LOS ANGELES, Calif.—Leaping in under the wire for the award season deadline, seven-consecutive-time AVN Best Parody Winner Axel Braun and Wicked Comix have released what will surely be one of the biggest movies of 2017: Justice League XXX: An Axel Braun Parody. This ambitious mega-production makes its VOD debut today, nearly two months before the Hollywood rendition featuring Ben Affleck, Gal Gadot and Henry Cavill arrives in cinemas.
"I’m absolutely stoked, and immensely proud!” said the four-consecutive-time AVN Director of the Year. “This is a big movie that truly engages on all levels, and definitely my most complex script."
The script surely won’t be the only complex aspect of Braun’s movie. Fans should be rewarded with the director’s reliable ability to deliver high production values and meticulous attention to detail, particularly in the costume department.
As the poster for the legendary director's masterwork declares, "it's time to come together," and Braun has assembled a cast of award-winning performers, all of whom have been charged with the responsibility of giving audiences a sensual immersion into an expanded "DC AxelVerse." Wicked Comix veteran Ryan Driller returns as the Man of Steel for the eighth time, taking the role that has defined his career to new heights through a nuanced performance, while Romi Rain shatters expectations as the mighty Wonder Woman.
"I am so excited to be a part of Axel’s Justice League!” said Rain, “Playing Wonder Woman and even just wearing the costume are some of the most fun memories in my career! I had the opportunity not only to stretch my acting abilities with a phenomenal script but also to have some amazing sex with my fellow heroes. Everyone involved gave the movie everything they had, and I’m sure the fans will come together and enjoy it!"
With Giovanni Francesco reprising his award-winning role as the Dark Knight, and three-time AVN Best Actress jessica drake returning as the inquisitive Cat Grant, Justice League XXX's supporting cast includes Tyler Nixon and reigning AVN Best Actor Xander Corvus as The Flash and Green Lantern, respectively, as well as Derrick Pierce coming back as Lex Luthor and Katrina Jade once again playing his faithful and brutally sexy assistant Mercy Graves. Rising starlet Lena Paul delivers a compelling non-sex performance as Superman’s loyal childhood girlfriend Lana Lang, and there’s even a cameo by director Dana Vespoli, crossing over her award-winning character “Lefty" from the eponymous 2016 movie. But most notably, in a much-talked-about adult casting stroke, the first openly lesbian superhero in the DCEU, Batwoman, is played with gusto by Charlotte Stokely in a performance that so impressed Braun he has already announced plans for a Batwoman solo parody.
“I think, symbolically, I am Batwoman!" enthused Stokely, who developed a special connection with her character. “Most men in my family have been in the military for generations, and I’ve learned from them in many ways. I am also gay, I love women and I always will … and when the costume is all zipped up and I put on the cowl it becomes a deeper kind of transformation. Having this role and knowing that the character will get to have her own spin-off is massively exciting, and I am so thankful to Axel for the immense amount of work and dedication he put in this project … it definitely paid off, the movie absolutely exceeds all expectations!"
The mega-budget production's trailer has already earned more than half a million views since debuting just a week ago on Youtube.com. The safe-for-work clip may be viewed here.
Justice League XXX has been the subject of global mainstream media attention for months, with author Anka Radakovich writing about the film for Sexpert.com, while additional coverage has appeared in outlets as diverse as Inverse, Men's Health, Cinema Blend, Cosmic Book News, Die-Screaming.com, Neogaf.com, Comicbook.com, Comicsblog.fr and many other sites.
A nonstop thrill ride made by fans, for the fans, Justice League XXX: An Axel Braun Parody is a seductive take on the expanded DCU. The 155-minute movie went live today on AxelBraun.com, as well as on several premium VOD sites such as AdultDVDEmpire.com, Popporn.com, HotMovies.com and Gamelink.com. Wicked Comix will unveil a collector's edition DVD box set on October 25. The two-disc, gatefold-packaged set will be the label's most elaborate release to date, boasting a plethora of added-value content, including a full-color 11x17 movie poster, a collectible card set, three bonus scenes, and an hour-long non-sex version.
"Axel is driven by a compulsive need to constantly top himself, and amazingly with Justice League XXX he has once again done that,” said Wicked Pictures owner Steve Orenstein. "This movie presented Axel with more obstacles than any in the past, but in the end it turned out to be quite possibly his best work. He shares a deep connection with the source material, and crafted an exceptional movie that the fans will be as proud of as we are."
