Jonathan Majors downplays his chances of winning an Oscar due to a domestic violence conviction, saying it is unlikely to happen.

Jonathan Majors doesn’t think he can win an Oscar following the domestic violence allegations that rocked his career.

A Manhattan court convicted the actor of third-degree assault and second-degree harassment in December 2023 after an incident with his ex-girlfriend, Grace Jabbari, in March 2023.

These accusations and subsequent media attention had a detrimental impact on Majors’ professional life, but he has since made a successful comeback with a standout performance in “Magazine Dreams.”

Fans and critics praised Majors’ performance in “Magazine Dreams,” which was released on March 21, 2025.

Despite the accolades, Majors refuses to get carried away with hopes of winning an Oscar for his portrayal of Killian Maddox.

However, he responded, “I don’t really think about it. Why? I just got other things to think about, you know?”

He added, “And I’ve got people on my team that can think about those things if they present themselves, you know?”

The 35-year-old got honest about his chances of winning an Oscar amid praise for his performance.

He emphasized the importance of honesty, stating, “Let’s be frank. We are all friends here, so let’s speak candidly.”

Majors continued, “The sh-t I went through, the way that I hit the press, the way I was dragged, the things I’ve had to deal with and heal from and all that, that’s completely, it’s a wrap.”

He added, “You know what I mean? Like, I appreciate the hustle. I appreciate the love. But I’m a part of the Academy, and I can tell you right now, it’s not gonna happen.”

Majors was enjoying a rising career and was considered Hollywood’s next big thing following his incredible performances in movies like “The Last Black Man in San Francisco,” and “Lovecraft Country.”

Additionally, Marvel fans were bracing to see him as Kang, the new villain in “Avengers” after he was introduced to them in the first season of “Loki.”

However, Majors’ career took a big hit after he was arrested in March 2023 after his arrest following a domestic dispute with his then-girlfriend, Grace Jabbari.

The pair had an altercation that left Jabbari with a fractured finger and a cut behind her ear. Subsequently, Majors was charged with assault and found guilty of reckless assault and harassment.

Despite being found guilty, Majors avoided jail time. Instead, he was sentenced to probation and ordered to complete a 52-week domestic violence intervention program.

In March, Rolling Stone obtained an audio clip that featured a conversation between Majors and Jabbari.

In the recording, which was from September 2022, the actor seemingly admitted to choking Jabbari and being aggressive with her.

He said in the clip, “I’m ashamed [as] I’ve ever [been] …,” before adding, “I’ve never [been] aggressive with a woman before. I’ve never aggressed a woman — I aggressed you.”

Jabbari then interjected, “You strangled me and pushed me against the car.”

Majors replied, “Yes, all those things are under ‘aggressed,’ yeah. That’s never happened to me.”

Afterward, Jabbari asked Majors if she did something that made him become violent toward her. She asked, “Because I said something sarcastically, in your eyes?”

Majors responded, “Well, clearly, it’s more than that,” to which she added, “Something inside of you.”

The actor noted, “Yeah, towards you,” after which the recording ended.

The unearthed audio further damaged Majors’ public image and came as he was preparing for the release of “Magazine Dreams.”

Amid his difficult legal issues and damaged reputation, one major positive for Majors has been his relationship with Meagan Good.

The lovebirds’ romance was confirmed in May 2023. They announced their engagement in November 2024 at the Ebony Power Gala in Los Angeles.

Good has stood solidly behind her man during his challenging time despite the public scrutiny coming their way.

During a January appearance on “The Breakfast Club,” she shared that faith in God helped her navigate the difficult situation.

Good explained, “Literally, I was talking to God … and I knew exactly where I was supposed to be. And I’ve learned along the way that not only will things not always make sense to me, but sometimes they won’t make sense to other people.”

She added, “That’s okay, as long as you are in alignment with God and you’re trusting, you know, the path that you’re on … and the more that I’ve done that, the happier I’ve been.”
