LOS ANGELES—Bad Babes Inc., the original comedy written and directed by Will Ryder, leads all original movies at this year’s AVN Awards with 12 nominations.
“The simple fact for me is it truly sucks to go to Las Vegas and know you're not in contention for AVN Awards,” Ryder said earlier this year. “I'm not ever letting that happen again.”
The Adam & Eve Pictures feature film stars Katie Morgan as a blindsided stay-at-home wife who receives her ex-husband's porn company in the divorce settlement. The movie is nominated in a variety of categories, including Best Actress, Best Screenplay, Best Comedy and Best Director.
“I’m so thankful for being cast in this role because it was such a great part for me and I really related to my character,” Morgan said. “The script was fantastic and I loved it the instant I read it and I'm so happy to be nominated by AVN.”
The movie is nominated for Best Comedy, Best Actress - Katie Morgan, Best Supporting Actress - Luna Star, Best Supporting Actor - Alec Knight, Best Non-Sex performance - Frank Bukkwyd, Best Non-Sex Performance - Sarah Vandella, Best Screenplay - Will Ryder, Best Editing - Hollywood Max, Best Make-up - Cammy Ellis, Best Art Direction, Best Marketing Campaign and Best Director Feature Movie - Will Ryder.
“It’s the best adult movie of the year,” said Ryder. “I can say that with a straight face because I'm biased as hell and it's not good to mess with cold hard facts. Truth is, we had a stellar cast led by Katie and she absolutely killed it. The entire cast and crew exceeded my lofty expectations and the list of award nominations is remarkable. I'm so proud of my team and thankful for AVN and Adam & Eve Pictures.”
