Jonathan Majors Checks Troll Who Tried To Flirt With Meagan Good, Social Media Respects It
In today's 'doing too much' news, celebrity couple Jonathan Majors and Meagan Good were recently approached outside an Apple store by what at first seemed to be a friendly fan who wanted a picture. The newlyweds obliged, but the mood changed when he complimented Good.
'You're beautiful in person, just to let you know,' the unidentified man said in a clip shared by The Art of Dialogue. 'Could I get a picture and possibly a number?'
Good quickly replied, 'No, that's my man,' while Majors approached the man behind the camera, saying, 'Whose number? Why don't you go Google something, bro?'
He steps forward, but that's when the recording shuts off as the man says, 'I didn't know.'
Now really, sir? You knew who Meagan Good was, but didn't know about her husband. He made headlines not just for being accused of abuse, but for Good (and her mother) supporting him throughout the trial as he lost most of his upcoming work and his reputation. After getting engaged in November 2024, they reportedly married in March, according to PEOPLE .
We don't know what happened after the cameras switched off, but given Major's bodybuilding background and training for Creed III, maybe forcing a reaction out of him isn't the best idea.
Good has yet to announce her next gig after the series finale of her latest show, Harlem. Majors, who lost his job as Kang the Conqueror in the MCU, is trying to restart his career after a misdemeanor conviction in his case of domestic violence against an ex-girlfriend. He starred in Magazine Dreams, a critically acclaimed film that was released to little fanfare in March.
Somewhat surprisingly, despite all the negatives attached to Major's name, the internet respected him for standing up to an obvious troll. See some of the best reactions below.

'The Fantastic Four: First Steps': Are There Post-Credits Scenes?
Marvel's newest movie is here, and we have good and bad news. The good: You don't have to do any homework before seeing The Fantastic Four: First Steps, according to Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige. The bad: It's the last Marvel flick we're getting until 2026. More good: It has a super Rotten Tomatoes score. More bad: You'll miss out if you don't stick around to watch the credits. The Fantastic Four: First Steps premiered in theaters on Friday and kicks off Phase Six of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It drops viewers into a retrofuturistic world where -- due to an accident that mutated them and gave them powers -- the heroes are Reed Richards/Mister Fantastic (Pedro Pascal), Sue Storm/Invisible Woman (Vanessa Kirby), Johnny Storm/Human Torch (Joseph Quinn) and Ben Grimm/The Thing (Ebon Moss-Bachrach). CNET's Kourtnee Jackson reviewed First Steps, which she noted is "heavy on the sci-fi and tender family dynamic." The film featuring Marvel's First Family continues the tradition of bonus clips after the movie. Here's what you need to know about post-credit scenes. Does The Fantastic Four: First Steps have post-credits scenes? Yep, it sure does. The new Fantastic Four movie has a mid-credits and post-credits scene. If you want to watch both, you should plan to stay in the theater for about an additional 11 minutes after the film. If you're here for details about what happens in those clips, you'll find that below. Don't keep reading unless you want a spoiler-packed rundown. The Fantastic Four: First Steps follows Marvel's First Family during a pivotal time in their lives: The pregnancy and birth of Reed and Sue's baby son, Franklin. That also coincided with the most significant challenge the Four had yet faced: Their planet served up as a snack for the intimidating Galactus. In the end, the Four manage to take their home off the menu, and the film wraps up with them continuing their duties as the protectors of their world (and of the adorable Franklin). It's clear that Franklin is no average infant either -- Galactus identified the baby as a worthy planet-eating successor, and Franklin's mere presence around his mother seemed enough to resurrect her after the final boss battle. The film's mid-credit scene, which starts about two minutes after the ending, revolves around Franklin and his loving mom. The scene takes place four years later, meaning Franklin is no longer a tiny tot. Sue and Franklin are sitting on a couch together, and she gets up to grab a new book for them to read together. She asks H.E.R.B.I.E. if the robot has seen the book Franklin loves, and she swaps out one of his favorites, The Origin of Species by Charles Darwin, for the other, which is a more kid-friendly book. The exchange between mom and robot suggests the little boy is advanced for his age. But the good times are cut short when Sue senses something is off. Marvel She returns to Franklin to find him reaching out and touching a cloaked character who wasn't there just moments earlier. We don't see the intruder's face, but he's holding a silver mask. It's undoubtedly the incoming MCU antagonist Doctor Doom. The audience sees a message that says, "The Fantastic Four will return in Avengers: Doomsday." The Avengers movie will star Robert Downey Jr. as Doom and is scheduled for release on Dec. 18, 2026. As for the second post-credits scene: If you stay all the way to the end, you'll catch the cast depicted as cartoon characters on a TV. What could Doctor Doom's appearance mean? Between Mephisto in Ironheart and Doctor Victor Von Doom's cameo in this movie, MCU theories are going to spin all over the place. Let us join in. Doom's comic book history has mostly put him at odds with the Fantastic Four, with a deep rivalry between him and Reed Richards/Mr. Fantastic. The two were once university classmates but never close friends as Victor put himself above everyone. Over the course of storylines, they've battled each other while occasionally dropping their beef to fight a common threat. As the Four's main antagonist, he's attacked, hatched various evil plots and even kidnapped Franklin. Like Reed, he's a science whiz and has had brushes with the Silver Surfer and Galactus. With that in mind, he could either have intentions to snatch Franklin to use the child's cosmic abilities or resurrection powers, or he's shown up to ask the Fantastic Four for help in a different reality. Or both. After all, Galactus was dropkicked into a different dimension and could very well have landed in the universe with 616 -- that Earth could be his next snack. The question is, will Doctor Doom be in his evil era or semi-hero era when Avengers: Doomsday drops next year? Franklin can create what's called "pocket universes," which are basically self-contained within a larger universe. Given that the Doomsday movie could possibly see multiversal drama play out after the events of Doctor Strange: Multiverse of Madness (remember that scene about an Incursion?) and Fantastic Four, Doctor Doom could be looking to harness the young boy's powers to either stop -- or take advantage of -- whatever disaster is on the horizon. And let's not forget that post-credits scene in Brave New World, where Sam Wilson was sternly warned of "the others" coming from another world. Realities and universes may be on the brink of colliding when we see Doom next, and then the plot will lead us all into Secret Wars, which, hopefully, gets into the Battleworld comic book storyline. Prepare to see a bunch of heroes and new villains converge from across the multiverse (that includes X-Men and Loki, too).

The One Thing ‘Superman' and ‘Fantastic Four' Can Agree on? Origin Stories Are Over
[Editor's note: The following article contains some spoilers for both 'Superman' and 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps.'] It long ago became a familiar refrain for both this writer and plenty of other critics, journalists, film fans, and superhero stans: We're done with origin stories. And while the ever-expanding nature of both the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the spruced-up DC version requires the seemingly constant addition of new heroes and new stories, which, in turn, mean more movies and TV shows that chronicle how these super-beings came to be, it's time to call time on those heavy-hitter origin tales. More from IndieWire Is 'Fantastic Four' a Marvel Reset or Another Step Backward? Screen Talk Reviews the Film and Previews Fall Festivals 'Monk in Pieces' Review: Billy Shebar's Vital Documentary Makes Sense of an Artist Who's Always Defied Basic Understanding We know why Batman is Batman, how Spider-Man became Spider-Man, and that Superman is an extraterrestrial. That's a lesson that both of this summer's big superheroic releases — James Gunn's delightful DC franchise reset 'Superman' and Matt Shakman's less successful MCU entry 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps' — both intrinsically understand and honor. Both films open after our titular heroes have become, well, heroes. Gunn's film not only opens after his Clark Kent (David Corenswet) has crash-landed on Earth from his native Krypton, but also after he's come to terms with his powers, grappled with growing up in Smallville, become Superman as we know him, moved to Metropolis, gotten a job at the Daily Planet, met Lois Lane, told Lois Lane who he is, and set about saving the world one squirrel at a time. That's a tremendous amount of ground to cover and more than enough for its own film — or, as we've seen over the past 87 years the hero has been in the zeitgeist, more than enough for multiple films, TV series, shorts, radio plays, even a musical, and a little thing called comic books — and is simply not required anymore. Jumping into the Superman story in medias res doesn't mean that we're robbed of enjoying the building blocks of how something came to be, but that we get to enjoy the story from a different starting point. Seeing how Lois Lane (Rachel Brosnahan in Gunn's film) reacts to discovering that Clark and Supes are the same person? That's not nearly as interesting or fresh as watching her grapple with that dichotomy, over and over, and in different situations. Similarly, Gunn's film doesn't push any superhero-to-superhero meetings on the audience; instead, when Superman joins a fight alongside the so-called Justice Gang, we get to observe relationships that are already in place. What a relatively small touch — hey, these people know each other — that pays off big time. Gunn and company are in the midst of something of a DC reset, which affords them the opportunity to take on seemingly risky things like 'not having to remind us that Superman is literally from space and also Clark Kent,' but even before this new iteration of DC screen lore, Warner Bros. was starting to dip its rubberized wings into less origin-centric superhero stories. Matt Reeves' 'The Batman' (which is, and we're getting deep here, not actually part of the overall DC superhero franchise, but is its own thing, called the quite-chewy 'Batman Epic Crime Saga') similarly works off a baseline understanding of the Caped Crusader (Robert Pattinson). And while, yes, Bruce Wayne's beloved dead parents and their horrific deaths are included in the film, it doesn't play out as a traditional origin story. Consider it a happy side effect of the film's earliest incarnations, when Ben Affleck was going to direct and star in his own Batman movie, after his Bruce had already been 'introduced' in other DCEU films. For once, development hell has rewards. Much like 'Superman,' Shakman's 'Fantastic Four' opens four years (you get it, right?) after the titular superhero family was turned into cosmically powered individuals after a spaceflight gone bad. Because of the alternate Earth the fab four inhabit, the energetic opening of Shakman's MCU film not only gets to show off the superhero clan, but the retrofuturistic world they protect. It's the highlight of the film, a zippy and genuinely fun way to introduce the group (including Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, and Joseph Quinn) within the confines of their kitschy planet (which is also, incidentally, filled to bursting with citizens who adore them). Cleverly packaged as a TV chat show introduction to the famous group, Shakman finds the space to introduce the heroes, their world, and even show off some of their exploits (from befriending Mole Man to vanquishing, as best we can tell, a bunch of super-smart apes). For fans of the comic book heroes, it's an opening full of classic storylines and some 'hey, I get that reference!' nods. For newbies, it's a whiz-bang trip through lore that sets up the story to come. Mostly, it's refreshing. Consider this year's other MCU entries, including 'Captain America: Brave New World' and 'Thunderbolts,' both of which require a high level of franchise knowledge to really stick, including the consumption of multiple movies and TV shows (and, and this is essential, a solid memory when it applies to all of them). If you're an MCU fan, that's a lot of time spent to 'get' a film or two. If you're just a casual watcher of the movies, it's nearly insurmountable. Let's stop that now. 'Superman' and 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps,' lead the way. That's heroics we can get behind. Both 'Superman' and 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps' are now in theaters.

That ‘Fantastic Four: First Steps' Ending Quote Explained: Who Is Jack Kirby?
The Marvel legend is finally getting more recognition Thanks to 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps,' Marvel legend Jack Kirby is finally starting to get more recognition for his work. Consider it a post-credit scene if you want, consider it a tribute, but the latest MCU film ends with a quote from Jack Kirby, the co-creator and initial artist for the Fantastic Four. More from TheWrap Do You Need to See Any Other Marvel Movies Before 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps'? That 'Fantastic Four: First Steps' Ending Quote Explained: Who Is Jack Kirby? Paramount-Skydance Merger Expected to Close Aug. 7 Who Plays the Silver Surfer in 'The Fantastic Four'? Meet the Emmy Winner Behind the VFX 'If you look at my characters, you will find me,' the quote at the end of the film reads. 'No matter what kind of character you create or assume, a little of yourself must remain there.' While Stan Lee was front and center for much of the early hayday of MCU movies for his creations, many of the characters getting movies about them were co-created by Kirby. Other characters the artist had a hand in co-creating include Ant-Man, The Avengers, Black Panther, Captain America, Thor, The Incredible Hulk, Iron Man, The Silver Surfer, and The X-Men. It wasn't just the quote that gives a nod to Kirby. The Fantastic Four of the MCU are from a different, retro-futurist Earth than most of the movies in the canon. The Earth is designated Earth 828. The final tribute reveals Kirby's birth and death dates Aug. 28, 1917 to Feb. 6, 1994. 8/28 becomes Earth 828. 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps' is being heralded as a return to form for Marvel Studios after much of Phase 4 and 5 entries were considered rocky. TheWrap critic William Bibbiani called it a first-rate movie for Marvel's First Family. In his review he said, ''The Fantastic Four: First Steps,' whatever its drawbacks, feels like a real Fantastic Four movie, and that's no small achievement. It'll never be as important or influential as the comics but it does feel like an idyllic summer afternoon, sitting under a shady tree and thumbing through back issues of a marvelous series with endearing characters. That's more than enough. In fact, that's a heck of a lot.' The post That 'Fantastic Four: First Steps' Ending Quote Explained: Who Is Jack Kirby? appeared first on TheWrap.
