- Insider has obtained the NYPD complaint Jonathan Majors filed against assault accuser Grace Jabbari.
- Majors swore in an affidavit that a "drunk and hysterical" Jabbari slapped and scratched him on the night they fought.
Marvel's Jonathan Majors has filed an NYPD domestic violence complaint against his assault accuser and ex-girlfriend Grace Jabbari, in which he alleges that she attacked him, not the other way around, during a March 25 dispute on a Chinatown street corner.
Majors remains charged in that dispute, with Jabbari alleging the "Creed III" and Marvel's Kang the Conqueror actor broke her finger, twisted her arm, and struck her in the ear, causing it to bleed. Majors has denied the accusations. An August 3 trial date has been set in Jabbari's case against Majors.
But on June 21, the day after his last court date, Majors walked into the Chinatown precinct and gave police his own version of what actually happened that night — alleging that a "drunk and hysterical" Jabbari scratched, slapped, and grabbed at his face, causing pain and bleeding, according to a domestic incident report and sworn affidavit obtained by Insider.
A second NYPD precinct — the one that covers Majors' penthouse address in Manhattan's Chelsea neighborhood — is also involved in investigating the actor's counter-claims against Jabbari, which Insider wrote about in detail last week.
Both precincts found probable cause to arrest Jabbari, and issued what is called an "incident card," or "I-Card," an electronic document that directs police to take Jabbari into custody, at least for questioning, according to Majors' defense attorney Priya Chaudhry and a law enforcement source.
But Manhattan prosecutors, who are pursuing the case against Majors, were for some reason reluctant to turn the tables on Jabbari, and at the district attorney's office's urging, the "I-Card" was de-activated, the two said.
The DA's office has repeatedly pushed back against investigating or charging Jabbari, despite supporting evidence that includes surveillance camera footage of the street dispute and photos of Majors' injuries, Chaudhry told Insider for last week's story. Chaudhry shared some of that evidence with Insider for that story.
The DA's office declined comment and the NYPD did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Jabbari could not be reached by email or phone.
Chaudhry declined to comment beyond confirming that an I-Card was issued and deactivated.
A history of alleged attacks
Majors, 33, and Jabbari, 30, a London-based movement coach, worked together on the set of this year's "Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania."
He is now dating actress Meagan Good, who was at his side at last week's court appearance in Manhattan Criminal Court.
In his domestic incident report, Majors alleges that Jabbari had attacked him on prior occasions, though none were reported, including a "verbal dispute in London that became physical," as his report to police describes it.
NYPD detectives also asked Majors, who has a 10-year-old daughter from a past marriage, a series of yes/no questions. In the "Prior History" section of the domestic incident report, police checked the "yes" box next to these questions:
"Is suspect capable of killing you or children?"
"Is suspect violently and constantly jealous of you?"
And, "Has the physical violence increased in frequency or severity over the past 6 months?"

Majors has denied causing any of the injuries he was arrested over and has insisted through his lawyer that he was not violent to Jabbari, who he alleges became violent while accusing him of getting texts from another woman.
On the incident report, Majors says he did pull away from Jabbari as she grabbed for his face, coat, and phone. At another point, he admits that when their fight spilled out into traffic, he hoisted her back into their chauffeured black Cadillac Escalade.
"I was worried she would be hurt by traffic. So I physically picked her up and put her in the car," the incident report reads.
Majors describes his own injuries in detail. "In the morning, my face was stuck to the pillow because of the blood from the cut from Jabbari digging her thumbnail into my face," the incident report reads.
Majors, additionally, accuses Jabbari of running up his credit card without his authorization, returning to London with his iPhone, "a Rolex vintage watch and other luxury items that cost $6,000 - $7,000," according to the incident report.
The actor is not due back in court on Jabbari's case until his August 3 trial date.
The fast-rising star has scored major roles in this year's "Creed III" and "Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania," in which he debuted as supervillain Kang the Conqueror.
But after his arrest, the US Army pulled TV commercials in which had starred; Disney last month postponed his upcoming Marvel film, "Avengers: Kang Dynasty" from May 2025 to May 2026.
