Sasha Grey Negotiating New Mainstream Role

LOS ANGELES – Adult star Sasha Grey continues her push into mainstream negotiating to join the cast of a low-budget drama starring Thomas Jane, Rob Lowe and Jeremy Piven.

According to Reuters, the college buddies film – “I Melt With You” – would feature Grey as a muse named Raven who helps one of the men realize that nirvana can only be found after death.

Sources told XBIZ that Grey will not be cast as a porn star or prostitute in the film.

Also slated for the movie are actors Zander Eckhouse ("Huge") as Grey's idealistic writer boyfriend, Abhi Sinha as a medical student and Areielle Kebbel as a young hostess.

The film will be helmed by noted Hollywood director Mark Pellington ("Arlington Road") and developed from a script he wrote with Glen Porter.
