Penthouse magazine is searching for Pet of the Month candidates and models for magazine pictorials, as well as talent to be featured in Penthouse-branded videos.
The search will kick off in Los Angeles with an open casting call on December 14, followed by searches in New York and Miami, with dates to be announced later.
The Penthouse-branded videos will be made by Penthouse Films, a subsidiary of Penthouse Media Group Inc. Several new lines of videos will be launched as part of the new ownership’s plan to revive the Penthouse brand
Penthouse publisher General Media filed for bankruptcy in August 2003, after taking heavy hits from lawsuits, failure to diversify into other mediums as the print magazine market began to tailor off, among other reasons.
Marc Bell Capital Partners, which held the vast majority of General Media’s debt, foreclosed and were left holding the company’s assets after they were unable to find a buyer. Rather than let one of the best-known brands in adult go to waste, Marc Bell Capital Partners decided to revive the brand themselves.
