As more women come forward with stories of their own about the "Creed III" star, his famous pals are said to have turned "cold."

Oh, how the mighty have fallen. No one could have anticipated the dramatic turn in store for Jonathan Majors earlier this year when the premiere of his two latest movies was quickly followed by an arrest and assault charges. The embattled actor is facing accusations of attacking a woman in a cab. Of course, his legal team has maintained his innocence since the story first broke. To support their statement, lawyers previously shared iMessages from the reported victim. However, many social media users believe they only make Majors look more guilty.

In addition to that, the 33-year-old has been dropped by his management team. He also will no longer be attending the upcoming Met Gala. In recent days, a handful of other women have come forward with allegations aimed at Majors, causing further turmoil to unravel in his life. "It’s no surprise that his phone is ringing much less these days. That is what happens in all walks of life — but especially in Hollywood. Friends turn cold," a source has told Page Six of the latest update. "This could not have happened at a more worse time [for his career]," they added.

Jonathan Majors' Assault Allegations Cost Him Big

Majors was undeniably riding a high earlier this year. Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania arrived in February, and Creed III made its debut the month after. "You can’t deny that the man is a talented actor, but right now he has to reassess and gather a whole new team," the outlet's insider also noted. Just last week, it was revealed that the California-born entertainer has been cut from several upcoming projects, including Otis And Zelma, and Nadia Latif's The Man In My Basement.

He's also expected to appear in various Marvel projects soon, and at this time, there have been no reports of any changes there. With the latest allegations against The Harder They Fall actor, however, that may be reconsidered down the road.
