Former Marvel Star Falls Through Window on Film Set, Crew Striking over Safety Issues

More than 60% of the crew signed union cards as workers cited hazardous conditions and a lack of safety meetings on the set, officials said.

  • Following viral footage from this past week, actor Jonathan Majors and co-star Kilcoyne fell through an unsecured window on the South Carolina set of Run Hide Fight Infidels, leaving Kilcoyne requiring stitches.
  • Hazardous conditions on the production prompted the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees to call a strike on March 26, with more than 60% of the crew signing union cards to demand a collective bargaining agreement.
  • Crew members reported a lack of safety meetings and the involvement of special effects supervisor Chris Bailey, who previously pleaded guilty to illegal possession of explosives, painting a picture of set disarray.
  • Producers for The Daily Wire stated they "don't negotiate with communists" when reached for comment, as Majors seeks a comeback following his 2023 assault conviction and Marvel departure.
  • As production continues with replacement workers in South Carolina, questions persist whether this independent filmmaking experiment justifies Majors' return to cinema after being dropped by Marvel.
