The official charges are "assault by recklessly causing physical injury, as well as harassment, and acquitted him of a different assault charge and aggravated harassment."

He will be sentenced in April and could face up to a year in prison.

In February, the New York Times published further allegations against him from former partners Emma Duncan and Maura Hooper. Duncan, who was engaged to the former Marvel actor, accused him of physical abuse including one incident when she was thrown across the room, while Hooper's accusations included threats and controlling behaviour from him.

Majors' lawyer Priya Chaudhry has responded to the new allegations and acknowledged that he and Duncan had "many serious arguments" but denied any physical abuse took place.

Hooper claimed that she had an abortion during their relationship and was forced to leave the clinic alone while Majors was at a rehearsal.

Jabbari is now seeking damages from the former Marvel star.

Court documents submitted on Tuesday detail further allegations, with Jabbari alleging Majors subjected her to a "pattern of pervasive domestic abuse that began in 2021 and extended through 2023".

Over the last couple of years, Majors had been placed as the primary villain in the multiverse saga within the Marvel Cinematic Universe. His appearance in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania was followed up by a major plot sequence in the second season of Loki.

The fifth Avengers movie was previously called Avengers: The Kang Dynasty, though insiders are calling that movie Avengers 5 now.

Majors' future in the MCU was called into question when he was arrested on suspicions of domestic abuse.

Speaking to ABC News, Majors again completely denied laying his hands on Jabbari and claimed he didn't know how she came to be injured.

“That did not happen. I wish to God I knew (how Jabbari got the injuries). That would give clarity, that would give me some type of peace about it," he explained.

"I’m standing there and the verdict comes down. I say, ‘How is that possible?’ Based off the evidence, based off the prosecution’s evidence, let alone our evidence - how is that possible?'”
