LOS ANGELES — Ryan Reid stars with 2022 XBIZ Male Performer of the Year Mick Blue in the sixth installment of Seth Gamble’s “Reckless” from Wicked Pictures, titled “Don’t Bother Screaming, No One Will Come.”
The eight-episode series is written and directed by twice-crowned and current XBIZ Male Performer of the Year Gamble, who also plays the lead role of Silas Knight.
“’Don’t Bother Screaming, No One Will Come’ delves into the intricate world of enigmatic racing car driver-turned-guru Lucius Volkov (Blue), and secretive CPA Scarlet Page (Reid),” said a rep. “Scarlet is far from the typical accountant, embodying the essence of the old adage ‘she who holds the money holds the secrets.’ Skillfully manipulating her clients into believing she has their best interests at heart, Scarlet’s true intentions are shrouded in mystery, aligning her with the anti-heroes and femme fatales that populate Silas’ shadowy world.”
Gamble enthused about his co-stars.
“This scene unveils more of his character’s backstory,” he said. “He’s a fan of taking shortcuts in life to achieve his ends, and he takes a personal interest in Silas’ tech to gain the edge needed to become the fastest driver on the circuit. Mick Blue, with his successful parallel career as a race car driver, brings authenticity and passion to the role, making him the perfect fit for this character. He gives Volkov a realistic, lived-in appeal.
“Ryan has a charisma that is seductive and enchanting, yet also somewhat mysterious,” he added. “She feels very natural, and a scene like this required someone with the flair of an exhibitionist while still coming across as a woman who keeps her secrets close to the vest.”
Meanwhile, Reid commented on overcoming her initial trepidation to be in the feature.
“‘Reckless’ was something I was so scared to be a part of at first,” she said. “With such a big movie, I didn’t want to let anyone down. But with Seth and (Production Manager) Ryan Ray’s helpful coaching, it was obvious I was only letting myself down with negative thoughts by thinking I couldn’t do it. I really gave it my all and enjoyed every second of it.”
“Don’t Bother Screaming, No One Will Come” is streaming on Wicked.
