Following the guilty verdict in his assault trial on Monday, Jonathan Majors has been fired by Marvel Studios. On social media, fans have a lot of thoughts about it.

It’s not only a spectacular career imposion for an actor who less than a year ago seemed headed for permanent stardom. It’s also a massive headache for Marvel and the future of its cinematic universe.

And that’s on top of the fact that Majors, who continues to deny any wrongdoing, was found guilty of assault and harassment against his ex-girlfriend. He’ll be sentenced in February and has signaled plans to appeal.

About that latter point, ScreenRant writer Alisha Grauso called the whole thing “a damn shame.”
