Instead, she has focused on independent films.
In 2022, she starred in and executively produced the film “Stay Awake.”
In 2023, Metz starred in the Christmas horror movie, “A Creature Was Stirring.”

In January 2025, Metz appeared in the film “Bank of Dave 2: The Loan Ranger.”
However, the movie was only released on Netflix in the UK and in Ireland.
The show is an adaptation of the James Patterson and Candice Fox novel “2 Sisters Detective Agency.

Outside of the arts, Metz also has her own line of wine.

She and winemaker Nicole Walsh started The Joyful Heart Wine Company in 2021.
