SILO---co-star Steve Zahn commented on Seasons 3 and 4 of the Apple TV series, “Season 3 is still in post. It’s coming out. I don’t know when. It’s a complicated show. There’s a lot going on as far as visual effects. We’re in [Season] 4 right now. We’re in the middle of 4, and it’s the biggest show. There’s so much going on. Season 4 is really cool. There’s a lot in 4. It spreads out all over. It gets really cool. There’s a lot of action.”
SEVEN SISTERS---Elizabeth Olsen stars in the Hulu tv series whose synopsis says, "...a large, tight-knit family that begins to unravel when one sister, Adrienne (Olsen), starts communicating with a voice no one else can hear, forcing them to confront long-buried secrets."
SOULM8TE---the Blumhouse/Universal Pictures M3GAN spinoff movie has been shelved due to M3GAN 2.0 being a box office bomb and will be shopped to other studios.
TRIVIA---character actress Allison Hayes is best known for starring in the 1958 cult classic sci fi movie ATTACK OF THE 50 FOOT WOMAN in which played a woman, who is transformed into a giant 50 foot woman by an alien from outer space, and goes on a rampage. Later in her career, Hayes began taking doctor-prescribed imported bone meal calcium supplements. This led to erratic behavior, suicidal thoughts and she had to walk with a cane which led to a decline in her career. After reading a medical book about factory workers who suffered from lead poisoning, who had symptoms similar to hers, Hayes hired a toxicologist to test her bone meal calcium supplements. The toxicologist found toxic levels of lead in the supplement and concluded Hayes was probably suffering from lead poisoning. This led to Hayes requesting that the FDA ban the bone meal calcium supplements.
In 1978, Hayes died from leukemia, which was most likely a result of her lead poisoning. Ironically, after she died, the FDA sent her a letter saying that as a result of her request, the FDA was adding regulations on the sale of of imported nutritional supplements.
