NEW YORK (AP) — The actor Jonathan Majors has appeared in court in New York for the start of jury selection in a trial in which he is accused of injuring his then-girlfriend during an argument last spring. The trial could wind up playing a big role in what happens next with Majors, who had emerged as a breakout star with major roles in films including “Creed III” and who was being set up as the next, great supervillain in the Marvel multiverse. He says his ex-girlfriend was the aggressor in a confrontation in Manhattan that led to his arrest last March.
