In December, TRPWL was proud to present an exclusive first look at the artwork for Axel Braun’s ‘Barbarella XXX’. We’re thrilled to report that the trailer lives up to the hype.

Wicked Pictures is pleased to announce that 2015 AVN Best Director-Parody winner Axel Braun has released the first trailer for his highly anticipated release Barbarella XXX: An Axel Braun Parody. A perfect synthesis of Braun’s legendary attention to detail and the high production values consumers have come to expect and demand from Wicked, the safe-for-work preview can be viewed online at http://youtu.be/kH4yPS6Qlq0 

Barbarella XXX marks the debut of Wicked Comix, a new imprint dedicated exclusively to comic book parodies, all helmed by four-consecutive-time AVN Director of the Year Braun, who’s currently in production on the imprint’s second movie,  Batman v Superman XXX: An Axel Braun Parody.

A campy, tongue-in-cheek spoof of Jean-Claude Forest’s classic sci-fi comic strip and  Roger Vadim‘s 1968 film adaptation, Braun’s upcoming release stars ABP contract girl and 2015 AVN Favorite Female Porn Star Riley Steele in the titular role made famous by Jane Fonda. Her co-stars include Wicked Pictures contract star Asa Akira as The Great Tyrant and adult industry legends Tera Patrick and Ron Jeremy, both of whom appear in the new trailer.

“It’s no secret that I had a ball shooting this movie, but editing it was even more fun,” enthuses Braun, who even wrote and performed the film’s hilarious title song. “Barbarella XXX is so over the top, and colorful, and sexy…Riley carries the movie like the superstar that she is, and Asa’s performance is so intense and hilarious at the same time that in all of her scenes it was really difficult picking which take was better. Since I announced the movie, the response has been overwhelming, I guess there’s something about Barbarella that really resonates with the fans, and I hope they’ll enjoy the trailer.”

For her part, Ms. Steele more than shares Braun’s enthusiasm. “Axel showed me the trailer a few days ago, and I was just beyond flabbergasted! There I was, floating in zero gravity in my pink fur spaceship,” she raves in reference to the trailer’s spoof of Jane Fonda’s iconic floating strip-tease sequence. “You also get to see me making out with Asa Akira and sharing the screen with Tera Patrick! I’m so totally proud of this movie, and my fans have been very vocal about wanting to see it, so I literally can’t wait for it to come out! It’s gonna be amazeballs!” As part of the film’s marketing roll-out, Steele signed Barbarella XXX material at the 2015 Adult Entertainment Expo in Las Vegas, where she appeared at the Wicked Pictures booth, greeting the massive crowds in her full Barbarella costume.

For Wicked Pictures contract superstar and 2015 AEE Keynote Speaker Asa Akira, Braun’s new film gave her an opportunity to flex her muscles in new directions. “I had a wonderful time playing The Great Tyrant for Axel,” she enthuses, “Between the elaborate set, beautiful wardrobe, and crazy hot sex with Riley, I feel very lucky to have been a part of this big, fun production. Parodies are not something I get to do often, so this was a new and exciting experience for me. I can’t wait to see the finished product!”

The cast also includes ebony starlet Chanell Heart, Jessica Ryan, hot newcomer Rachael Madori, and AVN Best Actor nominee Kurt Lockwood, whose last collaboration with the director, 24 XXX: An Axel Braun Parody, became the first parody in AVN Awards history to win the coveted Movie of the Year award.

Barbarella XXX: An Axel Braun Parody will hit stores on DVD in March 2015.
