year, though many suspect that Majors won’t spend any actual time behind bars.

Throughout the course of the trial, Majors seemed to grow closer with his new girlfriend Meagan Good. She often showed up alongside him in court and reports said they had grown incredibly close by the weeks leading up to the verdict. What do you think of Jonathan Majors choosing ABC for his first interview since being found guilty of assault? What do you think he will say about the trial during the new interview?
