<p id=”par-1_53″><a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/tag/actors/”>Actor</a> Jonathan Majors’ <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/jonathan-majors-passion-acting-never-abandoned-me.html/”>passion for his craft</a> turned him into one of Hollywood’s fastest rising stars a few years ago. However, his highly publicized scandal with ex-girlfriend Grace Jabbari hurt his reputation and earning potential. Although Majors isn’t exactly broke, he could’ve been among the film industry’s highest-paid stars if circumstances were different.</p>

<p id=”par-2_83″>If the estimations on Majors’ finances are accurate, it seems he has even less money than he had only a couple of years ago. In 2021, the<a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/what-is-jonathan-majors-net-worth.html/”> actor’s net worth was an estimated $2 million</a>, and he commanded a salary of $200,000 a year. His star was rising thanks to his work on projects like Michael B. Jordan’s <em>Creed III </em>and <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/jonathan-majors-kang-ant-man-and-the-wasp-quantumania.html/”><em>Antman & The Wasp: Quantumania</em></a>. The film paid Majors a hefty salary of $500,000 for his role as Kang the Conqueror. </p>
<p id=”par-3_38″>Marvel has a history of taking care of actors who stick with them long-term, and Majors would’ve been no exception. According to <a href=”https://variety.com/2023/film/news/jonathan-majors-more-alleged-abuse-victims-cooperate-with-da-office-assault-1235588870/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Variety</a>, Majors would’ve made $20 million in subsequent MCU films after reprising his role as Kang.</p>
<p id=”par-4_72″>But his controversy with ex-girlfriend Grace Jabbari derailed his career significantly and cost him millions. His management company, Entertainment 360, and his PR team, Lede Company, dropped him. He also lost a couple of lucrative endorsement deals from the US Texas Army and MLB Texas Rangers that further dinged his wallet. Finally, Marvel let the actor go. Afterwards, Majors missed out on what might’ve been the biggest payday of his career. </p>

<p id=”par-5_42″>Additionally, <a href=”https://www.nytimes.com/2024/11/22/movies/jonathan-majors-lawsuit-settlement.html#:~:text=Majors%20was%20criminally%20convicted%20last,then%20sued%20him%20in%20March.&text=The%20actor%20Jonathan%20Majors%20and,Jabbari%20announced%20on%20Friday.” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>The New York Times</a> reported that Majors settled the Assault and Defamation lawsuit that Jabbari filed against him. Although it was for an undisclosed amount, the result of the lawsuit may have also taken a significant chunk out of Majors’ income.</p>
<p id=”par-6_49″>Nowadays, <a href=”https://www.celebritynetworth.com/richest-celebrities/actors/jonathan-majors-net-worth/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Celebrity Net Worth</a> estimates that Majors is worth $500,000. But there’s still a chance that Majors’ net worth may reach the heights it did before he was caught up in his scandals. It all depends on how willing Hollywood is to welcome the actor back into the spotlight.</p>

<p id=”par-7_63″>When comparing their Hollywood careers, Good had a significant head start on her fiancé. She began her rise to stardom as a child actor doing projects like <em>Friday </em>and <em>Eve’s Bayou</em>. She hasn’t stopped working since, and her career has matured along with her. In her adolescent years, her role in Nickelodeon’s <em>Cousin Skeeter</em>, which lasted three seasons, elevated her status in Hollywood.</p>
<p id=”par-8_52″>As she grew older, she expanded her filmography with movies such as <em>Roll Bounce</em>, <em>Saw V</em>, and <em>Stomp the Yard</em>. According to Celebrity Net Worth, Good has accumulated $5 million thanks to her work in the film industry. The publication asserts that she has much more money than her future husband Majors.</p>
<p id=”par-9_22″>Good’s accomplishments are some of the many reasons she takes issue with the once-common speculation that she was with Majors for money.</p>
<p id=”par-10_43″>“I’ve been working my entire life,” Good said in an interview with <a href=”https://www.washingtonpost.com/entertainment/movies/2024/07/13/meagan-good-divorce-black-majors/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>The Washington Post</a>. “I’ve been taking care of my family since I was a teenager. I don’t need to be paid. The little pride in me thinks, ‘Y’all crazy as hell.’”</p>
<p id=”par-11_20″>She’s been adamant that she’s with Majors simply because he makes her happy, viewing <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/meagan-good-calls-jonathan-majors-god-send.html/”>her boyfriend as a godsend</a>. </p>
<p id=”par-12_34″>Alleged insiders, however, have offered a darker look into Good’s and Majors’ financial situation. Sources indicated to <a href=”https://www.hot97.com/news/meagan-good-covers-jonathan-majors-costs-amid-struggles/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Hot 97</a> not too long ago that Good might’ve been too generous to Majors regarding supporting him.</p>
<p id=”par-13_24″>“Meagan pays for everything. They really wanted this dog, and she got stuck paying the $75,000 training bill. Like, that’s crazy,” the source claimed.</p>
<p id=”par-14_34″>The source further alleged that Good was even helping Majors pay for his child’s education. The concern is that Good will financially compromise herself if she doesn’t mind how much she’s helping her partner.</p>
<p id=”par-15_27″>“No one knows what Meagan sees in this guy. If things keep up this way, she may not be able to pay her mortgage,” the source added.</p>
