Jonathan Majors Is a “Famous Monster” — And Signing Autographs at $140 a Pop

As a seasoned gamer who’s seen my fair share of life and its twists and turns, I can’t help but admire Jonathan Majors‘ resilience. The man’s been through a whirlwind, from the heights of Hollywood stardom to the depths of personal turmoil, only to bounce back with the tenacity of a video game character on ultra-hard mode.


Apart from sporadic appearances on doorsteps captured by TMZ or red carpet events, 34-year-old actor Jonathan Majors has been largely absent from public view recently. Known for his role in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, Majors was sentenced to a 52-week domestic violence intervention program in April following his conviction of reckless assault in the third degree and harassment in December, stemming from an incident with his former partner. The court mandated that he continue mental health counseling and therapy, requiring updates on his treatment progress as well.

2023 film “Magazine Dreams” by Majors, originally seen as a potential award-winner, has been removed from Searchlight Pictures’ roster. Similarly, his role as the supervillain Kang the Conqueror in the expanding Marvel Cinematic Universe was also terminated. In a surprising turn of events, Robert Downey Jr. is back with Disney’s comic book film empire to play Dr. Victor von Doom in exchange for “substantially over $80 million” across two movies.

Despite speculations, Major isn’t finished yet. On September 15, just two days after his first treatment compliance date, you can find him at the Valley Forge Casino Resort in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania. There, he will be signing autographs for $140 and offering professional photographs for $160 each. This event is part of the Famous Monsters Fest, organized by the renowned fan magazine Famous Monsters of Filmland, which takes place from September 13 to the 15th.

Majors made the announcement in a short video on Famous Monsters’ Instagram. After 23 hours, there were 555 likes and a handful of positive comments. (“Bro it sucks what happened this guy seems like a genuinely good guy who got himself in a bad position because of someone else,” wrote @itssteveithink_.)

In late 2022, the popular movie magazine titled “Famous Monsters of Filmland,” initially published by Forrest Ackerman in 1958 and now owned by publishing giant Rosetta Stone, was acquired by music artist Corey Taylor (lead vocalist of Slipknot) and film producer Eben McGarr. It’s worth noting that McGarr is also involved with “Mad Monster” magazine and its conventions, Mad Monster Party, which made headlines in February when they hosted Kevin Spacey at the Embassy Suites by Hilton in Concord, New Hampshire.
