Jafar Panahi Urges Swift Conclusion Of Israel-Iran Violence: 'Both Regimes Should Be Condemned'
Iranian filmmaker Jafar Panahi has urged the UN and wider international community to help end the current violence between Israeli and Iranian forces in an Instagram post, writing that both regimes must be condemned. Panahi shared the lengthy Instagram post yesterday. The post began with the filmmaker writing, 'An attack on my homeland, Iran, is in no way acceptable. Israel has violated Iran and should be tried in an international court as a war aggressor.' See the full post down below. More from Deadline Iranian National TV Headquarters Hit By Israeli Airstrike During Live Broadcast Networks Return To Special Reports On Iran's Retaliatory Strikes On Israel - Update Biden Blasts Trump Over "False" Claims That Aides Ran Country During His Presidency; Current POTUS Admits He Has No Proof For Allegation - Update The filmmaker continued to write that the start of Israel's military campaign in Iran does not negate the 'four decades of mismanagement, corruption, oppression, tyranny, and incompetence of the Islamic Republic.' 'This government has neither the power, will, nor legitimacy required to run the country or manage crises,' the post continued. 'Staying in this regime means the continued fall, the continuation of the repression, and the continuation of the flock! The only way to escape is the immediate dissolution of this system and initiate a people's responsive and democratic government.' Panahi added that 'Both regimes should be blatantly condemned for their persistence of violence, warfare, and absolute indifference to human dignity.' 'Missile attacks, bombardment of residential areas, and targeted killing of civilians are crimes. Morals, politics, and safety are none of the excuses for these crimes. Continuing this cycle of blood and hate will only bring more instability in the world and an expansion of disaster,' he wrote. The filmmaker ended his post by calling on the UN and the 'world community' to force the two countries to 'immediately halt military attacks and end the killing of civilians.' 'Continuing silence and inaction means participating in crime,' he wrote. After years of simmering tensions, Israel and Iran fell into direct conflict last Friday after Israel launched an aerial attack on Iran. Iran labelled the attacks a declaration of war and responded with its own missile campaign. The two countries continue to trade attacks. Panahi has been the most prominent and consistent artistic voice in Iran against the current regime. In 2010, the Iranian government handed him a six-year prison sentence and a 20-year ban on filmmaking for supporting anti-government protests and creating 'propaganda.' However, the filmmaker has continued to work, creating non-fiction and fiction features like his latest film It Was Just An Accident, which won this year's Palme d'Or.

'The Morning Show' star Mark Duplass opens up about battle with depression
Mark Duplass may be best known for playing Chip Black -- the fiercely loyal and often tightly wound executive producer on Apple TV+'s "The Morning Show" -- but offscreen, he's stepping into a different kind of spotlight as an advocate for mental health. The 48-year-old actor, writer and producer recently opened up about his decadeslong struggle with depression and anxiety, which he first addressed publicly in a candid Instagram post in October 2023. Alongside a smiling photo of himself, Duplass wrote at the time, "I have been struggling with anxiety and depression for most of my life…When I see pictures of myself like this one, I can see the fear and sadness behind the smile." In an interview with ABC News' Whit Johnson, which aired on " Good Morning America" Wednesday, Duplass said he didn't expect much from the post. "It's funny, I didn't really see it as something super personal," he recalled. "And I thought, you know, I'll just share this feeling I had. And it was really the response that people had, particularly a lot of men, that made me realize [that] men's mental health in particular might not [have] been as destigmatized as I thought it was." Duplass said his mental health challenges began in his teens, when he experienced panic attacks and tried to muscle through them alone. By his late 20s, he said it reached a breaking point. "I had no skills with which to deal with it," he said. "And I really did, I thought this might be it for me. I might never be normal again." Duplass said therapy and medication became pillars of his recovery, but he said managing his mental health involves more than just clinical treatment. "I learned that I got to get out of bed in the morning," he explained. "I need to make sure I'm sleeping eight to nine hours a night. I need to make sure I'm getting really good exercise. I need to make sure I'm eating healthy, and for me, and this isn't the same for everyone, I needed to demystify the medication." When asked whether he worried that opening up about his mental health journey could affect his career, Duplass admitted the thought crossed his mind. "I thought about it, you know. The last thing I would want is someone who's considering hiring me for a job to think, like, 'Oh man, what happens if he shows up and he's really depressed or anxious one day?'" he said. "I just want to say very clearly, like there is no shame in this. I was so scared to tell people what I was dealing with, and once I did, it deepened all of my relationships and helped my professional career, and that's something I didn't anticipate." Ironically, Duplass said that playing Chip -- a character often pushed to his limits -- feels like portraying a version of himself without the mental health tools on which he now relies. "Playing Chip on 'The Morning Show' is pure fun for me, because the good news is he's way more stressed out than I am," he said. "Chip is basically me without my mental health systems and the medication and what that would feel like." For anyone who is currently struggling with mental health issues, Duplass shared his message of hope, saying, "It's gonna be OK." "In season 2, I was having some mental health issues, and I said, 'Look, I'm struggling with a little bit of this.' And they were so wonderful and so accommodating," he said, adding, "You're probably feeling like there's no way I'm ever going to be normal again. My life is ruined, but that fog is a lie. It's not real. And you will rise above the fog, and it will lift."
