Chris is a Senior News Writer for Collider. He can be found in an IMAX screen, with his eyes watering and his ears bleeding for his own pleasure. He joined the news team in 2022 and accidentally fell upwards into a senior position despite his best efforts.
For reasons unknown, he enjoys analyzing box office receipts, giant sharks, and has become known as the go-to man for all things Bosch, Mission: Impossible and Christopher Nolan in Collider's news division. Recently, he found himself yeehawing along to the Dutton saga on the Yellowstone Ranch.
He is proficient in sarcasm, wit, Photoshop and working unfeasibly long hours. Amongst his passions sit the likes of the history of the Walt Disney Company, the construction of theme parks, steam trains and binge-watching Gilmore Girls with a coffee that is just hot enough to scald him.
His obsession with the Apple TV+ series Silo is the subject of mockery within the Senior News channel, where his feelings about Taylor Sheridan's work are enough to make his fellow writers roll their eyes.

It has been a long wait for fans of Taylor Sheridan's Lioness, but the show has finally hit a major milestone. After months of production and nearly two years of waiting since Season 2 aired in late 2024, Taylor Sheridan’s spy thriller has officially wrapped filming on Season 3. Paramount+ still has not announced a premiere date, but this is the biggest sign yet that the series is moving toward its return.
The update comes from the cast themselves. Jill Wagner, who plays Bobby, shared a post on Instagram confirming that the season is finished and sounding very excited about what is coming.
“To try to capture the last 5 months in 20 pics is impossible ….. season 3 was EPIC. Every single moment was golden to me. I am fully aware that I am living in ‘the sweet spot’ and I’m allowing myself to drench myself in it. I love my Lioness cast [and] crew.
"I love TS for writing such an amazing show … I love the good people of Texas who treated me and my family with kindness …. I love my friends who cheer me on and who have watched me hustle and understand the highs and lows of this business, I love my family who tag along while I chase dreams ….. I love Jesus Christ who gives me the heart to keep running. There is a reason I do what I do …. I’m finding it day by day.”
James Jordan also marked the end of production with a simpler message of his own, posting, “Thank you [Lioness] we did it.” Taken together, the two posts leave very little doubt that Season 3 is now fully in the can.

Is 'Lioness' Worth Watching?
Collider’s review, by Michael John Petty, stated that Lioness Season 2 justified its own existence more than expected, even if it didn’t quite match the self-contained power of the first installment. After Season 1 ended on an emotionally devastating note for Joe (Zoe Saldaña), the new season expanded the scope of the narrative while doubling down on the show’s core tension: the impossible balance between duty to country and duty to family.
"Lioness is based on the real-life team, after all, and while the series differs from the true story, its commitment to examining the genuine psychological effects of these operations is both admirable and daunting. As civilians, it can be challenging to try to understand the sorts of hardships those in the U.S. Armed Forces face, and Lioness does its best to show how all of that plays out — both in the field and off it. Season 2 is certainly a step in the right direction for this series and leads us to hope Sheridan will pursue more thriller projects in the future."
The first two seasons of Lioness are streaming now on Paramount+ in the US.
