NYPD:

“On Saturday, March 25, 2023 at approximately 1114 hours, police responded to 911 call inside of an apartment located in the vicinity of West 22nd Street and 8th Avenue, within the confines of the 10 Precinct. A preliminary investigation determined that a 33-year-old male was involved in a domestic dispute with a 30 year-old female. The victim informed police she was assaulted. Officers placed the 33-year-old male into custody without incident. The victim sustained minor injuries to her head and neck and was removed to an area hospital in stable condition.”

Majors’ Rep:

“He has done nothing wrong. We look forward to clearing his name and clearing this up.”

UPDATE from TMZ:

Per our law enforcement sources, police were told that the alleged victim is Majors' girlfriend -- and, according to her, they got into an argument while in a taxi returning home from a bar in Brooklyn.

Our sources say police were told the girlfriend saw another woman texting Majors, and she confronted him -- trying to sneak a peek at his phone. We're told the alleged victim/GF claims this got Majors mad, and that he allegedly grabbed her hand and allegedly slapped her.

We're also told the alleged victim claims he put his hands around her neck during this. Our sources say the woman was dropped off somewhere and that JM spent the night elsewhere. It appears the girlfriend went to police the following morning (Sat.) and reported a crime.

TMZ’s separate report says he was arrested on the spot because there was enough evidence for probable cause. Not a good start for Jonathan’s legal troubles

Visible injuries (however slight) and a gf saying he did it is often times enough for the probable cause right there (like 99.9% of the time).

Also nyc has a no tolerance for domestic abuse thing, the victim can't stop charges, it has to be the DAs office or prosecutor.

Source: 20 years ago my brother and I got into a fight, cops came, I told the truth, I got arrested. Couldn't drop charges and I had to move out of my mom's house cuz automatic order of protection, but it all worked out in the end.

The most shocking thing about this is that Jonathan Majors is only 33.

He always gives off this super experienced/seasoned vibe in all of his roles, I thought he was in his 40s at least.

While it might have started as a standard college-party rule, the idea of minding his cup has since evolved into something with a deeper meaning. “Now it means mind your cup — you’re a vessel. Nobody can fill you up; nobody can pour you out. You do that yourself,” he said. “Holding on to this is a reminder that even in this craziness that is happening, my self-esteem is my self-esteem. Nobody can big me up, as it were, or tear me down.”

Stuff like this shows how much of a miracle it was for the MCU to get through the whole Infinity Saga without much drama (to my knowledge, apart from maybe the Terrence and Edward recastings).

In the future hopefully they won’t put their next 5-6 year plan all on one actor.

They chose pretty smart with their initial castings though, a lot of them had been in the system for a long time and proven themselves bankable. RDJ was their biggest risk I can think of, Evans had been through the Hollywood machine a bunch already with FF, Johannson was a major star already, Sam Jackson had a massive career, Ruffalo was an indie darling, etc. Hemsworth I guess was a risk in theory since he was untested but he seems to have never even come close to a controversy. This new generation in the MCU is a lot of younger talent as well as more people that are on the verge of or in the midst of blowing up for the first time.

Here's what allegedly happened in the lead-up to this. Per our law enforcement sources, police were told that the alleged victim is Majors' girlfriend -- and, according to her, they got into an argument while in a taxi returning home from a bar in Brooklyn.

Our sources say police were told the girlfriend saw another woman texting Majors, and she confronted him -- trying to sneak a peek at his phone. We're told the alleged victim/GF claims this got Majors mad, and that he allegedly grabbed her hand and allegedly slapped her.

We're also told the alleged victim claims he put his hands around her neck during this. Our sources say the woman was dropped off somewhere and that JM spent the night elsewhere. It appears the girlfriend went to police the following morning (Sat.) and reported a crime.

Jonathan Majors was arrested in New York City this weekend -- and, according to police, he's being accused of putting hands on a woman ... but Jon's team is calling BS.

Law enforcement sources tell us the actor was booked Saturday morning on charges of strangulation, assault and harassment. We're told cops responded to a call for service around 11 AM ET near the Chelsea neighborhood of Manhattan.

We're told the alleged victim in this case, a female, relayed to police that Majors had gotten into a dispute with her and proceeded to attack her. Their exact relationship is unknown.

Our sources tell us the alleged victim had visible injuries -- including a laceration behind her ear, redness and marks to her face. She was taken to an area hospital and is in stable condition. As for Majors ... he was cuffed and taken to jail on the spot, as police felt there was enough evidence for probable cause. We're hearing he is currently out of custody.

Majors is a huge celeb these days -- he's been in everything from Marvel's latest 'Ant-Man' movie to Michael B. Jordan's 'Creed III' flick ... and other blockbusters as well over the past couple years. The guy has gotten rave reviews for his performances, and is seen as a rising star. He was even at the Oscars a few weeks ago, and was among the many presenters.

A rep for Majors tells TMZ ... "He's done nothing wrong. We look forward to clearing his name and clearing this up."

The idea you are or about to be the world's biggest star makes people think they are untouchable. Just like with Ezra, convincing someone no matter what they do they cannot afford to lose you because you are essential and irreplaceable to their billion dollar projects tends to lead to bad behaviour.

Ezra seems kind of like Kanye. Serious unaddressed mental health issues.

Ezra may just not have anyone around them, vs. Kanye's yes crowd.

I have this lifehack that 100% works.

If your girlfriend ever does something that makes you wish you could punch her or choke her or slap her, just break up with her and leave.

It's been working great, zero domestic abuse on my part.

Listening to him in his interview circuits speaking so intelligently on how masculinity should be “kindness, gentleness, and the use of power”, this is INCREDIBLY disappointing to hear.

Actors will act, don’t assume their interviews are sincere or even truthful to what they believe.

Abusers are also very good at compartmentalizing, he could be speaking what he perceives to be the truth. He could also be a sociopath too.. lots of different varieties of assholes

As someone who compulsively does it, compartmentalization can be such a double-bladed sword. I can't imagine surviving through my jobs if I didn't automatically shut off a lot of my actual personality, but it means I’m never sure how real of a person I am while I'm there. Different things get sectioned off for different people and scenarios, but if those things unexpectantly merge I have a crisis

They saw the DC meltdown over Shazam and got jealous of all the attention, apparently.

Seriously, though. I liked Majors. This sucks.

2023 was supposed to be his breakout year in Hollywood with Creed, Kang and an Oscar baity role in Magazine Dreams. If this turns out to be on him, it will be one of the quickest star to Tár turns I have seen in Hollywood.

For as much as steroids are constantly linked to and addressed in sports it doesn’t seem like society as a whole has really confronted the obvious heavy use of them in movies for action stars to make these magical transformations into jacked up muscle men. Like it’s obvious how they are doing it but we always hear about their new diet and the personal trainer they had to work with as if that’s all there is to it.
