Jonathan Majors Makes Acting Comeback In Ben Shapiro’s Film After Assault Conviction

Daily Wire co-founder and podcaster Ben Shapiro is listed as a producer on the project, the title and plot of which are “being kept under wraps for now,” according to a press release shared with celebrity.land.

However, the release did say the story is in “in the vein of” action movies such as “Red Dawn” and “Toy Soldiers.”

Caleb Robinson and Mike Richards are executive producing the film alongside Majors. Kyle Rankins is directing the project based on his screenplay and has already begun production in South Carolina.

The movie will be streaming exclusively on DailyWire+, home to conservative programs such “The Ben Shapiro Show,” and “The Matt Walsh Show.”

His film “Magazine Dreams” did get a theatrical release last year, but production had been completed before his criminal conviction. It was originally slated for a 2023 release.

The actor avoided jail time and was sentenced in 2024 to a 52-week in-person domestic violence intervention program and probation.

The Daily Wire previously made headlines for its documentary, “Am I Racist?”, a commentary on diversity, equity and inclusion starring conservative podcaster Matt Walsh.
