At the AVN Adult Entertainment Expo, director Ricky Greenwood could be found in Mile High Media’s large booth at the front of The Joint. Fans circulated around the space, attracted by the array of adult performers assembled to represent the company’s many imprints, among them the high-end erotica brands Hard X, Erotica X and Dark X, and the story-driven content of Sweet Sinner and Sweetheart Video.
And speaking of stories, Greenwood has a big one on the way from all-girl studio Sweetheart. The sequel to last year's Confessions of a Sinful Nun—which racked up seven AVN Awards nominations, including Best Drama—it will feature the same main characters as the original and is the second part of a planned trilogy.
Confessions of a Sinful Nun: The Rise of Sister Mona won’t be available until Easter, but fans of forbidden love between sensual convent dwellers can get a peek now at a trailer that Greenwood has just released.
"When we did the first movie, it was a crazy idea I pitched,” Greenwood told AVN on set. “People loved it, people bought it. When I made it, I had in mind a trilogy. It wasn't that obvious, but in this one there's a definite to-be-continued. I call this one my Empire Strikes Back, because everything goes wrong for the main character.”
That character is played by the angelically beautiful Charlotte Stokely, who just claimed the crown for All-Girl Performer of the Year at the 2019 AVN Awards. Stokely reprises her role as Sister Charlotte; Mona Wales is in the title role of Sister Mona; and adult icon Nina Hartley returns as Mother Superior. Rounding out the cast are Magdalene St. Michaels, Kenna James, Lena Paul, Cassidy Banks and Serene Siren.
In the trailer, Stokely is heard talking about the perils that face her fellow unconventional convent dwellers while eerie sounds of chanting form a sonic web underneath her voiceover. The church is bringing down the whip—literally—on these rebel nuns. The new trailer perfectly captures the frisson of the forbidden that made Confessions of a Sinful Nun such a hit.
