Though there's never been a case of a porn star nabbing the lead in a major Hollywood production, Indian cinema may be changing the course of history.
Vivid contract performer and former Penthouse Pet of the Year (2003), Sunny Leone will be starring in the Bollywood film, Pirate's Blood (Siba Art Production and Distribution). This is the first time in history that an adult performer has been known to star in a mainstream Indian film.
Peter Warren at AVN writes of the film: An English-language thriller, Pirate's Blood begins shooting in mid-February in Oman, and will also star veteran Bollywood actor, Salim Bahwan. Cinematography will be overseen by noted South Indian lensman, Ramachhandran Babuk. The Arabic press has dubbed Ms. Leone as 'Indian-America's Marilyn Monroe.' And since the film will be done in English, meaning no poorly translated subtitles for English speakers, most likely Pirate's Blood will be made available to American audiences.
