Fifty Shades of Black

[projekktor id=’22866′]

Fifty Shades of Black is a parody of the popular Fifty Shades of Grey franchise, directed by Michael Tiddes (A Haunted House and its sequel). The film stars Marlon Wayans and Kali Hawk with appearances by Jane Seymour, Fred Willard, and Mike Epps.

Wayans has become known for his parodies, including the Haunted House films he worked on with Tiddes, and in an interview with The Source he says he doesn’t really plan out which films to mock. “It chooses me, honestly. When I’m watching something, some movies just inspire me to write jokes about a script because they’re either corny to me or I think of ways to make something that’s serious funny. For Fifty Shades of Grey, I loved it and hated it at the same time and instantly thought of jokes during it. I had so many that I got the idea to make it into a comedy. The characters in it were funny to me, and I liked the sex aspect, so why not combine my favorite things: sex and comedy.”

He also enjoys that he doesn’t have to make his films very deep and meaningful as long as they’re entertaining. “The jokes are the only thing I want people to take away; we worked hard on those punchlines. But just know this: fellas I gave you a lot of ass to look at and ladies, I brought the jokes and both parties get a lot of funny sex.”

Fifty Shades of Black is rated 18A.
