When it comes to making shows inspired or based on real-life personalities, no one can beat Netflix. From documentaries to movies and web shows, the streaming platform has brought to life the stories of people who have inspired or shocked everyone with their actions and behaviour. The latest addition to their library is Supers*x, an Italian adult drama series inspired by the life of adult star Rocco Siffredi.
The Netflix series was written by Francesca Manieri. Francesca directed the show with Francesca Mazzoleni and Matteo Rovere. The official Netflix synopsis reads, “Inspired by true events, this is the story of how Rocco Siffredi escaped a humble life and emerged as the world’s greatest adult movie star.”

Ever since Supers*x was released, netizens haven’t stopped talking about it. The explicit content in it has baffled everyone. However, in an interview last year, Rocco Siffredi shared his thoughts on the project. In an interview with Italy’s FQ Magazine, Rocco said that when the show was proposed to him, he felt lucky. However, he clarifies that it’s a beautiful story inspired “by my life, but it is not my life”.
Further, when the adult star was asked about Supers*x’s final draft, he stated, “Everything you will see in Supersex starts from me, but then the screenwriter put a lot of her own into it. It’s normal, but out of coherence and respect for my fans, who are many and who have followed me for over 30 years, I must say that a fundamental part of me is missing, and I specify this for the sake of truth. Manieri did her job well, but it should have been clearer, in the synopsis of the series and in the statements, that we did not want to give space to Siffredi, the great Italian stallion, but that we were more interested in focusing on the human side.”
