Jonathan Michael Majors (born September 7, 1989) is an American actor.

Majors has since portrayed Nat Love in the western The Harder They Fall (2021), Jesse L. Brown in the war film Devotion (2022), and antagonist Dame Anderson in the sports film Creed III (2023).

On December 18, 2023, Majors was found guilty of two misdemeanor counts of assault and harassment against his ex-girlfriend Grace Jabbari. Sentencing will be announced February 6, 2024.
