Jonathan Majors’ MAGA-Coded Movie Trailer Released

Jonathan Majors’ acting career has struggled in the wake of his 2023 assault conviction, and his latest film doesn’t seem to be doing him any favors for a supposed mainstream comeback.

Earlier this year, the former Marvel star, 36, was announced as part of the cast of an action film produced by conservative commentator Ben Shapiro’s media company, The Daily Wire. At the time, few details — including the movie’s title and plot — had been revealed.

But on Thursday, the first teaser for director Kyle Rankin’s film, officially titled “Run Hide Fight: Infidels,” was released alongside a MAGA-coded synopsis that seems primed for controversy.

“When radical Islamic terrorists hijack a liberal college’s pro-Palestine encampment to enforce barbaric Sharia law on students and execute infidels in a makeshift caliphate, a ragtag band of red-blooded students, a security guard tired of ‘Uncle Tom’ smears, and a Delta Force vet must arm up to save their clueless peers and keep America from surrendering to the enemy on its own soil,” the logline reads.

The minute-long clip includes footage from the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, campus protests against Israel’s war on Gaza, Fox News hosts reporting on terror threats and Secretary of State Marco Rubio telling the network, “Radical Islam has designs openly on the West.”

The trailer later shows an ISIS flag flying over a college campus before ending with the cryptic message, “Coming soon… Or already here?”

Majors does not appear in the teaser, though he stars in the film alongside JC Kilcoyne. In April, Deadline shared footage of both actors falling through a window while filming a scene. The incident came after a report that several crew members walked off the movie’s South Carolina set, citing labor disputes and safety concerns.

“Run Hide Fight” — which does not yet have a release date — marks Majors’ first film project since last year’s “Magazine Dreams” hit theaters, courtesy of indie distributor Briarcliff Entertainment.

The bodybuilding drama premiered at the 2023 Sundance Film Festival and was slated for a theatrical release under Searchlight Pictures later that year before the film was shelved in the wake of Majors’ domestic violence trial involving his then-girlfriend Grace Jabbari.

The actor was found guilty of reckless assault and harassment in December 2023, though he was acquitted of a different assault charge and of aggravated harassment.

Majors managed to avoid jail time, as he was sentenced to probation and ordered to complete a 52-week in-person batterer’s intervention program. He’s since made several attempts to rehab his image and restore his once-promising career.

In 2024, he accepted the “Perseverance Award” at the Hollywood Unlocked Impact Awards, where he tearfully addressed his domestic violence case among his “shortcomings” as a “Black man in the criminal justice system.”

“Despite the support and the evidence that was in my favor, I knew shit was bad,” Majors said onstage. “And it was bad because of who I was and what I am. And this is what happens to Black people all too often … That’s a harsh reality I learned.”

“I received this award not just as an acknowledgment that I have persevered,” he added, “but as a command to be there for others and to help them when and if their trials come.”
