LOS ANGELES — Missa X has released the first trailer for the religious-themed Ricky Greenwood feature “Under the Veil.”
“Under the Veil” follows the journey of Sister Kenna (Kenna James) and Father Thomas (Tommy Pistol) “as they fight wicked temptation and they struggle with lust,” said a rep.
“Mother Superior (Helena Locke) shocks us with her old-testament style of punishment, while writer Sister Charlotte (Charlotte Stokely) dares to corrupt obedient female minds as a feminist woman of God.”
The star-studded cast also features Ashley Lane, Dante Colle, Aiden Ashley, Steve Holmes, Anny Aurora, Lilly Bell and Jane Wilde.
The title, touted as MissaX.com’s first eight-scene feature, was written by Shawn Alff and Maddy Barton. The tech team included set design by Kylie Ireland with the help of David Lord, FX by Alexxx Moon (“Blue Moon Rising”) and cinematography by Matt Holder.
“On MissaX.com we love to push the boundaries of taboo and I was so thrilled when Ricky Greenwood pitched ‘Under The Veil” to us,” said MissaX. “Ricky Greenwood, put all of his love into this project. He not only came up with the concept and directed the film, but he also edited it. I believe his talent as a director is accredited to his passion for the product to be the best.”
“We knew we needed a phenomenal actress to star as the lead, Kenna James, was a no-brainer,” MissaX continued. “Ricky and I have both directed her for years and we know her to be talented as hell, reliable, and consistently amazing, whether her role is large or small. I hope she will get the recognition she deserves,”
The Cast Speaks
James thanked Greenwood and MissaX for the role. “Working with Ricky is always an immense pleasure and I love the diversity in characters that I get to adopt,” she said. “Everything about this film is absolutely amazing and I’m so proud to be a part of it.”
Stokely, who played a blind character, called the feature “an amazing opportunity to challenge myself and grow as an actress. I’ve never acted as a blinded person before as an actress or a sexual performer. It’s amazing how it increased my sexual appetite to have my mind focused solely on feel, taste, touch, and smell.”
Helena Locke praised the creative team’s “eye for artistry through symbolism, lighting, and staging [which] truly brought the film to another level.”
Tommy Pistol called his scene with James “so personal and believable, as two lovers struggled to be with each other under the Church’s rule.”
