Think The Election's Over? Not For Sweetheart's 'The Candidate'

MONTREAL, Quebec—The U.S. may not have a woman president, but awarded all-girl studio Sweetheart Video and parent company Mile High Media have decided to get political, and the result is the production of The Candidate, starring contract star Brandi Love in an erotically charged political thriller pulled from current events. Brandi Love plays the candidate vying for the presidency while embroiled in scandal and drama. The Candidate is in post-production, with a release date slated for Jan. 25, 2017. The politically charged feature from writer/director Dana Vespoli touts a stellar cast of adult stars alongside Brandi Love, including Julia Ann, Penny Pax, Kira Noir, Karlie Montana, Bree Daniels, Casey Calvert, Lyra Law and Uma Jolie. "Working with Dana Vespoli is always a treat," said Brandi, referring to her on-set experience with The Candidate. "She has such a clear vision for her films and really brings out the best in all of her performers. When I read the script for The Candidate I was instantly intrigued and thankful I was chosen to be a part of it. I am not one to shy away from controversy so shooting a politically charged movie was thrilling. Dana doesn't hold back in this film, and the end result shows her skills as a writer and producer. As actors, Julia Ann and I had our boundaries pushed depicting a very unique relationship. She and I have fabulous chemistry and I respect her, it is always a sheer pleasure being paired up with her. This was several days of intense shooting with some of the finest talent in the business. Each and every role was depicted brilliantly. I am proud to be a part of such a great movie." “I really enjoy reading and watching thrillers, and with the election, a political thriller just seemed like a fun idea, explained director Dana Vespoli. “Features like this are arduous to do—writing, casting, and long days, but ultimately gratifying. Plus, Brandi Love is a dream to shoot. She is so professional, and has such a great attitude and enthusiasm for her roles. She really shines as Senator Hanlon, and with how sophisticated and smart Brandi is, she was an obvious choice for that role.” For insider release information and the latest news on The Candidate, follow Sweetheart Video on twitter @sweetheartvids and through Mile High Media’s exclusive blog.
