Felix Solis is expanding his jewelry collection…
The 52-year-old New York-born Puerto Rican actor, film director and film producer will star in The Necklace, a horror film from director Juan Pablo Arias Munoz.
Solis will star alongside Jacob Moran, Madeleine McGraw and Violet McGraw in the project, which will head into production in Atlanta in late May
Written by John Ducey, The Necklace watches as the Davis family navigates through tough times in 1960. Laura Davis has separated from her husband Frank due to his unpredictable temper, fueled by alcohol. As Laura returns to work as a nurse, her daughters, 11-year-old Ellen (Violet McGraw) and 16-year-old Judy (Madeleine McGraw), grapple with the changes in their family dynamics. The plot thickens when Frank attempts to win Laura back with a beautiful antique necklace, which turns out to be a conduit for the tormented soul of an evil boy from long ago, putting Laura and her daughters in grave danger.
Solis will play the role of Detective Callahan.
Daniel Aspromonte and Christina Moore will produce the film, with Violet McGraw, Madeleine McGraw, Jackie McGraw and Ali Afshar serving as executive producers.
Best known for his role as cartel boss Omar Navarro on Netflix’s Ozark, Solis has more recently been seen playing the FBI’s Matthew Garza on The Rookie and The Rookie: Feds, as well as in Netflix’s Unfrosted.
Previously the actor has also been seen on shows like City on Fire, Charmed and The Good Wife, along with such films as Netflix’s Tallulah and the Richard Gere drama Arbitrage.
Most recently, Solis signed on to star alongside Naomi Watts, Bill Murray and Owen Teague in the dramedy The Friend, which is based on Sigrid Nunez’s New York Times bestseller. He’s also set to appear in the second season of Netflix’s spy series The Recruit from creator Alexi Hawley.
