LOS ANGELES — Wicked Pictures has signed Stormy Daniels to an exclusive contract as a Wicked Girl, brand ambassador and exclusive director.
“I am absolutely thrilled to welcome Stormy back home,” Wicked's Head of Production Axel Braun enthused. "She is a huge part of the history of Wicked; she is smart, sexy, exceptionally talented and she truly cares about the brand. I’ve always loved, respected and appreciated her, and not having her here for the past four years just felt wrong. Wicked has always been her family and I’m happy I was able to get her back where she belongs."
Daniels wrote, directed and starred in a starry array of titles throughout her original 16-year tenure with the company, including "Operation Desert Stormy," "Wanted," "Pretty Dangerous" and "Unbridled."
Dubbed the Penthouse Pet of the Century, and the "World's Most Famous Porn Star" by GQ magazine, Daniels has received numerous industry accolades, including the XBIZ "Crossover Star of the Year" in 2008 and 2019 and "Director of the Year" in 2016.
She also served as host of the XBIZ Awards in 2019 and '20.
Her mainstream exposure includes a top-rated interview with Anderson Cooper on "60 Minutes," name-checks in tracks by Megan Thee Stallion and Kanye West, a cameo as herself on "Saturday Night Live," a New York Times-bestselling memoir and receiving the key to the City of West Hollywood, California.
"In 2002, I moved to Los Angeles and signed a contract with Wicked," recalled Daniels. "I had no family, no money and no clue what I was doing. I just knew that I wanted to be there. That I had to be there. I quickly became more than just a performer for the company. It was at Wicked that I found my voice and discovered my love for writing and directing. For 16 years, Wicked was my home, and my film crew was my family. I lived and breathed making movies; directing was, and always will be, my passion."
"A few years ago, I was called away from the industry that I love, in order to handle some other much dirtier things, but those battles are now finally over," she continued. "So when Axel approached me last month and asked me if I'd like to come home, there was absolutely no hesitation to my resounding, 'Yes!'"
Daniels will continue to pursue and cultivate mainstream passion projects, including her 13-episode reality-paranormal series "Spooky Babes."
"I am so excited to get back to being creative and making movie magic at the place I was always meant to be," Daniels added. "Now! Everyone, look busy! The bitch is back!"
