'Man of Steel' Hair Stylist Sues Over Injury on Set


The plaintiff says she suffered severe injuries after tending to one of the actors between takes.

Cheryl Pickenback, who is listed on iMDb as the key hair stylist for the upcoming blockbuster, Man of Steel, is suing producers after allegedly sustaining injuries on the set.
