Ex-Disney star and self-proclaimed "wannabe mogul" Bella Throne is a staunch advocate of doing whatever she wants and sexual self-ownership. Recently, the actress came out as pansexual and released her own nudes to foil hackers who leaked her naked pictures online. Now, she's breaking into the porn industry.
Stepping out of her usual wheelhouse as an actress, Thorne wrote and directed her first short film, a porno for Pornhub. She was tapped to create the third installation in Pornhub's Visionary Directors series, which enlists "unexpected guest directors" as a way to "diversify porn production and help create more varied content with multiple types of viewers in mind."

Starring porn actors Abella Danger and Small Hands, Thorne's creation Her & Him seems to be a thriller that follows Small Hands, as he discovers that Abella is trying to kill him, a goal they both seem to find very erotic. The trailer includes weird sloshy noises, butcher knives, club lighting and lots of sweat, although Thorne describes Her & Him as a "beautiful, ethereal film."
"What inspired me to do this movie was 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 just a sexual scenario. My vision behind the story was basically creating these two dynamic characters that could switch off between dominant and submissive," said Thorne in a BTS reel (linked below). "My initial idea was to create a Christmas horror movie, but instead I made a beautiful, ethereal film. I'm lucky that Pornhub came on and produced this with me. They believed in my vision and weren't scared to jump in with me."

Pornhub VP Corey Price calls Her & Him a "modernistic, sexually explicit Romeo and Juliet-like depiction of two star-crossed lovers who have an unbridled sexual longing for each other. Their love is reckless and dangerous and transcends time and space."
"Bella's creativity and imagination is personified through the course of the film, as she takes viewers on a journey of passion and desire. Make sure you check it out on Pornhub Premium and keep an eye on our Visionaries Director's Club as we continue to create more varied content that will appeal to our fast-growing and increasingly diverse audience."
