Actor Jonathan Majors avoids jail time in assault of ex-girlfriend

Actor Jonathan Majors was sentenced to probation on Monday, allowing him to avoid time behind bars for assaulting his ex-girlfriend. 

Majors, 34, faced up to a year in prison after a jury in Manhattan found him guilty in December of harassment and 3rd-degree reckless assault.

Judge Michael Gaffey ordered the actor to complete an in-person batterer’s intervention program that will list 52 weeks, according to The Associated Press. 

Majors played the role of "Kang the Conqueror" in the 2023 film, "Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania," a movie in the Marvel series.
