Jonathan Majors Found Guilty of Assault: Will Marvel Star Be Replaced As Kang? on December 18, 2023 at 9:31 pm The Hollywood Gossip
Jonathan Majors has been found guilty in his misdemeanor assault trial. But the big question now is: what’s next?
On Monday, Dec 18, 2023, the Marvel star was found guilty of misdemeanor assault in the third degree. After a whirlwind two-week trial in connection with an alleged fight between him and his former girlfriend, Grace Jabbari, a jury found him guilty recklessly causing physical injury and harassment in the second degree.
Majors, who was present to hear the verdict in the case, remained stoic while dressed in a gray suit as the foreperson read out the charges, and announced he was deemed not guilty on two other counts. For those charges, one of assault and one of harassment, prosecutors needed to show that he had acted with intent during the alleged altercation with Jabbari.

During the trial, she testified “rage and aggression,” during their relationship, which culminated in his arrest last March after a physical altercation.
Is Jonathan Majors Going To Jail?
The trial, which began on December 4, stems from a March domestic incident involving Majors and Jabbari. Majors had pleaded not guilty to the misdemeanor charges of assault and aggravated harassment after he was arrested.
In NY, where the trial is being held, misdemeanor charges of assault carry a possible prison sentence of up to one year in jail. However, it’s unclear yet if Majors will serve time for this conviction.
Is Jonathan Majors Being Replaced As Kang?
Prior to his arrest, Majors was a rising star in Hollywood. He made his debut in the Marvel universe as the evil Kang the Conqueror in the finale of the Disney+ series, Loki. He later reprised the role in in Marvel’s Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quanumania, which released one month before he was arrested.
It has been reported that, since then, Kevin Feige and the Marvel team have been discussing a back-up plan to recast Major as Kang or change course with a different villain in the next phase of the movies. It’s not like they haven’t done it before (Edward Norton’s Hulk and Terrance Howard’s Rhodey), and Disney has already pulled an Oscar-buzz movie with Major from their roster over this. “Magazine Dreams,” a movie in which Majors plays an amateur bodybuilder, was originally slated for release on December 8.
Still, no official word has come yet from Disney or Marvel on whether Jonathan will carry on.

From the start of the trial, prosecutors accused Majors of having a history of violence in his romantic relationships. In fact, the actor’s legal troubles may not be over as other former partners of have reported alleged abuse, and things may just be getting started.
However, standing alongside him almost every step of the way during the trial was his current girlfriend, Meagan Good. In fact, she was seen every single day of two-week trial in the first row behind Majors, even sometimes shedding a tear over the proceedings.

What We Can Learn Inside 50 Cent’s Explosive Diddy Documentary: 5 Reasons You Should Watch

50 Cent’s new Netflix docuseries about Sean “Diddy” Combs is more than a headline-grabbing exposé; it is a meticulous breakdown of how power, celebrity, and silence can collide in the entertainment industry.
Across its episodes, the series traces Diddy’s rise, the allegations that followed him for years, and the shocking footage and testimonies now forcing a wider cultural reckoning.

1. It Chronicles Diddy’s Rise and Fall – And How Power Warps Reality
The docuseries follows Combs from hitmaker and business icon to a figure facing serious criminal conviction and public disgrace, mapping out decades of influence, branding, and behind-the-scenes behavior. Watching that arc shows how money, fame, and industry relationships can shield someone from scrutiny and delay accountability, even as disturbing accusations accumulate.

2. Never-Before-Seen Footage Shows How Narratives Are Managed
Exclusive footage of Diddy in private settings and in the tense days around his legal troubles reveals how carefully celebrity narratives are shaped, even in crisis.
Viewers can learn to question polished statements and recognize that what looks spontaneous in public is often the result of strategy, damage control, and legal calculation.
3. Survivors’ Stories Highlight Patterns of Abuse and Silence
Interviews with alleged victims, former staff, and industry insiders describe patterns of control, fear, and emotional or physical harm that were long whispered about but rarely aired in this detail. Their stories underline how difficult it is to speak out against a powerful figure, teaching viewers why many survivors delay disclosure and why consistent patterns across multiple accounts matter.
4. 50 Cent’s Approach Shows Storytelling as a Tool for Accountability
As executive producer, 50 Cent uses his reputation and platform to push a project that leans into uncomfortable truths rather than protecting industry relationships. The series demonstrates how documentary storytelling can challenge established power structures, elevate marginalized voices, and pressure institutions to respond when traditional systems have failed.
5. The Cultural Backlash Reveals How Society Handles Celebrity Accountability
Reactions to the doc—ranging from people calling it necessary and brave to others dismissing it as a vendetta or smear campaign—expose how emotionally invested audiences can be in defending or condemning a famous figure. Watching that debate unfold helps viewers see how fandom, nostalgia, and bias influence who is believed, and why conversations about “cancel culture” often mask deeper questions about justice and who is considered too powerful to fall.

South Park’s Christmas Episode Delivers the Antichrist

A new Christmas-themed episode of South Park is scheduled to air with a central plot in which Satan is depicted as preparing for the birth of an Antichrist figure. The premise extends a season-long narrative arc that has involved Satan, Donald Trump, and apocalyptic rhetoric, positioning this holiday episode as a culmination of those storylines rather than a stand‑alone concept.
Episode premise and season context
According to published synopses and entertainment coverage, the episode frames the Antichrist as part of a fictional storyline that blends religious symbolism with commentary on politics, media, and cultural fear. This follows earlier Season 28 episodes that introduced ideas about Trump fathering an Antichrist child and tech billionaire Peter Thiel obsessing over prophecy and end‑times narratives. The Christmas setting is presented as a contrast to the darker themes, reflecting the series’ pattern of pairing holiday imagery with controversial subject matter.
Public and political reactions
Coverage notes that some figures connected to Donald Trump’s political orbit have criticized the season’s portrayal of Trump and his allies, describing the show as relying on shock tactics rather than substantive critique. Commentators highlight that these objections are directed more at the depiction of real political figures and the show’s tone than at the specific theology of the Antichrist storyline.
At the time of reporting, there have not been widely reported, detailed statements from major religious leaders focused solely on this Christmas episode, though religion-focused criticism of South Park in general has a long history.
Media and cultural commentary
Entertainment outlets such as The Hollywood Reporter, Entertainment Weekly, Forbes, Slate, and USA Today describe the Antichrist arc as part of South Park’s ongoing use of Trump-era and tech-world politics as material for satire.
Viewer guidance and content advisory
South Park is rated TV‑MA and is intended for adult audiences due to strong language, explicit themes, and frequent use of religious and political satire. Viewers who are sensitive to depictions of Satan, the Antichrist, or parodies involving real political figures may find this episode particularly objectionable, while others may view it as consistent with the show’s long‑running approach to controversial topics. As with previous episodes, individual responses are likely to vary widely, and the episode is best understood as part of an ongoing satirical series rather than a factual or theological statement.

Sydney Sweeney Finally Confronts the Plastic Surgery Rumors

Sydney Sweeney has decided she is finished watching strangers on the internet treat her face like a forensic project. After years of side‑by‑side screenshots, “then vs now” TikToks, and long comment threads wondering what work she has supposedly had done, the actor is now addressing the plastic surgery rumors directly—and using them to say something larger about how women are looked at in Hollywood and online.

Growing Up on Camera vs. “Before and After” Culture
Sweeney points out that people are often mistaking normal changes for procedures: she grew up on camera, her roles now come with big‑budget glam teams, and her body has shifted as she has trained, aged, and worked nonstop. Yet every new red‑carpet photo gets folded into a narrative that assumes surgeons, not time, are responsible. Rather than walking through a checklist of what is “real,” she emphasizes how bizarre it is that internet detectives comb through pores, noses, and jawlines as if they are owed an explanation for every contour of a woman’s face.
The Real Problem Isn’t Her Face
By speaking up, Sweeney is redirecting the conversation away from her features and toward the culture that obsesses over them.
She argues that the real issue isn’t whether an actress has had work done, but why audiences feel so entitled to dissect her body as public property in the first place.
For her, the constant speculation is less about curiosity and more about control—another way to tell women what they should look like and punish them when they do not fit. In calling out that dynamic, Sweeney isn’t just defending herself; she is forcing fans and followers to ask why tearing apart someone else’s appearance has become such a popular form of entertainment.
