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.

For a lot of TV viewers, Eric Overmyer’s name may not have been the one front and center, but his work was impossible to miss. He was a key figure behind many of television's most enduring crime dramas, bringing a sharp edge to stories about institutions, violence, and the people trying to survive both. In later years, that legacy became especially tied to one of the most beloved detectives on television. Overmyer, the writer-producer who developed Bosch for the screen and helped extend that world with Bosch: Legacy, died on March 16 after an illness, at the age of 74.
