Nicholas Alexander Chavez will be starring in the Tubi original movie, “Crushed,” set for release next month on the free-to-watch (no subscription necessary) ad-supported streaming service from FOX Entertainment. He’ll be playing the role of Jason in the coming-of-age comedy.
Starring Bebe Wood (“Love, Victor”) as Kate, “Crushed” follows the romantic high schooler as she unsuccessfully tries to get together with Jason during their senior class trip. From there, things spiral out of control.
“So excited for ‘Crushed,'” wrote Chavez on Twitter of his starring as a co-lead in the movie. “Get ready to see a character that is nothing like Spencer. It’s a feature, so I’m not going anywhere ya’ll,” the actor added, clarifying information published by other outlets that incorrectly labeled the project as a series, and so fans knew he wouldn’t be leaving the daytime drama as a result.
The movie also stars Brenna D’Amico (“Descendants: Wicked World”), Valerie Azlynn (“Sullivan & Son”), Kylee Russell (“Zombies: Addison’s Monster Mystery”), Lisa Yamada (“All of Us Are Dead”), Meg Wright (“Jeepers Creepers III”) and Bailey Stender (“Pop Music High”).
“Crushed” is directed by Niki Koss from a script written by Heidi Lux.
Chavez made his professional acting debut in 2021 playing Spencer Cassadine on “General Hospital.”
