Black Actress Named X-Play ‘Actress of the Year’
Â
(Hollywood, CA) Adult movie actress September Reign will receive the X-Play ‘Actress of the Year award’ for her dramatic performance in Adam & Eve Pictures’ Love, Sex & Music. This is the premiere edition of the award and it is an accolade that director Will Ryder and producer Scott David have been planning for the past three years.
Â
“Ever since Covid hit, we were thinking of creating an early acknowledgment intended to honor actors both male and female, that have excelled in our movies,†Ryder stated. “Some companies give out ‘girl of the month’ awards, we decided on ‘actress of the year’ for our company.â€Â      Â
Â
X-Play produces big feature movies for companies including Adam & Eve Pictures and their production of Love, Sex & Music, written and directed by Ryder, and starring Reign, tells the story of an aspiring Black singer/songwriter who moves to Nashville to launch her career in country music but is instead met with racism and corporate greed.
Â
“Show me a better performance this year,†poked Ryder. “September Reign is now among the adult industry’s finest actors and we are proud to honor her with this award.â€
Â
With eight years in the adult movie business, the beautiful, diminutive actress with the attractive breasts, finally received the role she had been waiting for and is now being honored by the company.
Â
“I’ve had some nice roles in the past but ‘Dixie’, the character I play, had some real depth to her, she was a real person with an impossible battle on her hands,†Reign remarked over lunch at a Hollywood eatery.
Â
“She’s multi-dimensional and she’s Black, all alone knocking on doors on Music Row in Nashville, Tennessee. She’s such a deep character and it’s as though this movie was made for me. I’m so proud to have teamed up with Will and thankful he had faith in me that I could pull off the role.â€
Â
“To be honest, I wasn’t sure what I was going to get with September,†Ryder remarked when discussing the drama and the award with co-producer Scott David.
Â
“She had a long resume’ of work, but placing an entire feature movie in her hands took a leap of faith on our part and also from Adam & Eve,†Ryder explained. “You have to understand, that if September is not believable in the role of Dixie, the movie dies instantly. It’s that simple.â€
Â
Instead of dying, Love, Sex & Music is soaring with Reign’s stellar performance and an ensemble cast that breathed Nashville and is now considered by critics among the year’s best feature movie presentations. Â
Â
Art Koch in his review on the All Adult Network writes,  “With September Reign in an award nom performance, this is a well written, superbly acted story that is extremely real and believable and is among the best movies Ryder has ever done.â€
Â
 “September is very deserving of our premiere award,†co-producer Scott David determined.  Â
Â
“I remember seeing September in Ethnicity from Wicked Pictures some years ago and I’ve always wanted to work with her but sometimes, you need the right script at that perfect moment and this was a collision of fate,†Ryder remarked.Â
 Â
“I started as a stripper on that Déjà vu nightclub stage a decade ago, in the limelight so to speak. So going into adult movies was a natural progression for me,†offered the Sacramento California native. “I’ve been working as a stripper, a webcam model and as an adult movie performer but I really feel like an actress now,†she added.
Â
Reign summed up her feelings this way, “I don’t take anything for granted especially roles, nominations or even awards and being Black sometimes we aren’t noticed as much, but I’m very happy today with this movie and this honor. We put the work in that’s for sure.â€
