I tweeted about this yesterday and everyone was immediately full of suggestions and questions. So instead of answering a lot comments on Facebook and Twitter here is what I know:
Star Wars XXX is currently slated to be shot in late April, right now its a 7 day shoot, is directed by AVN Award winner Axel Braun (Batman XXX, Elvis XXX, Superman XXX), produced by AVN Award winner Eli Cross (Corruption, Upload, Icon) and will be distributed through Vivid. Auditions were held over the last 2 days to which a variety of adult talent – established as well as new faces – attended. The final cast will be announced in a couple weeks. I shot some short interviews and behind-the-scenes footage of the auditions…I will sneak peek a few (one below). During the auditions I joined in to read various parts with the actors as they auditioned, in the one below with Amber Rayne I was reading as Han Solo.
I did not audition, although I would bet that I will end up being an extra somewhere in the movie. Andy and I are doing Production Design – trying to recreate the look of the movie. A task that might prove to be a lot more difficult and challenging than we all had thought. Being that the movie shoots in April we have approximately one month to pull off a herculean task. We will be recreating many sets, locations and props – including the interior of the Millinum Falcon, the Cantina and a Landspeeder.
Being that everyone working on this movie are geeks and grew up with Star Wars you know that this will be as realistic as possible. (Our fearless leader, Producer Eli Cross, is as Uber-geek as they come.) I call out to all geeks to lend any knowledge of things to help out.
Yes, we have seen this:

and we know about this too:
I have been getting a lot of comments about things like “the girl who is cast as Leia needs to look good in a metal bikini” and “is Jabba the Hut being played by Ron Jeremy?” This is Star Wars XXX. Only Star Wars. Empire and Jedi will come later.
I also wanna add a bit about parodies and the law because I am getting asked this alot. Here is a pretty good explanation thats not too thick and legal-like to actually comprehend: http://spankmymarketer.com/parody.html
And finally…
Here is a sneak peek from yesterday’s audition. Amber Rayne is reading for Leia, I am standing in a Han Solo. Enjoy: http://twitvid.com/JWFUZ
More news as it breaks….
PS. Yesterday I posted on Twitter:
“I’m heading downtown to a production meeting and to look at plans for the Death Star”
To which I received the reply: “I misread your Tweet! I thought it said you were looking for PLANTS for the Death Star…”
I think we should go with that. May the Force be with us.
