Brad Armstrong’s Wicked smash hit The Rocki Whore Picture Show: A Hardcore Parody was a big winner at the 29th Annual AVN Awards Show.
“Rocki Whore” won the top prize in its field, Best Parody Comedy, before earning a well-deserved Best Director – Parody statue for Armstrong and receiving such other major awards as Best Screenplay – Parody, Best Editing, Best DVD Extras, Best Art Direction, Best Make-Up, Non-Sex Performance and Best Overall Marketing Campaign – Individual Project.
While the visionary filmmaker’s initial entry into the parody genre is still enjoying brisk sales, Armstrong is already moving forward with his next big-budget sci-fi spoof: Men In Black: A Hardcore Parody. This spectacular special effects laden mega-production has been shooting this week at locations in and around Los Angeles.
Armstrong’s newest project has already attracted some very noteworthy talent, including retired adult film sensation Randy Spears.
The gifted actor is returning to the X-rated screen as a gruff, no-nonsense ramrod-straight alien tracker. Of the exciting casting news, Armstrong enthuses, “It’s a great role and so crucial to the story that I didn’t want to make it a non-sex part. I’m very happy that Randy is returning to the business just for this performance – I really feel he’ll be a perfect fit.”
Spears’ younger, gender-hopping sidekick will be played gifted industry actor Ethan Hunt.
In other casting news, 2012 AVN award-nominated Wicked Girl™ Alektra Blue has been cast as a shape-shifting alien queen, while 2012 XRCO and AVN award winning Wicked Girl™ jessica drake will be portraying a drop-dead gorgeous alien villain.
And speaking of aliens, 2012 AVN award nominated Wicked Girl™ Kaylani Lei will be slipping into the sexy tunic of an intergalactic ambassador.
For the gruff head of the covert alien-trackers, Armstrong is enlisting the services of James Bartholet, recent winner of AVN’s 2012 Best Non-Sex Performance trophy for his performance in The Rocki Whore Picture Show: A Hardcore Parody.
In total, the director will be employing a cast of forty humans and aliens in his latest super-production; other performers confirmed to be appearing include Misty Stone, India Summer, Isis Taylor, Tommy Pistol, Wolf Hudson and Xander Corvus. And director Armstrong will be taking on a role himself, rounding out a stellar cast that also includes Mia Lelani, Nicole Aniston, Prince Yahshua and many more.
The special effects required to create the movie’s extraterrestrial characters are presenting the filmmaker with some unique – and expensive – production challenges.
“To create our aliens, we’re working exclusively with mainstream special effects artists. Some of them are people I’ve collaborated with before on my earlier science fiction projects like Euphoria, while some are brand new to me.”
Armstrong’s supervising the intricate work of several different special effects departments. In the finished film, computer generated imagery, special effects make-up creations and practical effects will seamlessly blend to bring the bizarre monsters, invading aliens and futuristic hardware to XXX life.
