News: Carla Gugino Goes For a Porn Role!
By Mali Elfman
Add this to her list of films. Cinematical reports that writer-director Sebastian Gutierrez has set Carla Gugino to star in Elektra Luxx, the story of a porn star whose life gets turned upside down when she finds out she’s pregnant.
Pic is a sequel to “Women in Trouble,” an ensemble comedy about one day in the lives of 10 Los Angeles women that has yet to find distribution.
“Elektra Luxx” picks up the travails of the characters a month later, again covering a full day. The original starred Gugino, Emmanuelle Chriqui, Adrianne Palicki, Marley Shelton, Connie Britton, Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Simon Baker.
The amazing thing about Carla is that she is loved and admired by both sexes. Men and women are both drawn to her. They either want to be her or be with her. And the woman can act! Which makes her perfect for the role of a sexy woman with a whole lot of baggage.
Tim Olyphant, Alicia Silverstone and Justin Kirk will be joining the cast and many of the actors from the first film are reprising their roles.
But before any of that happens you can find Carla in Watchmen, Race to Witch Mountain, or in Every Day alongside Liev Schreiber and Helen Hunt.
