LOS ANGELES—With the release of trailers and photo galleries for Wicked Pictures’ Magic Mike XXXL: A Hardcore Parody, several mainstream websites have expressed interest in the parody, which releases on July 1—the same date as the mainstream Hollywood version.
Already, the trailers and photos for the adult film version have appeared on Cosmopolitan.com, Uproxx.com, TheFrisky.com, and FilmDrunk.com.
Directed by Brad Armstrong, Magic Mike XXXL: A Hardcore Parody features Derrick Pierce as Mike, Ryan McLane as Dallas, Tommy Gunn as Big Dick Richie, Ryan Driller as Ken, Dick Chibbles as Tarzan, Seth Gamble as The Kid, and Tony Martinez as Tito. The movie also includes Wicked Pictures contract stars Jessica Drake and Asa Akira, as well as Rob Piper, Misty Stone, India Summer, Jessa Rhodes, Kendra Lust, Adriana Chechik, Katrina Jade, Amirah Adara, Maddy O’Reilly, and Bridgette B.
In early June, women’s lifestyle site TheFrisky.com ran a side-by-side comparison of the porn parody’s actors with Hollywood’s actors. Editor Amelia McDonnell-Parry wrote, “Magic Mike XXL gets you all worked up, [and] Magic Mike XXXL will finish you off, if you know what I mean …”
Uproxx.com contributor Mark Shrayber called “Amazing!” Shrayber wrote, “The movie is a high-budget feature that’s being marketed toward a female audience. And yes, there are dance numbers. Lots and lots of dance numbers. More dance numbers than you’ve ever really imagined a triple-x feature to have, really, which is kind of an awesome feat.”
The parody has also been featured on numerous radio stations, including 92.5 Kiss FM, 95.1 ZZO FM, and z100, as well as international sites Metro.co.uk, BBCNewsDay.com and Terra.es.
Magic Mike XXXL: A Hardcore Parody is a combination of both Hollywood movies, as director Brad Armstrong was able to parody parts of the sequel’s plot through trailers and media articles. Armstrong, a former stripper, also drew upon his own experiences to make Magic Mike XXXL as realistic as possible. Having almost parodied the original in 2012, it was ultimately the sequel’s title that inspired Armstrong to follow through and begin production.
