Tanya Tate Now Casting Mainstream Dark Comedy 'Cassex'

HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — Mainstream independent studio Full Moon Features has hired Tanya Tate as casting director for Surrender Cinema's latest project, “Cassex.”

Following the release of “Femalien: Cosmic Crush” — a mainstream project featuring adult performers Jillian Janson and Kira Noir — writer/director Lindsey Schmitz is once again teaming up with Full Moon for “Cassex,” billed as a dark comedy with a sexy twist.

Tate’s previous collaborations with Full Moon include movies (“Evil Bong 420,” “Evil Bong 777”), articles for Delirium magazine and appearances at San Diego Comic-Con and other events.

"I'm excited to be working with the Full Moon family again," said Tate. "I am very thankful for all the opportunities that Charles Band has provided me, including this new one. I look forward to casting this fun and sexy movie."

"Tanya has been a friend and ally to Full Moon for many years, so the decision to offer her an official role as casting director for our Surrender Cinema line was only natural," said Full Moon’s Charles Band. "Her knowledge of the adult entertainment industry is only matched by her professionalism and work ethic. We look forward to building our relationship with Tanya over many projects to come."

The plot of “Cassex” is described as follows: “When a married couple digs up a dirty home movie, it not only spices up their love life but transports them to an erotic dimension haunted by an eighties sex icon. Is it real, or is it Cassex?”

Tate is now accepting submissions at tanya@fullmoonfeatures.com for the following roles (some of the parts require nudity and simulated sex):

  • Cassandra Essex (Female, late 20s – early 40s): An '80s sex goddess with a chiseled frame and an even stronger personality. Possibly Eastern European — think Brigitte Nielsen — or other type of exotic/foreign with less than a complete grasp on the English language. No tattoos
  • Jane Fortune (Female, late 20s – late 30s): An old-school Bohemian hippie who practices divination and possesses psychic abilities. A simple beauty with a cool and calm demeanor that hides a brooding intensity. No tattoos
  • Maya Llewellyn (Female, 30s): Funny and charismatic, she's a relatable girl-next-door, but with a modern, punk rock twist. The type of gal you can take home to mom, but watch out for that temper
  • Doreen Dukes (Female, 30s): A smokey and sultry vamp with a biting sense of humor. A yoga instructor capable of delivering deadpan sass. She's the girl that taught you how to smoke cigarettes in high school
  • Starhawk (Female, early/mid-20s): A bubbly bombshell, she's always upbeat and down to party. While being a source of comic relief, behind her airhead facade, she hides a simple inner wisdom

“Cassex” will begin filming in Las Vegas in April.
