✨ ROLE: EVIE HARTWOOD
Evie Hartwood is fire in slow motion — not the kind that burns down a building, but the kind that smolders until everything underneath is ash. She’s all eyeliner and earbuds, sarcasm and survival. Think: death stares in dim lighting. But beneath that armor is a grief so ancient it’s practically holy.
This role appears in:
• Alice Across The Land, a surreal, character-driven mystery
• Before The Fuel, an intense standalone film (in development) centering on Evie’s backstory and spiral

💬 FROM THE CREATOR
Evie is loud — but she is unforgettable. Her silence says more than most people’s speeches. She wears grief like a second skin, but she never lets it take her out. If you’ve ever been the quiet one who’s still the center of the storm — we want to see your version of her.
