Jonathan Majors falls through window while filming new action movie

Jonathan Majors and his co-star fell through a window while filming their new action movie — leading crew members to walk off set.

The actor and JC Kilcoyne were shooting a scene in which their characters had guns fired at them, according to Deadline.

In footage shared by the outlet to X, the gunfire rang out and the pair backed into a tempered glass window.

However, the glass sheet shattered and the actors ended up falling backwards.

The crew quickly came over to check on Majors and Kilcoyne, who reportedly fell six feet to the ground.

According to sources, after the incident on the South Carolina set, Kilcoyne received stitches “all over his hands.”

The actor’s reps told Deadline that he is “doing well and was taken care of immediately by production.”

They added that he “did not feel unsafe on set and continued to have a positive experience working on the project.”

Kilcoyne has since wrapped filming the movie, which hails from Dallas Sonnier’s production company, Bonfire Legend, and The Daily Wire.

Page Six reached out to reps for Jonathan Majors, The Daily Wire and Bonfire Legend for comment.

However, the incident is just one of many that led the crew to walk out and strike, per Deadline.

Props fell on crew members, black mold infested one location and despite a contractor’s warnings of asbestos, producers still chose to shoot in that location.

On March 26, following the window incident, the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE) called a strike against the production.

Dallas Sonnier, a producer for Bonfire Legend, told Deadline in a statement on Friday: “The entire industry is in freefall due to strikes, and now that their members are out of work, they’re trying to sabotage the few people who are still producing. We don’t negotiate with communists.”

According to Deadline, filming is continuing, with production working to replace the crew members that left.

Sonnier previously told Deadline when the story first broke that he and his fellow producers were “too busy being bad asses, blowing s–t up, flying helicopters, and killing movie terrorists to concern ourselves with four assh—s with signs on the sidewalk and their illegitimate ‘strike.’ ”

He also told People on Friday, “The actors’ fall was shorter than the failed movie careers of the now-union reps.”

Meanwhile, producers have not denied any of the allegations.
