Disruptive Films has completed production on "For You, I Will," a new feature-length erotic thriller starring Dante Colle and Carter Woods. The film, co-directed by Michael Vegas, Siouxsie Q, and Jessica Jasmin, explores themes of obsession and desire.
Production Details and Cast
Disruptive Films announced the completion of "For You, I Will" on Thursday, June 22, 2023. The movie is an erotic thriller that delves into the complexities of obsession and the dark depths of human desires. It was shot in four parts and will be available to stream as a four-part series on DisruptiveFilms.com in August, with traditional VOD/DVD release to follow. Part 1 of "For You, I Will" is now online and available on ASGMAX.COM.
The film stars Carter Woods as Wyatt Foster and Dante Colle as Cory Potts. Woods' character, Wyatt Foster, is described as a complex man with complicated feelings and a skewed moral compass. His seemingly ordinary life takes an unexpected turn as his parasocial relationship with his neighbor, Cory Potts, consumes his every thought. As Wyatt's obsession deepens, his boundaries between reality and fantasy blur. Woods stated that playing Wyatt Foster was his favorite role to date, citing the character's layers and the intense and entertaining way they were brought to light. He also described the project as his favorite feature to work on, from cast to crew.
The ensemble cast also includes Tristan West, Roman Todd, Blain O'Connor, Jay Tee, and Theo Brady. Maddy May and Ana Foxxx make special guest appearances. The first scene features a sex scene where Dante Colle engages with Tristan West.
Directorial Collaboration and Creative Approach
"For You, I Will" was co-directed by Michael Vegas, Siouxsie Q, and Jessica Jasmin. Jasmin commented on the chemistry among the three directors, stating, "The three of us have great chemistry. We’re a three-headed dragon and we really raised the bar this year." Vegas echoed this sentiment, expressing pride in the cast and crew's hard work and noting that Carter Woods "did a 'killer' job."
Siouxsie Q described the project as a departure in style for her production team. She stated that "For You, I Will" is "more of an erotic thriller than our first collaboration," and expressed excitement to see how fans respond to a project with "a little more edge to it."
The film represents the third feature collaboration for the directing team. Jasmin first met Vegas and Q during the making of "Briar Basin Ranch," another thriller project for Disruptive Films. She noted her impression of their creativity and ability to elevate ideas, stating that their partnership is seamless and that they operate as a "three-headed dragon." She also mentioned that preplanning sequences and scenes allows them to move into roles on set without discussion or assignment.
The directors drew inspiration from various sources, including the Netflix series "You" and vintage pulp genres. Siouxsie Q found it helpful to reference mainstream Hollywood thrillers made during the Hays Code era, from approximately 1934 to 1968. She noted that producers during that time had to work within strict parameters of what they could show on screen, similar to the limitations faced by adult entertainment due to credit card processor compliance. Jasmin stated that the team had to "flex our creativity in some challenging but ultimately super-rewarding ways" to create plot points for a gripping thriller, including implying violence without explicitly showing it, similar to filmmaking during the Hays censorship era.
Jasmin also highlighted the goal of creating a fully lived-in universe with fleshed-out characters. She remarked that if the explicit sex were removed, the feature could still hold its own on top streaming services based on its storyline and acting. The team focused on character continuity and development, ensuring visually interesting sets and locations. The film also features a double anal scene, a first for Disruptive Films.
Disruptive Films' Vision
Disruptive Films aims to offer genre-blurring and innovative content. Jasmin stated that the company is not afraid to operate near the edge of compliance to bring creators' visions to life. She declared, "Our goal is to be as taboo as legally allowed." She also mentioned that their scenes are inspired by real experiences, podcasts, true crime stories, and popular TV shows, indicating that the team are "big movie and television buffs."
The creative process at Disruptive Films begins in the writing room, where the team brainstorms concepts, drawing inspiration from imagination or popular mainstream fare. Once a concept is finalized, it is shared with directors, and design and post-production teams are rallied around it. Jasmin described Disruptive as a collaborative brand where every individual involved influences the movie. She also mentioned that Jake Waters' directorial and screenwriting debut is coming to Disruptive next month.
