CHARLOTTE, N.C.—AEBN on Tuesday began streaming the groundbreaking new adult film Buck Angel, Superstar, the first FTM performer showcase from TransSensual. AEBN is exclusively streaming the movie before its street date.
Angel, founder of Buck Angel Entertainment, appears in four hardcore erotic encounters directed by Dana Vespoli, who takes on the chance to depart from the usual formula of mainstream adult. With a common interest in exploring the artistic potential of porn, both star and director created Buck Angel, Superstar.
An AVN Hall of Famer, Buck has been in the adult industry since 2004 and balances his busy work schedule with his activism for trans rights as an advocate, educator, lecturer and writer affirming sexual freedom as a fundamental human right. In addition to his adult work and trans advocacy, Buck started a dating website for transgender men, called “Trantastic Storytelling,” which offers transgender people an opportunity to share their experiences, and helped create and develop a sex toy specifically for the FTM community.
Vespoli took inspiration from following Buck’s hectic life on social media. She wanted to show viewers a personal side of Angel that they rarely get to see.
In Buck Angel, Superstar, there’s a darker side of fame: confronting the lonely feeling of becoming a product that the public wants to consume. As a reaction to this isolation and loneliness, Buck turns to superficial hookups. His jetlagged life of constant work, travel, and casual sex is shaken up when he meets Mandy Mitchell, an escort he hires to keep him company on a trip to Los Angeles. Buck Angel, Superstar also stars Aubrey Kate, Tori Mayes, and Chanel Santini.
“Buck Angel is a longstanding influence in the both the adult industry and trans community,” says Matt Gleason of AEBN. “To be able to bring this feature film to AEBN’s and Buck’s dedicated clientele before the general public viewing is very special. No matter what orientation you classify with, we know fans will enjoy how funny and warm he is. With Dana Vespoli’s artistic vision, the performances, and especially Buck himself, Buck Angel, Superstar will be an instant classic!”
