Batman v Superman XXX has already become a cause celebre in the mainstream press, with profiles appearing in such respected media outlets as MTV UK, Perez Hilton, Digital Spy, The Daily Star and many more. Following a highly successful advance screening of the movie at the University of California, Santa Barbara, a SFW trailer was released on YouTube, where it quickly garnered nearly 450,000 views in just two weeks.

For his part, Braun couldn’t be happier with the excitement the film. “It’s really awesome to get all this attention and praise for something that I’m so proud of,” said the legendary director. “I was extremely passionate about this movie, and my cast and crew totally shared my enthusiasm. Ryan Driller, who has now played Superman for me five times, has developed a deep understanding of the character, and delivered a nuanced, powerful, award-worthy performance. Aiden Ashley repeatedly cried on command during a particularly emotional scene, and Kleio Valentien literally brought to life Harley Quinn. The days of making fun of porn for the bad acting are gone, if you ask me, and I’m thrilled to be directing actors who really care about the craft.”
