Actor Jonathan Majors was confronted Tuesday with a revised domestic violence charge stemming from a woman's allegations that the Marvel star twisted her arm, struck her head and shoved her into a vehicle in New York City in March.

Majors, appearing by video, did not enter a plea to the misdemeanor assault charge and said little else at the arraignment, which lasted all of three minutes.

His lawyer, Priya Chaudhry, says Majors is innocent. She blasted prosecutors after Tuesday's hearing for pursuing what she called a “witch hunt” against the actor. Majors had been a fast-rising Hollywood star with major roles in recent hits like “Creed III” and “Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania.” But in the wake of his arrest, the U.S. Army pulled TV commercials narrated by Majors, saying it was “deeply concerned” by the allegations.

Majors must also continue to abide by a protection order barring any contact with his accuser, Pauley said.
