Jonathan Majors fell out of Hollywood after being convicted of assault and harassment
The trailer and plot details for the movie that disgraced former Marvel Cinematic Universe actor Jonathan Majors is making with The Daily Wire have been released. The movie is called Run Hide Fight: Infidels and was filmed in South Carolina earlier this year.
According to The Daily Wire‘s official teaser for the film, Run Hide Fight: Infidels has the following plot synopsis:
“When radical Islamic terrorists hijack a liberal college’s pro-Palestine encampment to enforce barbaric Sharia law on students and execute infidels in a makeshift caliphate, a ragtag band of red-blooded students, a security guard tired of ‘Uncle Tom’ smears, and a Delta Force vet must arm up to save their clueless peers and keep America from surrendering to the enemy on its own soil.”
Given that Jonathan Majors is the lead of the film, he’s either playing the Delta Force vet or the “Uncle Tom.” As recently as 2023, he was playing Kang the Conqueror in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and was being positioned as the franchise villainous successor to Thanos.

The Daily Wire reportedly spent $50 million on the project, which made headlines back in late March when Majors and a co-star fell through a window while rehearsing a scene, prompting an on-set walkout by the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE, the union of people who work on movie sets) over safety concerns.
Majors’ personal life controversies are directly responsible for the existence of Avengers: Doomsday, hitting theaters in December, as it was previously titled Avengers: Kang Dynasty.
He was fired by Marvel Studios in December 2023 after being convicted of assault and harassment against his then-girlfriend Grace Jabbari following a physical altercation in a New York City car in March 2023. The conviction ended his run as Kang the Conqueror in the MCU, a role he had been building toward for years — while building a reputation as one of Hollywood’s great young actors — as the franchise’s next major villain.
Additional accusations of emotional and physical abuse from multiple women emerged during and after the trial, further damaging his reputation. He was sentenced to a year of domestic violence counseling and community service.
