Entertainment news today is marked by both loss and the growing collision between culture, politics and memory. Marjane Satrapi, the Iranian-French writer and filmmaker behind Persepolis, has died at 56, prompting tributes to an artist whose autobiographical work brought the upheaval of revolutionary Iran to a global audience and broke ground in animation. Elsewhere, public grief has become a political flashpoint in Britain, where Prime Minister Keir Starmer is set to meet the family of murdered student Henry Nowak while accusing Elon Musk of inflaming tensions online over the case. Questions of remembrance also loom in China, where authorities are again warning families of Tiananmen victims not to visit graves on the crackdown’s anniversary. In lighter industry news, Netflix has renewed its animated Devil May Cry for a third and final season, with creators promising a planned ending rather than an abrupt farewell.
