Garrett Clayton
Sean Paul Lockhart has made a bit of a name for himself as an actor and producer in gay-themed movies, but as many will know, before he went legit he was porn star Brent Corrigan, who for a time was the hottest gay adult actor around, known for his boy next door looks and, erm, impressive endowment.
However what fewer know is that during his career he unwittingly became central to a murder, when porn actors Harlow Raymond Cuadra and Joseph Manuel Kerekes savagely killed porn producer and head of Cobra Video, Bryan Kocis. They thought by doing so they’d be able to make it big behind-the-scenes of the porn world, and lure Brent Corrigan to work for them in order to make a massively successful movie. Lockhart had got his start with Cobra Video, although it was later revealed he was underage in his first videos. He was later involved in a legal dispute with Kocis over the name Brent Corrigan (however there was never any suggestion he was involved in the murder).
Now a film about the case is in the works, called King Cobra, with QueerClick reporting that James Franco (who else) is set to produce, with Chrisian Slater playing Kocis. Molly Ringwald has also been cast, apparently playing Kocis’ sister Melody.
It’s not clear what actors will step into the roles of Cuadra and Kerekes, but the movie has founds its Brent Corrigan in the very hot form of former Disney Channel star Garrett Clayton (Teen Beach Movie, The Fosters).
It appears Franco will also appear in the movie, but it’s not clear what role he will play. It will also reunite him with his I Am Michael director, Justin Kelly.
There are a few gay-themed movies that have been submitted by various countries hoping to win the Best Foreign Film Oscar, and one of those in from Thailand, which has put forward How to Win at Checkers (Every Time) as it’s submission.
It wasn’t expected until tomorrow, but the official main poster for Star Wars: The Force Awakens has arrived, which is bound to have fans poring over it, trying to unpick what it says about the characters old and new, from Han Solo and Princess Leia to John Boyega’s Finn and Daisy Ridley’s Rey.
In The Danish Girl, Eddie Redmayne stars as Lili Elbe, who became one of the first women to undergo sex-reassignment surgery way back in the early 1930s.
Nicholas Hoult leaves zombies, mutants and Mad Max behind for a while to head into the music business with the upcoming Kill Your Friends, which has release a new trailer and a sexy new poster.
Turning videogames into movies doesn’t exactly have a great history, but when it’s an animated movie, there’s a chance it’ll be okay – although that fact it’s an independent production should give us a little pause.
The Paranormal Activity franchise is returning with what’s promised as the final instalment (for now at least), which suggestions it’ll clear up some of the mysteries from the earlier movies.
While Marvel still seems reticent to give Mark Ruffalo’s Hulk a movie of his own, they are at least making a little more use of him, as after the two Avengers movies, he’s now due to show up in Thor: Ragnarok, according to 
While 2013’s A Good Day To Die Hard was a bit of a flop, Fox obviously thinks there’s still mileage in the franchise, as they’ve enlisted Die Hard 4 director Len Wiseman for a prequel, taking us into the life of a young John McLane.
