LOS ANGELES — Hustler Video and LFP Broadcasting have begun shooting adult productions in Europe, starting with the company's first original production outside the U.S., titled “Strip.”
According to a rep, the group's new EVP of broadcasting worldwide, Stephanie Meyer, has introduced a new strategy of more content with a broader range of international talent, along with focusing on an ethical approach to production and on women's pleasure and respect. Meyer has added the new Hustler productions outside of the U.S. to the company's release slate and offerings to consumers.
French director/producer Hervé, also known as HPG, lensed “Strip,” which was shot in France, features French and international talent, and stars Mina Kali alongside Alice Guerlin, Elisa Calvit and Lucy Hear.
The feature will be available across the company's platforms, including Hustler.com, at the end of 2023.
“Strip” dives into a fantasy shared by a group of strangers who all mysteriously end up in the same place, the synopsis reveals. A sexy, mysterious female voice, played by Kali, persuades the guests to get acquainted and sexually explore one another — unaware that they are all former lovers or mistresses of the voice, and are being watched.
"I don't often shoot adult movies, except if it's for Hustler,” said Kali. “My profile is not the standard porn actress one — watch the movie, and you will see.”
Meyer noted that Hustler has wanted to begin filming in Europe for some time now and take advantage of its talent both in front of and behind the camera.
“We are excited to bring Hustler customers a robust and expansive offering of quality work and talent," she added.
The initiative is part of Hustler’s ongoing preparations for its 50th anniversary celebration in 2024.
