*Jonathan Majors has reportedly been dropped by his longtime manager amid allegations that he physically assaulted his girlfriend.
The “Creed III” star is facing domestic violence charges following an incident with his girlfriend that occurred in New York City last month. Not only has Majors parted ways with Entertainment 360, but his PR firm, The Lede Company, has also curbed the star, Deadline reports.
Both his manager and PR company have cut ties with him over issues surrounding his toxic behavior, according to Deadline. Meanwhile, Majors and his reps claim he is innocent in the assault case. His legal team reportedly has video evidence and witness statements to support it.
The girlfriend, who has not been identified, reportedly suffered minor injuries to her head and neck after the alleged attack. After Majors was arrested (and later released), she recanted her allegations.

Majors’ attorney, Priya Chaudhry, said he is “completely innocent” and that the woman allegedly sent her client several text messages “admitting that she was the one who used physical force against him.”
In the messages, the girlfriend allegedly wrote, “I told them it was my fault for trying to grab your phone.”
The “Ant-Man 3” star seems to have a problematic personality, according to people who have worked with him, EUR reported previously.
Society Theatre co-founder and Broadway actor/director Tim Nicolai noted in a tweet that many actors and artists in the Yale and NYC communities consider Majors “a sociopath and abuser.”
“I’m just gonna say this about Jonathan Majors and be done with it: folks at Yale and the broader NYC community have known about him for years. He’s a sociopath and abuser and that is how virtually everyone speaks about him. It’s a shame it took this long for him to be reported,” Nicolai wrote, according to The Direct.
Nicolai also explained why it has taken until now for people to speak out about Major’s unsavory antics. Nicolai claims “people have tried … It’s both simultaneously awful to know he is still doing this and also a relief that he may never get to again:”
“I’m already seeing a bunch of ‘why didn’t you do anything?!’ Folks, people have tried. Ultimately needed a victim to come forward. It’s both simultaneously awful to know he is still doing this and also a relief that he may never get to again,” Nicolai reportedly said.
Nicolai added, “A bunch of us are close with people (and sometimes multiple people) he has directly harmed. I don’t know if they will speak on it. It is completely their decision.”
Nicolai also revealed, “Literally people [Jonathan Majors] did this to are texting me right now. It’s not ‘I heard.’”
