As per Variety, Majors has been confirmed to reprise his role in the second season of Loki. A statement released by his represtatives said,
“Jonathan Majors is completely innocent and is provably the victim of an altercation with a woman he knows. We are quickly gathering and presenting evidence to the District Attorney with the expectation that all charges will be dropped imminently.”
The statement further read that an arrest was mandatory since the NYPD was invested and the incident took place when the woman was being rushed to a hospital. The NYPD was invested by this point and thus a mandatory arrest was made. In the end, however, it was stated that Jonathan Majors has been confirmed for a reprisal of his role as a variant of Kang in the second season of Loki.

Some people even state that the timings of these allegations seem to coincide with the rise of Majors’ fame hinting that it all may be a sham to defame the Lovecraft Country actor.
