Here is a brief synopsis of �Alexus�:
Anton stars as Gideon, an impulsive, brooding undercover detective, who, along with his watchful veteran partner Daniels (Skinner) must infiltrate the stronghold of Russian kingpin Ivan (George Vincent) to recover a mysterious package from what appears to be a routine drug deal. Everything goes smoothly until Gideon is gunned down and nearly killed during an unsuccessful negotiation. In the encounter, the thugs become suspicious and want to know what's so special about their newly intercepted merchandise. Awakening in a pool of blood, and driven by a rage for justice, Gideon is forced to sacrifice everything -- including the love of his life, his partner and his sanity -- in a desperate effort to retrieve a package that he alone knows is far more precious than himself and maybe even the world.

The piece is a 30-minute short that the producers are planning to turn into a feature. A three issue graphic novel also is being made.
