It's also extremely convenient to blame the one person for the problems when it's a massive company with many employees.
Yowza. What does Disney/Marvel do with Majors now?
Actor Jonathan Majors arrested on domestic violence charges in New York City
Majors' criminal defense lawyer said he is "completely innocent and provably the victim of an altercation with a woman he knows."www.cbsnews.com
Obviously this is a terrible situation but my gosh, the guy is an absolutely outstanding actor, maybe the best young-ish performer we have, and he might have just thrown it all away. Just a freaking shame.
Who are we kidding?
Chris Beard is already back on the job. Majors is unlikely to be going anywhere.
A friend of mine worked on his first critically acclaimed independent film. Actually think the world should look at these things a little differently. It’s one thing to not hire him in the future, something entirely different to shelve or diminish projects that are mostly in the can or past projects. Those thousands of names are real people/jobs in the credits and in the case of the big releases it’s probably only 20% of the people actually employed directly or indirectly by the film.
The character has built recast excuses luckily for Marvel. Can explain him looking different with a throw away line. Or, you can cast a younger or older actor and just say he’s on a different part of the timeline. replace him in one or 2 shows or movies, and rewrite everything after with Doom or something.
Suck. I love Majors as an actor. The dude is the most impressive young up-and-coming actor I've seen in a long time.
100% agree, like they need to release that Flash movie. I thought they should have released batgirl and everything too unless it was total trash. I just mean, I do think Marvel would be totally within their rights to cut ties with him here.

Doesn't seem like Alonso will be going quietly. Will be interesting to see how all of this plays out, as it sounds like it will all play out publicly.
Please please please let that lawsuit get to discovery.Victoria Alonso Marvel Firing Saga Heats Up With New Claims

Feige definitely getting slammed here pretty quickly with a fair amount of adversity. Will be interesting to see how he responds to everything over the next few weeks.

Disney Has Fired Marvel Entertainment Chairman Ike Perlmutter And Others
It's been revealed that Disney has laid off controversial Marvel Entertainment Chairman Isaac Perlmutter, meaning the man who once tried to fire Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige no longer has a job...
The Disney layoffs continue. Frankly, I'm surprised Ike has lasted this long.
ANT-MAN 3 Star Jonathan Majors' Attorney Shares Text Messages Sent By Alleged Victim
The ongoing situation involving Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania star Jonathan Majors' recent arrest for assault continues, with the actor's attorney sharing text messages from his alleged victim.
These things are so difficult to know how they should be handled. I talked to my buddy who is a cop and deals with this stuff all the time. Like articles have stated, there is automatic protocol in these instances with what the cops did in arresting Majors, so that shouldn't be shocking. However, what makes prosecuting nearly impossible or even knowing the full truth even harder is the fact that my cop friend said 9 out of 10 victims eventually recant everything regardless of what happened or not. We saw the same thing happen in the Chris Beard incident with his wife. Technically, the DA can still go after the defendant even if the witness recants, but they rarely do, as it is an uphill battle. When all is said and done, only the people who were there really know what happened and it is hard as outsiders to put much into anyone's statements when it is almost a given they will recant. All we really are left with then is the physical evidence and photos. Anyway, not trying to pick sides, but thought I would share what my cop buddy said as I found it interesting. Will be curious how this all plays out in court of public opinion.
I don't care how well his lawyer is trying to spin this or control the narrative, that CAB video is going to speak for itself. If the video shows he is not at fault then he isn't. Videos do not protect narratives, and they do not protect reputations.
