Axel Braun, October 2010
Born Italy

Axel Braun (born September 22, 1966 in Milan, Italy) is an Italian adult film producer and director. He is the son of Lasse Braun, who was among the first to successfully campaign for the legalization of pornography in Europe. He has directed over 400 movies since 1990[1] Braun's movie Batman XXX: A Porn Parody was the best-selling and best-renting title of 2010.[2] Due to the success of Batman XXX: A Porn Parody, Vivid Entertainment created a new imprint to capitalize on the superhero and sci-fi genres called Vivid Superhero. Braun was named leading director for the initiative and has since released the film Superman XXX: A Porn Parody and Spider-Man XXX: A Porn Parody, Spider-Man vs. Superman XXX, Star Wars XXX: A Porn Parody, The Avengers XXX: A Porn Parody, Iron Man XXX: A Porn Parody, and X-Men XXX: A Porn Parody are in development under Braun's direction.[3][4][5][6]

On October 29, 2010 Braun filed a federal lawsuit against 7,098 individuals who he claimed illegally shared digital copies of his movie Batman XXX: A Porn Parody.[7] Two months later, all but one of his claims were dismissed by a federal judge.[8][9] In May 2009 Braun became the first director to receive two AVN Editor's Choice in the same month, for This Ain't Happy Days XXX and This Ain't Star Trek XXX.[10] In March 2011 he repeated himself by getting two AVN Editor's Choice for Superman XXX: A Porn Parody and Elvis XXX: A Porn Parody.[11][12] Braun was inducted into the AVN Hall of Fame in 2011.[13]
