“Ant-Man 3” star Jonathan Majors was arrested in NYC on Saturday for allegedly assaulting his girlfriend and now comes online chatter that the actor has a less than stellar reputation in the business.
As The Direct reports, filmmaker A.B. Allen tweeted in February about a beloved “actor … who, in actuality, is a vicious, cruel, abusive human being.”
Allen continued, “There’s a particular actor, relatively new on the scene, who Twitter has violently fallen head over heels for who, in actuality, is a vicious, cruel, abusive human being, both professionally and in his personal life, and every new viral thirst tweet about him drives me insane.”
Following the news of Majors’ arrest, a Twitter user shared a screenshot of Allen’s post and added the caption: “Now we know who this tweet was about.” Allen responded “Ding / Ding / Ding / Ding.”

A.B. Allen refused to unpack this further, explaining that to do so would “expose people who have been hurt”.
“The specifics of what *I* know unfortunately would still expose people who have been hurt and deserve to not become part of some larger media inquiry if they don’t want to. So I’m not gonna get into the details. But now y’all know what his ~deal~ is, so,” A.B. Allen reportedly wrote.
Society Theatre co-founder and Broadway actor/director Tim Nicolai noted in a tweet that many actors and artists in the Yale and NYC communities consider Majors “a sociopath and abuser.”
“I’m just gonna say this about Jonathan Majors and be done with it: folks at Yale and the broader NYC community have known about him for years. He’s a sociopath and abuser and that is how virtually everyone speaks about him. It’s a shame it took this long for him to be reported,” Nicolai wrote, according to The Direct.
Nicolai also explained why it has taken until now for people to speak out about Major’s unsavory antics. Nicolai claims “people have tried … It’s both simultaneously awful to know he is still doing this and also a relief that he may never get to again:”
“I’m already seeing a bunch of ‘why didn’t you do anything?!’ Folks, people have tried. Ultimately needed a victim to come forward. It’s both simultaneously awful to know he is still doing this and also a relief that he may never get to again,” Nicolai reportedly said.
Nicolai added, “A bunch of us are close with people (and sometimes multiple people) he has directly harmed. I don’t know if they will speak on it. It is completely their decision.”
Nicolai also revealed, “Literally people [Jonathan Majors] did this to are texting me right now. It’s not ‘I heard.'”
Meanwhile, Majors and his reps claim he is innocent in the assault case. His legal team reportedly has video evidence and witness statements to support it. Majors is currently out of police custody and his girlfriend has recanted her assault allegations.
