The film marks a rare occurrence in the industry as the script was penned by Mazzei, who based it upon her work as an ex-cam girl, making it a film about sex work openly written by a former sex worker. Brewer is joined by Patch Darragh (The First Purge), Melora Walters (Venom), Devin Druid (13 Reasons Why), Imani Hakim (Burning Sands) and Michael Dempsey (Red Dead Redemption II).
Cam, which debuted at the Fantasia International Film Festival to rave reviews and won the best first feature and best screenplay awards, is produced by Gunpowder & Sky, Blumhouse Productions and Netflix and is set to be distributed by the streaming service on November 16.
