Lodge 49: Dud looks for magic in California but Wyatt Russell finds it instead

Wyatt Russell is everything in the new quirky show - charming, flawed and maddeningly aimless. He makes the perfect Dud.
PUBLISHED AUG 18, 2018

It isn't unusual for a person born into a famous family to be a superstar in Hollywood. Just look at Hailey Baldwin. She's a shining example of how things roll once you are surrounded by famous family members. Although uncommon, once in a blue moon, the stars don't align for some. Wyatt Russell, the son of actors Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn was that one off apple that fell far from the tree. Not in terms of talent, of course. He has almost always ended up chewing on the bones of every meaty show he was in - far away from the spotlight, lurking in the dark hallways by being the sidekick's friend.
