NEW YORK—Actor Jonathan Majors was arrested Saturday in New York on charges of strangulation, assault, and harassment, authorities said. On Sunday, an attorney for Majors said there’s evidence that he is “entirely innocent.”

New York City police said that Majors, star of the recently released “Creed III” and “Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania,” was involved in a domestic dispute with a 30-year-old woman. Police responded around 11 a.m. Saturday to a 911 call inside an apartment in the Manhattan neighborhood of Chelsea.
