Axel Braun Begins Production on “24″ Porn Parody

LOS ANGELES (February 14, 2014) — Four-time AVN Director of the Year Axel Braun announced today that he has started filming an adult parody of the popular Fox hit show 24.

“I’m a huge Jack Bauer fan, and I’m incredibly excited about this project,” said Braun, “I’ve been wanting to do this for years, and now with Fox bringing 24 back in May, the timing is perfect.”

The Emmy Award-winning TV show starring Kiefer Sutherland ran for 8 successful seasons from 2001 to 2010, redefining television with its real-time ticking clock format and kinetic camerawork, and it is now scheduled for a brand new 12-episode run starting May 5, 2014.

“It’s a great show with a large and loyal fan base” said Wicked Pictures owner Steve Orenstein. “Axel is a 24 fanatic, so he’s incredibly invested in this project and has put together a terrific cast, which suggests this parody has all the ingredients to become a very successful one.”

While casting for an Axel Braun porn parody is typically a lenghty process, the director never had any doubts on who would play the iconic CTU agent: “Kurt Lockwood was honestly my first and only choice for the part.” said Axel, who launched Lockwood’s adult career in 2002 when he cast him as the lead in his seminal 35mm feature Compulsion. “Kurt is a terrific actor with a tremendous work ethic, a top-tier performer, and he also happens to be a dead-ringer for Kiefer, so he really was a perfect fit.”

Lockwood offered equal praise for his director: “I was a big fan of the series and I feel very fortunate not only to be given the opportunity to tackle such a challenging acting role, but especially to work again with the Maestro himself, Axel Braun, more than a decade after he directed me in the role that garnered my first ever AVN Award. Playing the porn version of Jack Bauer is a dream come true for me, and I am absolutely stoked!”

The stellar female cast includes Wicked contract girl Kaylani Lei as Michelle Dessler, Alektra Blue as Nina Myers, Claire Robbins as Chloe O’Brian, Penny Pax as the deadly female assassin Mandy, Brie Simone as Sherry Palmer and ABP contract superstar Riley Steele as Kim Bauer, the role originated by Elisha Cuthbert.

“I love the show, and Elisha is such a hottie!” said Steele with a big smile. “This movie will have the same look and feel of the original TV show, and the script is super funny without being stupid or disrespectful. Axel is always very adamant about making sure the audience can laugh with the characters and not at them, and I respect that just as much as I appreciate being a part of such an awesome cast!”

24 XXX: An Axel Braun Parody will hit stores on DVD in May.
