Wherever he goes, LEWIS PULLMAN is in his element
Last fall, while filming Apple’s Lessons in Chemistry, adapted from the beloved novel by Bonnie Garmus, showrunner Lee Eisenberg made an on-the-fly change: The actor Lewis Pullman’s turn as Calvin, a progressive, introverted chemist in 1960s Los Angeles, was so winning that Eisenberg wrote him into more episodes than originally planned. Earlier this year, the Top Gun: Maverick scene-stealer wowed festival-goers at Sundance with The Starling Girl and at Tribeca with The Line. As he braces for leading man attention, Pullman reflects on life in and out of Hollywood.
