Jonathan Majors’ film appearances have granted the actor award nominations and an abundance of roles. However, his personal life has made way more headlines over the last couple of years. Alleged domestic violence claims from his last partner have lead to his recent decline in work and removal from a major film series.

Majors Splurged During the Height of His Fame 

Majors reportedly spent over $350,000 on luxury vehicles. He’s said to own a Mercedes-Benz S-class worth $96,000, an $87,000 BMW 7 Series, an $86,500 Audi A8 and a $76,000 Lexus LS. Majors also reportedly owns a three-bedroom apartment in Los Angeles, despite his advice to young actors to “keep your rent low” in an interview.

Recently, Majors proposed to his girlfriend of almost two years. Good flashed her diamond ring on the red carpet at the Ebony Power 100 Gala. Both actors have expressed excitement about a future together.

Domestic Violence Allegations Cost Him Millions

Jonathan Majors’ net worth was an estimated $2 million ahead of the domestic violence trial. At the height of his career, he raked in an estimated $550,000 per month from Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. He starred in The Last Black Man in San Francisco in 2019, one of former President Obama‘s favorite films, and starred in Lovecraft Country. His role in Creed III would become one of his last notable performances before the alleged domestic violence claims made by his former partner.

Major Productions Distance Themselves From the Actor

Upon learning of the alleged domestic violence incident, the U.S. Army removed his recruitment commercials. He was dropped as a client by Entertainment 360 and the Lede Company. Now, it’s been reported that Jonathan Majors’ net worth is $500,000. In October, Majors had an upcoming film release for Magazine Dreams. Despite it already premiering at Sundance, the film was pulled by Disney’s Searchlight Pictures. Majors was found guilty and convicted on two misdemeanor counts of assault and harassment. He was sentenced to a one-year, in-person batterer intervention program in Los Angeles, California, was ordered to continue therapy, and pay a $250 surcharge. In light of the conviction, he was also dropped from all future Marvel Studios projects.

There are various reasons why AFROTECH participants attended this year’s conference, but even before the annual event began, one word hit home with everyone: community.

The gathering of minds at the AFROTECH Conference is the largest occasion in the nation for Black technology professionals. The conference began exactly one week following the 2024 presidential election. With Trump as the President-elect, many were left feeling discouraged and uneasy about what the future holds given some of the policies Republicans proposed in Project 2025.

Given the sequence of events, the timing of this year’s summit is perfect. For many attendees, AFROTECH has provided a safe space during uncertain times.
