Sasha Grey is joining the cast of “I Melt With You,” a mainstream drama also starring Rob Lowe and Jeremy Piven. There’s still no sight of new Sasha Grey porn. No, she’s not having a threesome with Lowe and Piven.
Sasha will be playing Raven, “a free spirit who helps one of the men realize that nirvana can only be achieved by death.” Sounds right up her alley, huh? Raven might be a little freaky and new age-y, but we’re happy that Sasha isn’t playing a sex worker in any form. It’s rare to see pornstars cross over into the mainstream and land non-eroticized roles in anything besides horror films.
Still, we can’t help but miss the pornier side of Miss Grey, and we wonder if she’ll ever again charm us through those hardcore channels of yore. She hasn’t shot anything in almost a year, and though she sometimes alludes to “Watch This,” it has yet to materialize. As her porn-star slowly dims, Sasha seems to be establishing greater street cred in Hollywood. And if acting with Piven and Lowe doesn’t make her more family friendly, consider this: Raven’s boyfriend is played by ABC Family star Zander Eckhouse.
It’s not like we feel abandoned! We’ll never get tired of watching Sasha Grey porn, and we’d love some new fap material, but if she’s not interested in making adult cinema then that’s that. Members of the porn community might be amused watching one of our beloved straddling these disparate entertainment worlds, but at this rate, it’s hard to say how much longer Sasha will be straddling anything.
