The project centers on overworked assistant Katie Preston (portrayed by Alexandra Krosney) who discovers that her dragon lady boss is missing (or worse). Things get messy fast, with Katie, believing she’ll be the prime suspect, covering up the crime scene. She starts calling the shots in her boss’s “absence,” and goes full CSI to find out what actually happened and exonerate herself.

Alvarez will portray Wyatt, one of Katie’s co-workers at Critical Mass, the chic lifestyle website.

His credits include the short films You Are What I Want, It’s Just a Question and Wave.
