It was announced on March 26 that Majors has been cast in the action film “True Threat” which will be directed by Gerard McMurray. He will portray Vernon Threat, a Special Forces officer who seeks revenge and justice after the murder of his son.
Also, Majors has been cast in the revenge thriller “Merciless,” to be directed by Martin Villeneuve.
Currently, Majors is featured in the film “Magazine Dreams,” which is playing in 800 theaters nationwide. Despite controversy in his personal life, positive reviews by movie critics and online movie buffs have hailed his performance.
The independent film, directed by Elijah Bynum, was released on March 21.
The film focuses on a fictional bodybuilder named Killian Maddox who is struggling with mental illness. During an unpredictable two-hour ride, Majors commands the screen in an intense role that deals with broad themes of the meaning of human existence to failure and personal adversity.
Though “Magazine Dreams” originally debuted on January 20, 2023, at Sundance, it faded to black for two years after Majors was arrested on March 25, 2023, after an argument with his then-girlfriend. The two were seen in a surveillance video during the dispute which featured the girlfriend chasing the actor through the Chelsea section of Manhattan.
The actor called the police after spending the night alone in an uptown hotel shortly after breaking up with his ex via text. Majors called authorities the next morning to his Manhattan residence — which his ex had locked him out of.
When police arrived, they found her dazed and confused on the floor of Majors’ bathroom. Police arrested Majors.
Majors was charged with assault and would later be found guilty of a misdemeanor. The moment temporarily delayed his career. But a comeback is underway professionally and personally.
As Majors enjoyed a press event that included a Q&A panel with “Selma” (2014) star David Oyelowo, it was revealed by Majors’ mother that her son and actress Meghan Good had gotten married. His mother and Good were seen by Majors’ side during his brief trial in New York in late 2023.
During an interview with Sherri Shepherd on March 21, Majors revealed that he was a survivor of sexual molestation when he was eight. When Shepherd asked Majors what got him to a place where he could share that painful private information publicly. The actor answered: “Growth.”
