<p>Chinese rapper turned actor Kris Wu has been accused of luring young girls including teenagers into having sex with him. After sex abuse charges surfaced against the Chinese star, a slew of brands have dropped him from being a part of any of their projects.&nbsp;</p>

<p>With the issue gaining momentum, many fans are seeking strict action against the disgraced rapper-actor and are demanding he quit the entertainment industry and leave the country for good.&nbsp;</p>

<p>It all started with 19-year-old former fan Du Meizhu claiming that the 30-year-old Kris lured her to his home with the promise of an audition but fed her alcohol and had sex with her even after she had blacked out. Du has also claimed that she knows of at least eight other women with similar stories and experiences with Kris Wu.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Kris Wu first became famous as a member of popular K pop boy band Exo. He then tried his luck in China as a model, singer and actor. He soon became the face of many major lucury labels and became a part of several Chinese box office hits as an actor -- Mr Six, Journey to the West: The Demons Strike Back and Hollywood films like Vin Diesel’s ‘xXx: Return of Xander Cage’ and Luc Besson’s mega-budget misfire ‘Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets’.</p>

<p>All labels have dropped Kris including Louis Vuitton that issued a statement that it “takes the allegations against Kris Wu very seriously and has suspended its relationship with Kris Wu until the outcome of the judicial investigation is known.” Bulgari and Porsche also have since cut ties.</p>

<p>On Monday, Wu made his first statement in response to the allegations, writing on Weibo, the Twitter-like platform of China: “I didn’t respond earlier because I didn’t want to interfere with judicial proceedings… but I cannot bear it anymore. If I’ve done any of the things [she claims], I will take myself to jail.”<br />

Character posters of the upcoming film ‘Dune’ released today and we must say all actors look real good in their form. The upcoming sci-fi tentpole has been in the news ever since it was announced and curiosity around it has always remained the same even after the film hit a deadlock over the pandemic restrictions et al. Starring Timothee Chalamet, Zendaya, Jason Momoa, Oscar Isaac and a whole lot of other actors, the film directed by Denis Villeneuve is an update of Frank Herbert’s novel which was turned in into a 1984 movie by David Lynch. ‘Dune’ stars Timothée Chalamet, Rebecca Ferguson, Oscar Isaac, Josh Brolin, Stellan Skarsgård, Dave Bautista, Sharon Duncan Brewster, Stephen McKinley Henderson, Zendaya, Chang Chen and David Dastmalchian, with Charlotte Rampling, Jason Momoa and Javier Bardem. The character posters revealed today include those of Timothee Chalamet who stars as Paul Atreides; Zendaya as Chani; Ferguson as Lady Jessica; Momoa as Duncan Idaho; Isaac as Duke Leto Atreides; Bardem as Stilgar; Brolin as Gurney Halleck; and Skarsgård as Baron Vladimir Harkonnen. The film is set to have its world premiere at the Venice Film Festival in September before it hits theaters and HBO Max on October 22, 2021. The plot centers on Atreides, a brilliant and gifted man born into a great destiny beyond his understanding, who must travel to the most dangerous planet in the universe to ensure the future of his family and his people. As malevolent forces explode into conflict over the planet’s exclusive supply of the most precious resource in existence — a commodity capable of unlocking humanity’s greatest potential — only those who can conquer their fear will survive.
