Michael B. Jordan Breaks Silence on Relationship with Jonathan Majors After Assault Conviction

Michael B. Jordan has addressed his relationship with Creed III co-star Jonathan Majors following Majors’ assault and harassment conviction. Majors was convicted in connection with a 2023 domestic dispute with his ex-girlfriend, Grace Jabbari. Although he faced charges, the actor was sentenced to probation and required to complete 52 weeks of a domestic abuse intervention program, avoiding jail time.

Since the conviction, Majors’ film Magazine Dreams was initially shelved by Fox Searchlight, though it is now set for a release in select theatres next month after nearly two years. The actor also lost his role as Kang in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).

In a recent interview with GQ, Jordan spoke out about the situation for the first time, calling it a “tough situation.” He expressed support for his friend, saying, “But he’s doing great, just got engaged. I’m proud of his resilience and his strength through it all, and [his] handling [of] it. I’m glad he’s good. That’s my boy.”

When asked if he would work with Majors again, Jordan responded with a definitive, “Yes. Yes.” Despite the controversy, Jordan has shown continued support for his co-star, underscoring their strong friendship.
