Actor Jonathan Majors is on trial for misdemeanor charges of assault and harassment against his former girlfriend, Grace Jabbari.
The prosecution alleges Majors subjected Jabbari to years of abuse, while the defense claims she made up the allegations out of revenge.
The trial has significantly impacted Majors' career, with him being dropped by his management and public relations teams, and his upcoming film being removed from release.

The assault trial of actor Jonathan Majors, known for his role in Creed III, has commenced with opening statements from both the prosecution and defense. Majors is facing misdemeanor charges of assault and harassment against his former girlfriend, Grace Jabbari. The trial, which is expected to last two weeks, has been delayed for months but finally began with the selection of a jury.

The prosecution alleges that Majors subjected Jabbari to years of abuse, both physical and psychological. They claim that Majors used physical violence to manipulate and control Jabbari. In her testimony, Jabbari described Majors as having a violent temper and exhibiting controlling and manipulative behavior. She recounted instances of him throwing objects, trying to control her socially, and threatening to take his own life.

On the other hand, the defense argues that Jabbari made up the allegations out of revenge. They claim that Majors was the true victim in the situation. The trial began with conflicting accounts of a backseat confrontation between Majors and Jabbari, with both sides presenting clashing narratives about the aftermath of the alleged assault.

The trial has had a significant impact on Majors' career. He has been dropped by his management and public relations teams, and his upcoming film has been removed from release. Several of his projects have been put on hold following his arrest. The trial is seen as an opportunity for Majors to clear his name and salvage his career.

The trial is unusual as misdemeanor assault cases rarely go to trial. The trial will include testimony from Jabbari and potentially other women with whom Majors has been involved.
