Jonathan Majors' Film Halted by Union Strike

0:00On April 4th, crew on Jonathan Majors' new action flick walked off set after a wild stunt gone wrong. Majors and his co-star, JC Killcoin, tumbled right out a window during filming. Turns out, the tempered glass panel was just sitting loose, meant for a shatter later on. Killcoin ended up with stitches all over his hands, but Majors walked away without a scratch. The mishap sparked bigger safety red flags that had been building for weeks. Crew found black mold on set, and props kept dropping on folks. Over half the team had enough, unionizing with IETSE and launching a strike on March 26th. They first pushed for payments into union health and pension funds, but as dangerous powered up, tensions boiled over into a full labor standoff. Producer Dallas Saniye fired back hard in the statement, calling the strikers out for sabotaging production amid industry strikes. He said they were too busy with explosions and helicopter chases to deal with sidewalk protests or what he labeled communists.

1:00This film shaping up as Majors' big screen return after Marvel dropped him as Kang the Conqueror. That came post his conviction for harassment and assault last year, following roles in Loki and Ant-Man in the Wasp, Quantamania. Now production hangs in the balance as both sides dig in.
