 Tanzania stepping up crackdown on critics after recent polls, UN warns Tanzania has stepped up its crackdown on opponents after contested elections in October that were marred by deadly violence, the United Nations warned Friday, AFP reported. Rights groups say more than 1,000 people were shot dead during three days of protests over elections on October 29 that the opposition and foreign observers describe as fraudulent. Tanzania's President Samia Suluhu Hassan retained the presidency with 98 percent of the vote, but the main opposition candidates were either jailed or disqualified. "The government has intensified a crackdown against opponents since the vote," UN human rights office spokesman Seif Magango told a press briefing in Geneva.

RACHEL BROSNAHAN, WHO'S SET TO STAR AS LOIS LANE IN JAMES GUNN'S UPCOMING SUPERMAN FILM, HAS DELIVERED SOME HARD TRUTHS ABOUT ACTORS IN THE SUPERHERO MOVIE SPACE.(PHOTO).


 Rachel Brosnahan, who's set to star as Lois Lane in James Gunn's upcoming Superman film, has delivered some hard truths about actors in the superhero movie space.

 In a candid interview with Amanda Seyfried, she called out fellow actors who sign on to big-budget comic book movies only to publicly criticize them when they don't perform well at the box office.


 "I don't know why people say yes [to a project] only to then turn around and complain about it," Brosnahan stated. "Look, I don't want to shit on other actors, but there was a minute where it was cool to not like superhero movies and to look back on projects like this and pooh-pooh them. Do it or don't do it, and then stand by it."

While she didn't name names, her comments seem to reference recent situations like Dakota Johnson's response to Madame 

Web's poor reception, where she blamed creative decisions "made by committee" rather than taking ownership. Chris Hemsworth also criticized Thor: Love and Thunder as being "too silly."


  This trend of actors distancing themselves from failed superhero projects reveals a deeper issue in Hollywood - the lack of accountability when big-budget films don't connect with audiences. Brosnahan's stance is refreshing because it acknowledges that actors have agency in choosing their projects and should stand behind their work, regardless of outcome.
