USA Today has secured the first image from Zack and Miri Make A Porno, the latest from Kevin Smith, which you can see a bigger version of by clicking the version below.
They also have an article, which you can read here, focusing on how exactly Smith hopes to appeal to the mass audience, i.e. the more conservative parts of America, with a movie with 'Porno' in the title.
Obviously, Zack and Miri is not smut when you get down to it. Smith always likes movies with a squishy centre. The film tells of a couple of broke friends (Seth Rogen and Elizabeth Banks) who decide to make a porn movie to solve their money woes. But while bumping uglies for profit, they discover that they have have more romantic feelings for each other.

"What's weird about it is, it's dirty but it's also incredibly sweet," says Smith. Rogen rather steps on his point when he says, "Oh, we are going too far. The first thing people should think is: 'Are they allowed to do that?'"
This could stand to be the biggest film of Smith's career. Rogen should help give it a big push, given the big wave of popularity he's currently riding, and Banks is a woman who's long overdue a breakout hit (should have been Slither). And the set-up seems to mix the same amount of saltiness and sweetness that worked so well for Superbad. We're already convinced.
