This year had already been called Marvel’s annus miserabilis before a Manhattan jury found actor Jonathan Majors guilty of two misdemeanour counts of harassment and assault towards his ex-girlfriend, Grace Jabbari, on Monday.
Now, it’s ending with a damaging disaster for the studio, who stood behind Majors after he was arrested back in March, inviting him to the premiere of Season 2 of Loki despite the accusations of assault by the movement coach who he had met on the set of Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania.
