Carla Gugino to play porn star Elektra Luxx

Variety have the news that writer-director Sebastian Gutierrez is directing Carla Gugino in Elektra Luxx. She will play a porn star whose life is turned upside down when she discovers she’s pregnant.

This 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 has the same 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.

Timothy Olyphant, Alicia Silverstone and Justin Kirk are also down to play characters in “Elektra Luxx,” and many of the actors from the first film are reprising their roles.

Gutierrez is planning a third installment tentatively titled “Women in Ecstasy.” Filming of the first sequel is under way, and all three pics are financed independently and produced by Gutierrez’s Gato Negro Films.
