Jessica Drake Makes Directorial Debut

LOS ANGELES — Wicked Pictures contract star Jessica Drake will sit in the director’s chair for the first time for the feature-length erotic vignette “What Girls Like.” The movie also is notable for featuring the first performances under exclusive contract from Alektra Blue and Mikayla Mendez.

Drake explained the project as being "a front-row seat as we explore the sex lives of seven very beautiful, very different women. As their sexual ideals are exposed, you may be surprised, but one thing's for certain — from the traditional romantic to a business woman who’s a whore at heart, you’ll love every one — and in the process you may just find out 'What Girls Like.'"

A seasoned performer, Drake comes to the project with some experience behind the camera — she served as Brad Armstrong’s assistant director on “Coming Home.” Drake, who also wrote the screenplay, brings previous writing credits to bear including penning the Wicked features “Dating 101,” “Love Always” and “Just Between Us.”

Drake is scheduled to perform a DP in her maiden directing effort, and other cast members include Michelle McLaren, Brooke Belle, Jada Fire, Sammie Rhodes, Brad Armstrong and Randy Spears.

Wicked announced that Drake would be directing four movies this year and six in 2009.
