Another crew member from the movie Rust has been hospitalised, this time for a spider bite.

Doctors are trying to save the arm of Jason Miller, a pipe rigger and lamp operator on the film's wrap team, according to a GoFundMe page launched on his behalf last Friday (Nov 5). He was bitten by a brown recluse spider while working on the set.
