In May 2007, Sandvoss took on the role of Mason Michael Finch in the indie film Fling (formerly titled Lie to Me), filmed on location in Kansas City, Missouri. The film had its premiere on 26 April 2008, at the Newport Beach Film Festival during the time that Sandvoss was filming a pilot for the Sci-Fi channel, titled "Revolution".
