(Los Angeles, CA / December 23, 2019) – Deeper presents Maitland Ward in her latest breathtaking scene, ‘Higher Power’, a dark drama about addiction, manipulation and the cunning wiles of beautiful predators, launching December 23rd in conjunction with the Deeper.com Holiday Sale.
Directed by Deeper boss Kayden Kross, the intense IR scene spotlights the striking redhead and co-star Pressure against the backdrop of a Sex Addicts Anonymous meeting where Ward targets her vulnerable prey.
 “I’ve waited my entire career to deliver words like this,” says Maitland. “The script Kayden crafted is so dark and twisted and delicious. Under her guidance, I got to places emotionally and sexually I never knew possible. Everything in this scene is authentic and raw and primal, and yet at the same time so erotically, dangerously beautiful. Kayden is that rare director who can effectively and artistically capture both.”
Ward, a popular mainstream film & TV actress best-known for Boy Meets World, The Bold and the Beautiful and White Chicks, made her Deeper debut earlier this year with the feature film Drive and three-way scene ‘Denial’.
“This is hands down the best performance I’ve ever captured, both in terms of acting and sex,” says Kayden Kross. “Maitland is in a class of her own. I am so grateful for the opportunity to work with her. What she is capable of on-camera has broadened what I am capable of from behind camera.”
