Netflix Reveals First Images, Release Date for Italian Porn Biopic Series ‘Supersex’

Netflix has dropped its first key art and several new images for Supersex, the hotly-anticipated biographical series on Italian porn star Rocco Siffredi, aka “Buttman.”

Alessandro Borghi, star of Netflix’s mafia drama series Suburra and 2022 Cannes jury prize winner The Eight Mountains, plays Rocco in the fictionalized take on the porn actor’s life. The 7-episode series, created and written by Francesca Manieri, and by Lorenzo Mieli for Fremantle-owned The Apartment and by Matteo Rovere for Banijay’s Groenlandia, will bow on Netflix worldwide on March 6, 2024. Matteo Rovere, Francesco Carrozzini and Francesca Mazzoleni are directing.

Netflix has said the series is “freely inspired” by Siffredi’s life and career, as well as from direct testimony from Siffredi. Supersex plans to tell the soup-to-nuts story of Rocco from his childhood and family origins through his “relationship with love” that led him to pursue a career in porn.

Jasmine Trinca plays Lucia, a fictional female character who represents a synthesis of many of the women Rocco had relationships with in real life. Adriano Giannini plays Tommaso, Rocco’s half-brother, Saul Nanni plays Rocco as a young man. Other cast members include Enrico Borello (Gabriele), Vincenzo Nemolato (Riccardo Schicchi), Gaia Messerklinger (Moana), Jade Pedri (Sylvie) and Linda Caridi (Tina).
