Movie director

While locked in Alec’s apartment, they are forced to deal with each other’s personalities and their feelings about it.
Max expressed his views on the film: “…connecting electronic dating slash has made the aftermath of being dumped, as Megan used to, easy and private.”
Max Nichols presented the plot of the film to his father Mike, and realized at the same time the film mirrored his story with his own wife, Rachel: ‘he (Max’s father) wisely introduced the subject of whether the relationship between Megan and Alec and ambition was a trap…. In the end we came to the conclusion that they allowed each other to wanting what they really want, rather than what they should want…I first heard that from my wife when we were dating.”
In 2017, Max directed the episode “Oasis” of the series “Day 5”, starring Jesse C. Boyd.
The drama series is set in a post-apocalyptic world, in which a group of people try to fight an epidemic that has affected all of humanity.
Max Nichols is also credited as the director of “Chemistry Lessons” and “Heft,” but said projects are still in post-production and have no release date yet.
