Studio 2000 Releases ‘Chris Steele Superstar’

SAN FRANCISCO - Before he became an award-winning director and a partner in gay adult studio Jet Set Men, Chris Steele was known as a rugged, ripped, masculine performer. Studio 2000 has compiled nine of Steele's best scenes - plus new material including audio commentary, the star's original audition footage and an early strip-show performance - into a two-disc DVD set: Chris Steele Superstar.

Including the DVD extras, the material runs more than two hours.

Showcased among the hardcore performances are Steele's work in Studio 2000 titles like Uncle Jack (with Peter Wilder and Cody Matthews), Night Riders (with Nick Savage), Trust Me (with Buddy Jones and Drew Peters), Czech Point (with Steve Harper, Thomas Lloyd and Pavel Novotny), and Cadet (with John Ross).

"I was happy to work with Studio 2000 on this project," Steele said. "This is more than just a greatest-hits collection: We recorded audio commentary, shot a new interview and they unearthed lost footage. Having now seen the two-disc set, I'm impressed with its quality. I think my fans will love it, and hopefully we'll win over a lot of new ones, too."

Chris Steele Superstar is the first title in Studio 2000's new Superstar line. Subsequent collections will feature DC Chandler, Ace Hanson, Trevor Knight and Sonny Markham. All will be released in plastic-free, 100-percent recyclable packaging designed not only to be environmentally sustainable but also to thwart piracy.

The title is available at the studio's website.
