Emmy-nominated Actor LEWIS PULLMAN was in Toronto recently for a two-night engagement at Toronto’s Horseshoe Tavern with his Indie band ATTA BOY. The Band, for which he drums, also includes Actress Eden Brolin (daughter of Josh), supported Richy Mitch & the Coal Miners at the intimate show, which drew a packed house both nights.
The son of legendary star Bill Pullman is continuing the family legacy with a superb body of work including very memorable roles in LESSONS IN CHEMISTRY and TOP GUN: MAVERICK. He appears next as Sentry in Marvel‘s THUNDERBOLTS which includes a very star-studded Cast led by Florence Pugh.
Pullman is so down-to-earth and was very casually hanging at the bar throughout the show, chatting with attendees and fans. He was so nice about it, introducing himself to me as if I had no idea who he was. Of course we know who you are, STAR!

Synopsis:
Set in the early 1950s, “Lessons in Chemistry” follows Elizabeth Zott (played by Larson), whose dream of being a scientist is put on hold in a society deeming that women belong in the domestic sphere, not the professional one. When Elizabeth finds herself pregnant, alone and fired from her lab, she musters the ingenuity only a single mother has. She accepts a job as a host on a TV cooking show, and sets out to teach a nation of overlooked housewives – and the men who are suddenly listening – a lot more than recipes… all the while craving a return to her true love: science.
Hailing from Apple Studios, “Lessons in Chemistry” is produced by Aggregate Films. Six-time Emmy Award-nominee Lee Eisenberg (“WeCrashed,” “Little America”) serves as showrunner. The series is executive produced by Academy Award-winner Brie Larson and co-executive producer Elijah Allan-Blitz of their The Great Unknown Productions; Emmy Award-winner Jason Bateman and Michael Costigan (“Ozark,” “A Teacher”) executive produce for Aggregate Films; and, Academy Award-nominee Susannah Grant (“Unbelievable,” “Erin Brockovich”). Natalie Sandy executive produces through Piece of Work Entertainment alongside Eisenberg. Louise Shore also serves as executive producer and Bonnie Garmus serves as co-EP.
