Michael B. Jordan reveals he is open to working with Jonathan Majors again.
Nearly two years after Creed III, Michael B. Jordan has spoken about his relationship with co-star Jonathan Majors, who was convicted of assault in late 2023 and later fired from the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In a recent GQ interview, Jordan expressed support for Majors, praising his resilience and confirming he would work with him again. Majors was arrested in March 2023 on assault and harassment charges involving his ex-girlfriend, Grace Jabbari. He was found guilty of two misdemeanours and sentenced to probation and a domestic violence program. Jabbari later dropped a federal lawsuit against him in November 2024. Following the scandal, Marvel Studios scrapped plans for Avengers: The Kang Dynasty, replacing it with Avengers: Doomsday focused on Doctor Doom. Meanwhile, Majors’ Magazine Dreams, initially dropped by Searchlight Pictures, was picked up by Briarcliff Entertainment and is now set for a March 21, 2025, release.
Michael B. Jordan says he would work with Jonathan Majors again.
“I’m proud of his resilience and his strength through it all, and [his] handling [of] it. I’m glad he’s good. That’s my boy.”
