The Second Episode of Seth Gamble's 'Deranged' Debuts

LOS ANGELES—The second episode of Deranged, the psycho-sexual thriller from three-time AVN Best Actor and Gamma exclusive contract performer Seth Gamble, who makes his directorial debut with the picture, is now available on Wicked.com. Produced by four-time AVN Director of the Year Axel Braun, the eight-part series, written by Gamble, stars Kenzie Taylor and Tommy Pistol. The new scene features Taylor as she encounters industry veteran Derrick Pierce. "Derrick Pierce's track record speaks for itself. His strong and resonant screen presence has earned him countless awards, yet he remains humble,” Gamble said. “Like me, he likes to see things moving efficiently on set. However, that doesn’t mean he wants a high-stress environment. In fact, he wants the exact opposite. He loves to see performers really stepping into a role just like he does and in his experience it is easier to do that if the atmosphere on set is calm and relaxed. There was real passion and chemistry in his work with Kenzie, and that’s exactly what I wanted." The release of Gamble's latest work comes as he prepares for the AVN Awards where he is up for Male Performer of the Year and other awards, including Best Actor – Featurette for his work in Wicked's Black Widow XXX: An Axel Braun Parody. The acclaimed project earned nine nominations for the annual event, scheduled to be streamed live at 8 p.m. PT on Saturday, Jan. 22 on AVN Stars and AVNAwards.com. "I'm incredibly grateful to be working with such gifted professionals," Gamble said. "My wonderful wife Kenzie saw the underpinnings to the character of Charlie that were implicit in the script, understood the psychology behind them, and had the command of her craft and the skill set to imbue them with a palpable sense of danger and urgency. By making the inner life of Charlie so real, she allowed me, as a feature director, to have the intricacy of the storyline and the visceral nature of the sex work in concert with each other." “I think it was obvious from the first scene that we were looking at an exciting new director with a real vision,” said Braun, who is currently shooting his new parody opus Spideypool XXX. “Episode two of Deranged is further proof that Seth is ready to take his career to a whole new level. The crescendo of intensity in this series is incredible, and Kenzie is absolutely phenomenal, which shouldn’t surprise anybody after her stellar performance in Captain Marvel XXX.” To watch upcoming episodes of Deranged and other content, visit Wicked.com.
