LOS ANGELES—"'True Detective' Casts Porn Stars for Colossal Orgy Sequence," screams the Hollywood Reporter headline, making it sound as though the "Eyes Wide Shut-caliber orgy sequence... shot over the past few days in a Pasadena mansion" for the show's highly-anticipated second seaon, was an actual x-rated affair. Sadly, no.
HBO was not in any mood to talk about porn stars, and THR's Emmet McDermott says "all participants have signed nondisclosure agreements that prevent them from discussing their work on the secretive series created by Nic Pizzolatto," but that didn't stop "sources" from informing him that adult performers "Amia Miley and Peta Jensen, both 24, were hired for a deliriously vast, Eyes Wide Shut-caliber orgy sequence involving dozens of naked bodies."
"Funny twist," adds McDermott. "The adult actresses apparently are among the few people who actually don't get totally naked."
It also turns out that the fact that they are adult performers may have been a coincidence. McDermott adds that "a source says the production didn't hire Miley and Jensen for their porn experience. The women signed up with the extras casting service the show is using and were employed along with dozens of other men and women willing to strip down for the Emmy-winning drama."
Much ado, but it certainly sounds like a fun gig for all involved no matter what they do for a living.
