King Cobra (2016)



Released October 21st in the US.
Filming location(s) unknown.
Based on truths.
The story: In 2004,  Sean Paul Lockhart was an ambitious, attractive young gay man.
After meeting with Stephen, the gay owner of Cobra Video, Sean became Brent Corrigan.
Stephen quickly made Brent famous in the gay pornography world, while Brent was making Stephen a pretty good chunk of change.
After some time, the two became lovers. But by 2005, Brent wanted away from Stephen and out of his contract with Cobra, believing he could make more money independently.
A battle between the two ensued, which got pretty ugly on both sides due to Stephen refusing to release Brent from his contract which would not allow him to continue using his stage name.
Almost out of the game with no place to turn for work, Brent was approached by Joseph Kerekes and Harlow Cuarda, owners of a rival online gay pornography production company who were in deep debt.
When Brent explained he didn't think he could use his stage name or get out of contract with Cobra, allowing him to work for them, Joesph and Harlow decided they would take matters into their own hands.
