Michael B. Jordan has broken his silence on Jonathan Majors’ recent challenges, offering heartfelt support for his friend and Creed III co-star. In a candid interview with GQ, the Black Panther star reflected on Majors’ domestic violence allegations and the tough road he’s faced in the aftermath.
“It’s been a tough situation, no doubt,” Jordan acknowledged, referring to the allegations made by Majors’ former girlfriend. “But he’s doing great and just got engaged. I’m really proud of his strength and resilience through it all, and how he’s handled everything. I’m glad he’s doing well. That’s my boy.”
Majors, a rising Hollywood star celebrated for his roles in Lovecraft Country and Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, found himself at the center of controversy in 2023. He was convicted of domestic assault and harassment against his ex-girlfriend, Grace Jabbari. While Majors avoided jail time, he was sentenced to a year of domestic violence counseling—a sentence that has since been completed.
Jordan’s words signal an unshaken bond between the two actors, despite the public scrutiny Majors has faced. When asked about the possibility of collaborating with Majors again in the future, Jordan didn’t hesitate: “Yes. Yes.”
