Part 3/6:
Tenoch Huerta: New Controversy in Wakanda Forever
Adding fuel to the fire is the recent allegation against Tenoch Huerta, who gained global fame playing Namor in "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever." Huerta, a Mexican actor, has been accused of sexual assault by Mexican saxophonist and activist Maria Elena Rios. The accusations surfaced on social media, with Rios sharing a series of public tweets outlining her claims.
While Rios' statements are at times tangled with critiques of the organization Piedad Pietro, which she criticizes for allegedly protecting Huerta, the core accusation revolves around historical allegations of emotional abuse and abuse of power. Rios characterized Huerta as a narcissist and manipulative figure, though she did not reveal detailed specifics of her allegations.
