The breakout star of Love Lies Bleeding, Katy O’Brian, is also seeing her fair share of franchise roles. Prior to her latest A24 movie, O’Brian has played parts in projects for Disney like The Mandalorian and Marvel Studios’ Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. She will also be seen in the upcoming Twisters, where she says, “We filmed a tornado movie during tornado season in Tornado Alley.” She would reveal that her character is “a little sillier” than she has been used to, but she won’t go as far as to call it a comic relief role. “I don’t want to say comedic role, and then everyone’s like, ‘She wasn’t funny.’ We’ll say it’s silly and fun.”
Now, according to Deadline, O’Brian is joining the cast of Mission: Impossible 8 as filming continues underway for the Tom Cruise action film. Details surrounding the upcoming...

Chalk this up as more information to add to Everything We Know About Twisters. The muscular star of Love Lies Bleeding has broken out with the A24 film since the roles she’s had on The Mandalorian and Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, but now Katy O’Brian is working out more of her acting muscles in the upcoming natural disaster film, Twisters. Since the announcement of the project, it’s been made clear that the film is not intending to be a direct sequel to the 1996 Jan De Bont blockbuster. However, the Super Bowl spot and trailer for the film do give a nod to Dorothy, the tornado measuring instrument that Jo and Bill (Helen Hunt and Bill Paxton’s characters) constructed and launched.

The family Bill Paxton has settled their wrongful death lawsuit against a Los Angeles hospital and the surgeon who performed on Paxton.
The lawsuit has been ongoing since 2018, the year after Paxton died. It partly alleged that the hospital, Cedars-Senai, and the doctor put the actor in danger by “knowingly performing high-risk and unconventional surgery.” Beginning in 2017, Paxton underwent multiple surgeries, the last of which was for a coronary artery. Eleven days later, Paxton succumbed to a stroke at the age of 61.
According to The Guardian, “Paxton’s family alleged that [the doctor] sought to downplay the procedure’s risks before the actor experienced excessive bleeding, cardiac shock and a damaged coronary artery, ultimately leading to his death.”
Details of the Paxton’s wrongful death lawsuit settlement are unavailable at this time, but The Associated Press reports, citing Paxton’s family’s attorneys, “This matter has been resolved to the mutual satisfaction of the parties.
