QWhat happened to Billy Walsh and the movie Lost in the Clouds/Silo?
AAfter Medellin flopped at Cannes, it likely marked the end of Billy's career and because of how he handles criticism and rejection, he left the business on his own. No studio would want to work with him after seeing Medellin. So his deal to make Silo/Lost in the clouds would have fallen through, as nobody would want to see a film that was written, directed, produced and starring the same people from Medellin.In season 7, Billy returns stating that after he walked away from the film business, he went to rehab and even became an ordained minister.
