New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski is one of the most popular figures in professional sports. Never was that more apparent than in December 2014, when A Gronking to Remember, the first volume of a planned series of Rob Gronkowski-based erotica, was published.

The book is about a woman falling for Gronkowski's ability on the field -- and his signature touchdown dances, in which Gronkowski is known to powerfully spike the football.

Surprisingly enough, Gronkowski embraced the novel -- so much that he teamed up with model Charlotte McKinney and Funny or Die to create a trailer for a fake film based on the book.

Released on Tuesday, the clip features Gronkowski spiking a bouquet of flowers, a box of chocolate and a bottle of champagne onto McKinney's butt.

As Gronkowski says near its conclusion: "Now that's good cinema."

The trailer is just Gronkowski's latest move to endorse the fanfic, written by Lacey Noonan. At Super Bowl Media Day in January, he read the first line of the book aloud to a horde of media members.

He followed that up by reading a passage from the story on Jimmy Kimmel Live.
