Wicked's 'Spideypool XXX: An Axel Braun Parody' Nabs 8 XBIZ Award Nominations

HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — Wicked Pictures' "Spideypool XXX: An Axel Braun Parody" picked up eight nominations from the 2023 XBIZ Awards, including "Feature Movie of the Year."

Braun scored four of the noms, for "Best Screenplay," "Best Art Direction," "Best Editing" (with Claudia Ross), and "Best Cinematography" (with James Avalon and Ralph Parfait).

Acting nominations went to Seth Gamble for "Best Lead Acting" and Kenzie Taylor for "Best Supporting Acting."

Finally, Gamble and Kenna James were nominated for "Best Feature Movie Sex Scene."

Braun shared his enthusiasm about the title.

"'Spideypool XXX' is my 62nd parody, and definitely my favorite one," he said. "It’s a movie that really serves as a perfect example of what a porn parody should be: funny, sexy, full of easter eggs and extremely respectful of the source material. On top of that, I was able to work on it with a group of extremely talented people who are also my friends, and it made the experience so much more enjoyable."

The 2023 XBIZ Awards will crown the best-of-the-best in adult Sunday, Jan. 15 at the historic Hollywood Palladium; in keeping with tradition, select award categories under Web & Technology, Pleasure Products and Retail will be presented as part of the annual XBIZ Honors ceremonies.
