The American actor Jonathan Majors is scheduled to be sentenced in a New York court for assaulting his former girlfriend, a conviction that has already derailed the once-rising star's career.
Following the guilty verdict, Majors was immediately dropped by Marvel Studios, which had cast him as Kang the Conqueror, a role envisioned as the main villain in the entertainment empire's movies and television shows for years to come. The jury ultimately convicted him of one assault charge and a harassment violation, though acquitted him on a different assault charge and of aggravated harassment.
But the 34-year-old California native and Yale University graduate still faces other legal hurdles. Last month, Ms Jabbari filed a civil suit in Manhattan federal court, accusing the actor of assault, battery, defamation, and inflicting emotional distress.
