There seems to be a curse on the set of the movie Rust. A crew member who was involved in phasing out production is bitten by a poisonous spider and has to fear an arm amputation. Two weeks ago, a camerawoman was killed on set after being struck by a bullet fired by actor Alec Baldwin.

Part of the film, set in Santa Fe, New Mexico, has since been shot, but after the shooting it was decided to stop shooting. Jason Miller, responsible for setting up and dismantling the lighting, among other things, came into contact with the notorious fiddler spider in America during the work.
For several days after the bite, Miller experienced various symptoms, including necrosis on his arm, where skin tissue dies locally, according to Sky News. A fundraiser is said to have started to pay for his hospital costs. “Jason has been hospitalized and has had multiple surgeries every day. Doctors are doing their best to stop the infection and save his arm from amputation.”

A spokesperson for Rust told Sky News: “We are not making any statements about individuals who are part of the cast. We also do not respond to private cases.”
