Jonathan Majors appears as the on-screen narrator in the Army’s “Be All You Can Be” advertisements. However, he attracted a different kind of attention. Police responded to a call involving him and a 30-year-old woman. The woman had injuries on her head and on her neck. Police subsequently arrested Majors. The Army believes that suspects are innocent until proven guilty. However, they decided to pull the ads pending completion of the investigation related to this incident.<\/p>\n

From the Army Times:<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Jonathan Majors, who stars as the on-screen narrator in the first wave of “Be All You Can Be” advertisements, faces charges of assault, strangulation and harassment, a New York Police Department official told Army Times.<\/p>\n

The police official said officers responded to a 911 call shortly after 11:00 a.m. at an apartment in the city’s Chelsea neighborhood, where they found Majors and a 30-year-old woman with injuries to her head and neck. Officers did a “preliminary investigation” and arrested the actor.<\/p>\n

The case involved a “domestic dispute,” police said. First responders took the woman to a local hospital.<\/p>\n

The actor’s publicist did not respond to a query from Army Times but told other news outlets, “He’s done nothing wrong. We look forward to clearing his name and clearing this up.”<\/p>\n

But in the arrest’s wake, the Army threw the brakes on its rebranding campaign.<\/p>\n

“The U.S. Army is aware of the arrest of Jonathan Majors and we are deeply concerned by the allegations surrounding his arrest,” said Laura DeFrancisco, spokesperson for the Army Enterprise Marketing Office. The Chicago-based enterprise office oversees a multi-billion dollar contract with advertising conglomerate DDB to oversee and execute the service’s marketing efforts.<\/p>\n

“While Mr. Majors is innocent until proven guilty, prudence dictates that we pull our ads until the investigation into these allegations is complete.” DeFrancisco added.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
