Terence Stamp, star in “Superman” films, dies at 87

British actor Terence Stamp, who famously played arch-villain General Zod in “Superman” and “Superman II,” has died at the age of 87, his family said.
The Oscar-nominated actor died on Sunday morning, his family told Reuters in a statement. The cause was not immediately known.
“He leaves behind an extraordinary body of work, both as an actor and as a writer that will continue to touch and inspire people for years to come,” the statement to Reuters said. “We ask for privacy at this sad time.”

Stamp was born in London’s East End in 1938 to Ethel Esther and Thomas Stamp, a tugboat stoker. After enduring the bombing of London during World War II, Stamp left school to work in advertising before winning a scholarship for drama school, Reuters reported.
“I couldn’t tell anyone I wanted to be an actor because it was out of the question. I would have been laughed at,” he said, according to Reuters.
During his acclaimed career, Stamp starred in films including Pier Paolo Pasolini’s “Theorem,” “A Season in Hell,” and “The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert,” in which he played a transgender woman.
“From wearing the high heels, my spine was completely out of alignment, and it took me about six months to get my spine re-orchestrated,” he told CBS News in 1999 about the downsides of the 1994 film.
Stamp’s most high-profile role was likely as General Zod, the megalomaniacal leader of the Kryptonians, in 1978’s “Superman” and its 1980 sequel “Superman II.” He returned to the Superman world when he played Jor-El in the TV series “Smallville.”
He went on to appear in a string of other films, including “Valkyrie” opposite Tom Cruise, “The Adjustment Bureau” with Matt Damon, “Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace,” and movies directed by Tim Burton.
His final performance was in 2021’s “Last Night in Soho.”
In addition to his acting career, Stamp was an accomplished writer and author.

Prince Harry leaves King Charles ‘furious’ once again

Prince Harry has reportedly left his father King Charles ‘furious’ yet again with his latest move.
Prince Harry has reportedly taken another major step for security in Britain nearly five months after he lost a legal challenge over the levels of security he and his family are entitled to while in the UK.
The Times, citing the royal sources, reported Archie and Lilibet doting father has revived his security battle with the Home Office by writing to the home secretary, Shabana Mahmood, about his case.
The insider claims a formal request has been lodged by Harry with the Royal and VIP Executive Committee (Ravec) which is overseen by the Home Office, asking for a risk-assessment process to be conducted.
The insider claims, “I can confirm that the duke has written to the new Home Secretary asking for a risk management board to be conducted.
Following these reports, the insider tells Rob Shuter for substack ShuterScoop that the ‘fragile’ peace between Prince Harry and King Charles has collapsed — and insiders say Harry’s to blame.
He also reveals that Harry reignited their feud by demanding a new government review of his royal security, blindsiding palace aides.
The fallout has been swift, the expert said and added ‘Charles is furious.’
“He can’t change the rules, and Harry won’t stop pushing”, the insider tells the royal expert.

China denies claims Pakistan sent rare earth samples to US

- Chinese FM spokesperson responds to allegations about Pakistan.
- China, Pakistan remain “all-weather strategic cooperative partners”.
- Denies Pakistan sent rare earth samples linked to Chinese tech.
KARACHI: China has dismissed media reports alleging that Pakistan supplied rare earth samples to the United States, describing such claims as “misinformed, fabricated, or aimed at creating division” between the two nations, The News reported.
These comments were made during a routine press briefing on Monday when a Global Times journalist asked Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lin Jian to respond to allegations that Pakistan had employed Chinese technology to export rare earth materials to the US, leading Beijing to impose stricter export restrictions on related technologies.
Reports in early October claimed that Pakistan had sent its first shipment of enriched rare earth elements and critical minerals to US Strategic Metals, a Missouri-based firm.
Lin said China and Pakistan remain “all-weather strategic cooperative partners” who maintain “high-level strategic mutual trust and close communication on major issues of common interest.”
He added that both sides have discussed Pakistan’s mining cooperation with the US, and that Islamabad had assured Beijing its interactions with Washington “will never harm China’s interests or its cooperation with China”.
Per Lin, the samples shown by Pakistani leaders to US officials were gem ores purchased by staff in Pakistan, not rare earth materials linked to Chinese technology.
Lin added that China’s recently announced export controls on certain rare earth-related technologies “have nothing to do with Pakistan,” describing the move as a “legitimate action” to strengthen export regulations, maintain regional stability, and meet non-proliferation obligations.
Last week, China expanded its export controls on rare earths and related technologies, tightening its grip on global supply chains, Reuters reported.
The new rules, which take effect on November 8 — two days before the current US-China trade truce expires — restrict exports of rare-earth extraction and separation technologies, synthetic diamond powders, single crystals, diamond wire saws and related materials.
