LOS ANGELES — Wicked has debuted the fourth episode of Seth Gamble’s “Goddess,” starring 2021 XBIZ Best New Performer Scarlit Scandal alongside the performer/director.
“With the mythological themes of ‘Goddess,’ acclaimed filmmaker and current XBIZ Male Performer of the Year Seth Gamble is exploring the lush cinemacore imagery that earned ‘Money’ the 2023 XBIZ Best Sex Scene — All-Sex award,” said a rep.
The cast of the multi-episode saga includes Ivy Wolfe, Kenna James, Nicole Doshi and Kenzie Taylor.
The new installment is titled “Episode 4 - Menhet: Goddess of War.” Menhet was the foreign-born wife of Pharaoh Thutmose III of ancient Egypt’s Eighteenth Dynasty. Her name variously translates to “the one who sacrifices” and “the slaughterer.” She was quickly mythologized into a deific figure that led the pharaoh’s troops into battle and cut down their enemies with fiery arrows. In her calmer aspect, she was a personification of the wind.
“The word ‘goddess’ makes us think of beings with perfection and that's what people chase after in life,” said Gamble. “But in mythology, gods are depicted like normal people prone to mistakes and selfish ambitions. The concept in myth is that gods don't resemble human beings, but it is humans that resemble gods. Although they appear to be beautiful and flawless, they aren't. They age, they are motivated by greed, they feel sad, and suffer from sorrow, even depression. And if even gods can stumble, humans can too. No one is perfect.”
Gamble enthused about his co-star.
“She was the only person I considered,” he explained. “She’s ethereally beautiful, which made her a natural for such a supernaturally-themed project, and she is an intense and passionate performer. She’s extremely motivated, and committed herself 100%. Our energy and chemistry together was incredible.”
Scandal echoed Gamble's enthusiasm.
“Being in 'Goddess' truly made me feel like a goddess," she said. "From the amazing crew members to the wardrobe and makeup, everything was just absolutely perfect, and being able to be outside in nature was my absolute favorite part about it. I definitely felt like I was a warrior goddess and it was so dope.”
The fourth episode of “Goddess” premieres today, exclusively on Wicked.
