LOS ANGELES—The third scene of reigning AVN Male Performer of the Year and acclaimed director Seth Gamble's action saga Reckless dropped today from Wicked Pictures. Produced by four-time AVN Director of the Year Axel Braun, Reckless is an eight-scene epic written, directed by and starring Gamble.
The new episode, "He Was Framed!," delves into the intricate world of master mechanic Brooke Michaels, portrayed by 2022 AVN Best Leading Actress Kenna James, and the enigmatic racecar driver-turned-guru Lucius Volkov, played by 2023 XRCO Male Performer of the Year—and real-life auto racer—Mick Blue. Brooke, grappling with a slow business, sees an opportunity to profit from the groundbreaking chip invented by central tech genius Silas Knight (Gamble in his first lead role for one of his own narrative productions), and already has an investor lined up, leading to an entanglement of interests and desires.
“The goal was to bring together a star-studded cast and thrust viewers into a murder mystery with high stakes for the protagonist,” said Gamble. “It's filled with twists and turns that are guaranteed to keep viewers on edge as they navigate the characters who populate Silas' world and their secret intentions.
“Lucius Volkov is a crossover character from [2023 AVN Grand Reel nominee] Deranged," Gamble continued. “This is actually his character’s backstory. He’s a fan of taking shortcuts in life to achieve his ends. He’s taken an interest in Silas’ tech for purely personal reasons—he wants to give himself the edge needed to be the fastest driver on the circuit. Obviously, I couldn’t conceive of a better person to bring this role to life than Mick Blue, who has pursued a very successful parallel career as a race car driver. He has a true passion for the world of racing.”
“Working on the project Reckless with Seth directing was amazing,” Blue said. “It’s wonderful to work together with lots of talented actors and an amazing director to create something special. The scene with Kenna was one of the great ones. She and I have great chemistry to begin with, and the way it was captured makes this one exceptional.”
Of Blue’s co-star, Gamble added, “Even Kenna James’ most ardent fans are going to be blown away by what she brings to Reckless. It was a given that she’d deliver a sexually explosive performance, but the nuances to Brooke Michaels that she communicates through her acting and mannerisms were nothing short of revelatory. She and Mick delivered in every way possible. Sexually, they are both very intense and passionate performers. They committed 100 percent, and what they delivered surpassed my expectations in every way."
“Working for Seth in Reckless was beyond phenomenal,” enthused James. “I loved everything about his vision, and he made it so easy to bring it to life with such an amazing cast. Mick is definitely one of my favorite performers to work with because he makes it so easy and fun. This was such a fun project and I hope to be a part of many more!”
