German Penthouse Pet Nikita Black has been tapped to star in producers Michael Biehn and Jennifer Blanc-Biehn’s new erotically charged sci-fi thriller Fembot. Editor-turned-director Vance Crofoot (The Victim) helms the film from a script by Staci Layne Wilson (Fetish Factory).

The synopsis reads:

Imagine a world in the not-too-distant future in which your every whim and desire can be fulfilled by a beautiful, charming, and sexually adventurous female robot.

Wealthy entrepreneur Zayden Beckett (Biehn) can’t wait to invest… both professionally and personally. He settles on Arla, the most intelligent of the lot and specially programmed just for him. Unfortunately, the devious inventor of the Fembot has cut corners with Arla, using a different, inferior energy source.

She develops a mind of her own and a thought process which allows for jealousy. When Beckett begins to fall in love with a real woman, Arla goes on the attack.

Black earned the Penthouse Pet title in 2013, and met Blanc-Biehn during the American starlet’s shoot in Vienna for Penthouse Germany. Blanc-Biehn was so taken by Black they developed a character in Fembot specifically for her.

Fembot goes into production this month and is slated for release in 2015.
