Netflix has released the official trailer for Supersex, the anticipated Italian drama set to debut on the platform on March 6 here in the United States. In the movie, Alessandro Borghi plays Rocco Siffredi in the series, which is loosely inspired by the life of the most famous adult film star in the world. The series is highly fictionalized, leaning into the comedy, drama, and inherent absurdity of working in the porn industry. According to Siffredi himself, he thinks the show is going to be interesting, and he supports the creative vision behind it, but he did take pains to point out to his fans that it isn’t really close to being the true story of his life.

In an interview back when the show first entered development, he said that he felt obliged to clarify the facts out of respect to his fans. The Decider broke it down.

“This beautiful story is inspired by my life, but it is not my life,” Siffredi told Italy’s FQ Magazine in 2022. “Everything you will see in Supersex originates from me, but then the writer put a lot of herself into it.”
