(Hollywood, CA) In 2018, the Gender X Films series, where hot and horny trans girls were stranded on the side of the road, debuted, and it was an instant hit. Concepted and directed by multi-award-winning, prolific director Jim Powers, the series is back for its fifth installment with a whole crop of new models looking for a wild ride.
The first scene from “Transexual Hitchhikers 5” is available on the Gender X site, and it stars Kasey Kei and Derek Kage. After Kasey’s car breaks down on the side of the road, she’s stranded since her cell phone’s dead. Derek was driving by and is happy to assist. Once in the car, Kasey gives Derek a special roadside assistance, aka a sloppy BJ, and the adventures continue once they reach his house. Pretty soon, Kasey forgot all about her cute little car.

“Gas, grass, ass nobody rides for free is definitely applicable here. Each hitchhiker has an interesting story to tell in this installment, but one thing they have in common is that they’re ready to fuck and down for adventure. We had a lot of fun filming, and it shows,” says Jim Powers.
“Transexual Hitchhikers 5” is available to watch on VOD on the Gender X Films site genderxfilms.com/en/movie/Transsexual-Hitchhikers-5/158139. Individual scenes with Haven Rose, Avery Lust, and Aubrey Kate will drop over the next few weeks.

ABOUT JIM POWERS
Jim Powers is one of the most prolific directors of our time who’s always been known for being controversial and once told Forbes he wants to be the Warren Buffett of porno. Growing up in the Valley in the 1970s, Jim was influenced by comic books, horror movies, fan magazines, and skateboarding, and in the 1980s, all he wanted to do was be a punk rocker and skateboarder. After graduating from Cal State Northridge, he became a stockbroker, a DVD distributor, and a part-time pornographer.
In 1992, while gambling in Bally’s in Vegas, Jim wandered into the AVN Awards and decided he could make a better movie than most people there for $5k—he and his friend put up $2500 each to make “The Hills Have Thighs.” Kevin Beachum of Midnight Pictures encouraged him to shoot amateurs on the beach, even though he had never even picked up a camera. While shooting on the beach in Malibu, his set was shut down, and he was hit with felony charges of pandering and conspiracy. He continued to shoot at private houses and swinger parties for Beachum and other companies to cover his legal bills.
In 1993, a chance meeting with Jeff Mike of JM Productions led to history when the two joined forces, regularly pushing the limits of sex while still staying out of prison. Jim helped them roll out their bukkake line and invented American Bukkake—Downtown Larry Melrose from the Howard Stern Show was frequently on his sets. Jim had his own company, Powersville, and directed for legendary adult studios Heatwave, Mayhem, Sin City, Notorious, Immoral Productions, and Smash Pictures. Currently, he directs for Gender X, Devil’s Film, BiPhoria, Dogfart, Zero Tolerance, Adult Time, Transfixed, Fantasy Massage, and Addicted to Girls, and averages over 300 scenes per year. In 2023, ASN Lifestyle Magazine profiled him with a 10-page feature.
With 50 performer credits and thousands of scenes as a director, Jim won Director of the Year (Body of Work) and Best Director – Non-Feature from the AVN Awards and was inducted into the AVN Hall of Fame in 2005. He’s also scored countless AVN Awards nominations for Best Director, Best Director – Feature, Director of the Year: Individual Project, Best Directing Portfolio – Specialty, Best Director – Parody, Director of the Year (Body of Work), Director – Non-Feature, and Best Videography, as well as Gonzo Director of the Year from the XBIZ Awards, Best Producer Nominee from the TEAs, Best Director – Parody from XRCOs, and Top BDSM Release from AEBN’s VOD Awards.
During the Black Flag era, Jim sported a mohawk and toured in punk rock bands. He still plays bass in the punk rock band Killroy at high-end venues like Roxy, Viper Room, and Knitting Factory.
