A recent incident on the set of an action movie produced by the Daily Wire and Bonfire Legend has drawn attention. Actor Jonathan Majors was filmed accidentally crashing through a window during a scene. The video surfaced online, revealing Majors and co-star JC Kilcoyne falling from a height of about six feet.
Details of the Incident
The footage, published by Deadline, follows reports of unrest among the crew, who were allegedly organizing a strike over unsafe working conditions. In the video, Majors and Kilcoyne tumble out of the frame, with reports indicating that Kilcoyne suffered significant injuries, requiring stitches on multiple parts of his hands.
Reaction from Producers
Dallas Sonnier, a producer at Bonfire Legend, responded to inquiries about the incident. He stated that the actors’ fall was “shorter than the failed movie careers of the now-union reps,” suggesting a dismissive attitude towards the concerns raised. The film is written and directed by Kyle Rankin, with notable producers including Ben Shapiro from the Daily Wire, alongside Sonnier.
Context Around Jonathan Majors
This film marks a notable inclusion in Majors’ portfolio, particularly after his recent legal troubles. Following a conviction for assault and harassment in 2023, he was removed from several projects, including significant roles within the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).
Impact on Career
Majors’ conviction stemmed from a serious incident involving his former partner, Grace Jabbari, leading to a sentence that requires him to complete a 52-week domestic violence intervention program. His fallout with Disney and Marvel Studios is particularly significant, given his role as Kang the Conqueror, a character intended to be a prominent figure in future MCU narratives.
