Blending elements of two of this year’s viral sensations of film and television, gay Asian destination PeterFever creates a deft satire of athletic competition and hot gay romance in ‘Supreme Rivalry’, a three-episode series premiering this week at PeterFever.com. View the steamy trailer HERE.
The familiar story of sports arch-rivals conducting a clandestine romance is transferred with a light touch to the cutthroat milieu of competitive table tennis in this male erotic three-parter. Starring veteran and debuting models, veteran PF favorite and GayVN nominee Benvi as ping-pong prodigy “Rosebudov” joins Asian models Jon Darra returning with two new faces in Ricky Lee as Asian-American competitor “Holender,” and Kai Carter bringing up the rear as a spunky new rival to claim the glory and gold. Benvi shares his observations. “This was the first project I’ve done that I had both scripted and performed in, so that was very exciting! It was also the very first time I had ever attempted an accent on camera and I think that it really added to the tongue in cheek, camp factor of it all. We had an incredible cast — Kai Carter, Ricky Lee, and Jon Darra were all amazing to work with and quite sexy!”
In the dog-eat-dog world of table tennis, rivalries are heated and complex. But when the match ends, the conflicts get left on the table to trade face-offs for clothes off. Join ping-pong stars Rosebudov (Benvi) and Holender (Ricky Lee) as they vie for the top spot of world recognition and glory, navigating grueling practices, a rigid coach (Jon Darra), and a new rival (Kai Carter) who threatens their global domination of the sport. Sometimes the only friend you have in bed is the foe you revile in life. Peek behind the dirty curtain to see what really happens when the lights go down, the fans go home, and the players get off!
Lensed in Las Vegas under the direction of Guy Criss, the script maintains a cheeky, sexy edge that doesn’t take itself too seriously. He notes, “With the popularity of cultural phenomena ‘Heated Rivalry’ and ‘Marty Supreme’ we thought it would be fun to make a combined spoof showcasing gay relationships in the competitive world of ping-pong. I honestly thought every studio was going to immediately run out and do a ‘Heated Rivalry’ takeoff so we shied away from that and came up with a twist. We don’t follow the concepts of either verbatim but it’s obviously a parody of both and we’re sure that anyone watching will find it amusing, creative, sexy and worth the watch!”
zBUCKz CEO and series producer Danny Zeeman believes the cheeky parody strikes just the right note at the right moment. “This is a must-see for viewers who want a more daring and explicit take on competitive rivalry narratives. I’m very proud of the cast and crew for delivering a very fun and sexy film that is sure to please fans of the genre.” Episode one of ‘Supreme Rivalry is lighting up screens now, with the two remaining chapters following in subsequent weeks at PeterFever.com.
