National Geographic’s “The Hot Zone: Anthrax” is a scientific thriller that will be sure to grab your attention after the first episode.
“The Hot Zone: Anthrax,” inspired by true events, is the second season of the anthology series about deadly diseases. The chilling story takes place in 2001, when the United States was rocked by another deadly act of terrorism, just three weeks after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. Letters containing anthrax were sent to unsuspecting victims in major cities like Florida, Washington, D.C., and New York, targeting major media outlets and politicians.
Meanwhile, the unbelievable crime story unfolds many layers to the horrific events during the 2001 anthrax attacks. The limited series stars Daniel Dae Kim, who plays the lead FBI agent, and Tony Goldwyn, a brilliant microbiologist working closely on the case to uncover the person behind the deadly anthrax letters.
The Knockturnal exclusively sat down with Daniel Dae Kim, Tony Goldwyn, Harry Hamlin, and executive producers/showrunners Kelly Souders, along with Brian Peterson to chat about the intriguing new series.
Kim revealed what it was like playing the lead FBI special agent in “The Hot Zone: Anthrax.”
“It was a big challenge and a challenge that I took seriously…I undertook with respect. These are some hard-working people, who really helped our country when we were in need and they were real people who died as a result of these attacks. So, I approached it with a lot of reverence and respect.”
National Geographic’s scientific thriller, “The Hot Zone: Anthrax” will premiere during a three-night event over Thanksgiving weekend, beginning Sunday, Nov. 28, at 9/8c on National Geographic and will stream on Hulu.

Catch “Crazy Rich Asian” star Awkwafina back in New York City for Season 2 of “Nora from Queens.”
Creator and writer, Awkwafina, continues to navigate her life and young adulthood in outer borough-NYC, as she plays Nora Lin, a role inspired by her real-life growing up in Queens, New York.
The Knockturnal exclusively sat down with “Nora from Queen’s” cast members “Saturday Night Live’s” Bowen Yang, BD Wong, Lori Tan Chinn, executive producers Teresa Hsiao and Karey Dornetto.
We asked the cast and executive producers what we could expect in season 2.
“Nora’s leveled up a little bit with her new job and her personal life,” Hsiao mentioned. “We leaned into some of the more emotional sides in some of our characters in season 2.”
Edmund, Nora’s cousin (Bowen Yang), pursues his dream of acting, her grandma (Lori Tan Chinn) takes a stand, and her father, Wally (BD Wong) goes on a crazy adventure.
The cast members continued to express a few challenges that were faced while filming during the pandemic.
“We faced the normal challenges filming during the pandemic, and our production company and our producers did a wonderful job keeping us on point with the COVID restrictions…we were really lucky to get through that all,” Wong told The Knockturnal.
“All of the Asian hate crimes and the anti-Asian sentiment, all of that stuff was coming out…the entire time we were shooting the show. So, we were really aware of that and wondering what role it plays in the writing of the show. Not a whole lot, because the show is a subtle celebration of Asian-American existence,” Wong concluded. “Just by being there the show plays a positive role in the community’s strength or ability to laugh…be resilient and move on.”
“Awkwafina is Nora From Queens” Season 2 premieres on August 18th, 2021 at 10 PM ET/PT on Comedy Central.
