All sails are raised as Digital Playground launches its marketing campaign for “Pirates II: Stagnetti’s Revenge” with the announcement of the cover art release date and the cast list. On Wednesday, July 23, the cover art will be available for catalogs and retailers to begin promotionally using. The epic sequel, “Pirates II” includes Digital Playground’s full repertoire of contract stars: Jesse Jane®, Katsuni, Shay Jordan(TM), Stoya(TM), Riley Steele(TM), and Gabriella Fox(TM). Of course the film also features other top names in adult film like BellaDonna, Sasha Grey, Jenna Haze, Brianna Love, Abbey Brooks, Shawna Lenee, Rhylee Richards, Brea Lynn, Shyla Stylez, and Veronica Rayne.

Not only does the film spare no expense in order to feature the top names in the adult entertainment industry, but Joone, the director, is able to pull mind-blowing sexual performances from the entire cast. “‘Pirates’ set the bar high, but I viewed it as a challenge. I knew ‘Pirates II’ would be huge when BellaDonna agreed to headline with Jesse. In the sequel, the sex is hotter than any adult film ever made. All of the stars display an onscreen chemistry that translates into steamy, sensual excitement every minute of the film,” says Joone.

So many of the top stars in porn were on set that people could’ve easily mistaken it for the AVN Awards, except for the addition of the giant pirate ships. Jesse Jane says, “When you put all the hottest, nastiest, kinkiest porn chicks in a movie together, you get the most amazing, jaw-dropping sex ever! I can’t ruin what happens, but even I was like ‘Damn, did they really just do that?’ The first ‘Pirates’ made adult history. This ‘Pirates’ is going to blow the other one out of the water.”

“Wow! This is unlike anything I’ve ever done,” adds Belladonna. “I’m very impressed with everything…It was intense…I get rough.”

“BellaDonna is an amazing performer to work with,” says Sasha Grey. “She is an actual porn star, not a porn girl…Being able to work with somebody that knows how to reciprocate that sexual energy is awesome because it doesn’t feel like a scene. It feels like I’m actually having sex with that person.”

Stoya, who has only been with Digital Playground for a year, realizes how fortunate she is to have signed in time for a featured role in “Pirates II”. The young star exclaims, “I loved performing in the film and experiencing the skillful directing of Joone first hand. This was the chance of a lifetime and it makes you give it your all. This was the most erotic scene I’ve ever filmed and I feel grateful and proud to be a Digital Playground girl. I know everyone in the industry was fighting tooth and nail to be in the film. Actually, porn chicks fighting sounds kind of hot.”

Evan Stone, Tommy Gunn, and Steven St. Croix reprise their ground-breaking roles from the original “Pirates”. They are joined by fellow studs Manuel Ferrara, James Deen, Marco Banderas, Mick Blue, Ben English, and Charles Dera.

All hands are on deck for “Pirates II: Stagnetti’s Revenge”, which will release in September of 2008. The film is directed by award-winner Joone, and produced by Joone and his business partner Samantha Lewis.
