Former Disney star Bella Thorne has made an interesting career move. Sheโ€™s directing a porn movie.

The star of childrenโ€™s show Shake It Up and movies like The Duff has revealed she is making her directional debut on Pornhub with a scandalous new project Her & Him.

The film, which will debut at a German film festival next month, has been described as a โ€œmodern, sexually explicit Romeo and Juliet-like depiction of modern star-crossed loversโ€.

The film will debut at The Oldenburg Film Festival in Germany (Sept. 11 โ€“ Sept. 15) before it becomes available on Pornhub.

In the promotional video (see the Safe For Work video below) Thorne explains her inspiration for the film. She said she initially intended to make a Christmas horror movie but changed her mind. She explains she was inspired to do the film by considering the idea about a relationship between a male and a female struggling for dominance.

โ€œMy vision originally actually was to make a Christmas horror movie. And instead, I made a very beautiful, ethereal, neon type of vision,โ€ she said in the video.

โ€œSometimes you got into it thinking that you want something specific. Then you totally change your mind, and you donโ€™t go with that idea at all.โ€

โ€œWhat inspired me to do the movie was basically thinking about this relationship between a male and a female and this fight over dominance and how much that relates to us in our general world besides in a sexual scenario.โ€

The Safe For Work trailer for the movie hit the internet on Tuesday. The film stars Small Hands as โ€œan edgy twenty-something guy.โ€ He discovers his girlfriend (Abella Danger) has been searching online for โ€œhow to kill your boyfriend and get away with it.โ€

Small Hands becomes obsessed with the thought that Dangerโ€™s character is secretly planning to murder him. His fears lead to a confrontation between the two that spins out of control in a sexually-charged atmosphere.
