Jonathan Majors has now lost a substantial chunk of delegates amid the ongoing domestic violence case in New York, TheWrap has confirmed.
On Monday, Major was dropped by his longtime management company, Entertainment 360. The specific reason behind the company that has represented the actor for several years is not known, but according to Deadline, who reported the breakup firstIt is related to his personal behavior.
Entertainment 360’s decision to drop Major was taken by the actor’s PR team at The Lede Company, which dropped him as a client over the past few weeks.
Major was arrested in New York City on Saturday, March 25, after a woman called 911 to report that he had assaulted her the night before.
The next day, his legal team issued a forceful statement declaring the Major innocent and claiming that there were several forms of evidence to prove it. That statement, among other things, promised that the alleged victim had written two statements reiterating her allegations, and that witness statements and video footage would exonerate Major.
While the statement did not provide a timeline, it did imply that the alleged evidence would be released soon, and that “all charges would be dropped imminently.” On March 30, Major’s attorneys gave TMZ private text messages between Major and the alleged victim, which they said proved his innocence but instead raised more questions than answered this.
In one text, the woman wrote, “I told him it was my fault for trying to take your phone away.” In another, she said she “read the paper they gave me about the strangulation and I said outright that it didn’t happen and it should be removed immediately,” and that “the origin of the call was my falling and passing out.” Worry as my partner because of our prior communication was to leave and do with you. Out of care.
The woman herself has made no public statements of any kind – including formally denying any of the allegations. It is also not indicated that he gave permission for the texts to be made public.
In the three weeks since then, even the promised witness statements and videos have not materialised.
