Michael B. Jordan Shows Support For Jonathan Majors’ First Major Film Since Harassment Conviction
Actor Michael B. Jordan is showing love to his “Creed II”I co-star Jonathan Majors’ upcoming movie!
Jordan shared a short clip from “Magazine Dreams” to his Instagram story yesterday (Feb 4.), which will be Majors’ first theatrical release since his 2023 conviction for reckless assault and harassment.

Majors was arrested in March 2023 following a domestic dispute with his then-girlfriend, Grace Jabbari. After pleading not guilty to multiple misdemeanor assault and harassment charges, he was ultimately convicted of one count of reckless assault in the third degree and one count of harassment as a violation. He was acquitted of a separate assault charge and one count of aggravated harassment. As part of his sentence, he was required to complete a 52-week domestic violence intervention program.

Throughout and after the trial, Majors faced significant career fallout. He was dropped by his management company, lost several upcoming film roles—including his highly publicized deal with Marvel as Kang, the Avengers villain—and had multiple projects canceled or put on hold.
“Magazine Dreams” was initially picked up by Searchlight Pictures but later dropped following Majors’ legal troubles. The film, which premiered at the 2023 Sundance Film Festival to critical acclaim and even Oscar buzz, struggled to find a distributor. That changed when Zeus announced it would release the project.

The movie, which follows the story of an aspiring bodybuilder juggling a part-time grocery job, court-mandated therapy, and caring for his ailing veteran grandfather, is set to hit theaters on March 21.
