Next Door Films Reveals Sex Robot Rom-Com “Almost Real”

February 3, 2026 One Comment

Next Door Films Reveals Sex Robot Rom-Com “Almost Real“, written and directed by Jeremy Babcock. Next Door Films, part of ASGmax, has announced their first full-length feature since 2024’s award-winning cowboy film “Breaking Frontiers.” It combines sci-fi and rom-com elements to tell the story of a guy and his synthetic sex-robot.

In the film, Nico Coopa is in a dead-end relationship with Trevor Harris. Unexpectedly, he’s gifted a prototype sex robot (Ryder Owens) by his ‘mad scientist’ friend, Derek Kage. As a result, chaos ensues! Roommate Vincent Grey joins the action with ‘human’ love interest, Grant Ducati. It’s a tale of love, connection, and sexual experimentation!

“This project is my tribute to 80’s era movies with an insane premise but a lot of heart,” explained Babcock. “I wanted to take a lighthearted look at a not-too-distant future where companionship becomes a choice between sex or real human connection.”

“[It] brings together some of the best talent we have on ASGmax,” continues Babcock. “Not only did all of these guys bring their sexual A-game, but they absolutely nailed both the comedy and the heart of these scenes. This was easily the most I’ve ever laughed on a shoot, and I think that joy comes through in the final product.”

“In the Name of Science,” part 1 from Almost Real, airs February 14th. The next 3 installments follow every few weeks.
