Superman XXX Casts Gay Porn Star in Role of Clark Kent

Vivid Entertainment has announced that Ryan Driller has been cast in the role of Superman / Clark Kent for the upcoming porn parody Superman XXX.  The tricky part is that Vivid also cast Jeremy Bilding for the part.  You see, Jeremy Bilding is the name Ryan Driller uses when he does gay porn movies.


Ryan has a substantial history in gay porn under his previous identity, Jeremy Bilding, before more recently trying to make the jump into straight porn.  His credits include such films as Gridiron Gang Bang, Summer Bareback Orgy and Men Hard at Work 5.  


Followers of Driller on Twitter knew that seeing him have sex in a Superman suit was only a matter of time, as the Porn Stars has always been a fan of the Man of Steel and has always wanted to play Superman.  


This bit of casting is a hard one for gfest to swallow (pun intended).  The guy definitely has the classic iconic look of Superman, he clearly has experience maintaining dual identities, he has a love for the character, and he even likes skydiving which will allow Director Axel Braun to shoot some flying scenes for the film.  But this isn't the sequel to Superman Returns, this is Superman XXX.  Is casting a gay porn star in such a high profile role in a straight porn movie a good idea?

Well Vivid Entertainment sure thinks so, and their company is at the top of the porn industry.  Superman XXX was given the green light after the enormous success of Batman XXX: A Porn Parody, which is in position to become the top selling adult DVD of the year.

Vivid's parody productions stand out because their is a bit more emphasis on production quality than you might see in your average adult DVD. In Batman XXX  for example, Vivid hired the original TV show's costume designers, which observers argue helped it stand out against cheaper parody productions. The trailer for the "Batman" adult spoof has recorded nearly one million views on YouTube.


“The enormous success of Batman XXX: A Porn Parody made this project very exciting,” said Braun.  “As usual, I’m trying to recreate the look and feel of the source material and have some fun with it without offending the fans, but while the Batman TV show was shot in studio with a relatively low budget, Richard Donner’s movie was a huge production with plenty of exteriors and groundbreaking special effects, so it will be a lot more challenging, and definitely more interesting.”
