NORTH HOLLYWOOD, Calif.—Adult pleasure product titan Doc Johnson is finding that their products are fast becoming a popular staple in movies and TV shows. Most recently the movie Fresno featured hundreds of Doc Johnson's The Great American Challenge, a massive 15-inch purple cock, not only in the movie but also on their movie poster where the two main characters can be seen pushing a laundry cart with The Great American Challenges poking from the top. Fresno debuted at the South by Southwest 2015 festival this past weekend.
Comedy powerhouse Judd Apatow also screened a work-in-progress of his upcoming movie Trainwreck, written by and starring Amy Schumer, at this year's South by Southwest 2015 festival. Trainwreck will feature Doc Johnson products, as well as Doc Johnson print advertisements in a fictitious magazine featured in the film.
The Doc Johnson brand continued its Hollywood momentum when the American Film Institute film Kimi Kabuki featured a plethora of Doc Johnson products on the set of their Adult Industry Expo. With a cast and crew of more than 200 in the movie, Yoko Okumura admits that Kimi Kabuki was an ambitious film. And Doc Johnson was happy to help set the stage with loads of product to complete the adult expo look.
With Fifty Shades of Grey spawning parodies and copycats, it was only a matter of time before Saturday Night Live spoofed the movie as well. A hilarious SNL skit, seen here on YouTube, featured Doc Johnson's very uniqueAmerican Bombshell Rockeye. The scene shows “Christian Grey,” played by Kyle Mooney, showing Dakota Johnson the renovations his Red Room is undergoing, only to discover the contractors aren't finished yet. The American Bombshell Rockeye, with its beautiful Gun Metal grey finish, is held up by one actor as he asks, "Where do I stick these things?"
Doc Johnson's Marketing Manager Sunny Rodgers said she is thrilled to see their products becoming Hollywood hits, "Doc Johnson is excited that our brand strength and exclusive products have great mainstream crossover appeal. We have worked hard to cultivate strong partnerships with Hollywood's top producers and studios, and have become known for being able to supply the unique items necessary to grab the public's attention."
