Sean Paul Lockhart (born October 31, 1986), known by his stage name Brent Corrigan, is an American film actor and director, known for Milk (2008), Judas Kiss (2011), and Triple Crossed (2013).
Lockhart started his career as a gay pornographic film actor mostly using the moniker "Brent Corrigan", except in The Velvet Mafia parts 1 and 2 (2006) and Best of Roman Heart (2008), in which he used the stage name Fox Ryder. In 2010, he left pornography to focus almost exclusively on gay-themed movies and independent films, such as Judas Kiss, Sister Mary, Another Gay Sequel: Gays Gone Wild!, Welcome to New York, and others. In 2011, he starred in the horror comedy anthology film Chillerama, directed by Tim Sullivan, as Ricky in the musical segment "I Was A Teenage Werebear". In 2011, he received the Rising Star Award at the Philadelphia QFest Festival.
In 2012, he announced his involvement in the production of an independent film titled Truth, directed by Rob Moretti and co-starring Lockhart and Moretti. In 2013, he directed the mystery-thriller Triple Crossed. He returned to gay pornography in 2016 with Falcon Studios' Deep Release.[1]
Early life
Sean Paul Lockhart was born October 31, 1986, in Lewiston, Idaho. He is one of four siblings; he has an older brother and a younger brother and sister. He and his siblings were raised in the suburb of Mill Creek, near Seattle, Washington, with their stepfather. His mother and stepfather divorced when he was aged 8 to 9 years, after which the household broke down.[2][3]
His first boyfriend introduced him to a "fast, furious, out-of-control side to the gay scene", with which he was not comfortable.[2][3][4] This boyfriend introduced Lockhart, then 17, to the gay pornographic industry and arranged for Lockhart to audition for a pornographic film from Lockhart's own bedroom via webcam. The boyfriend controlled the camera while the owner of Cobra Video, Bryan Kocis, observed.
Lockhart agreed to perform in filmed sex scenes with Kocis in six "action video scenes" and one "non-action" video scene in consideration for a used Volkswagen Jetta.[5] A sexual relationship developed between Lockhart and Kocis. Lockhart was under 18 when their relationship began, and it ended before his 18th birthday.[2][3][5]
Gay pornographic career
Lockhart started his career in pornography in 2004, aged 17, using the stage names Brent Corrigan and Fox Ryder in Every Poolboy's Dream. He played roles in gay porn films, notably with Cobra Video and Pink Bird Media. He has also made films with Active Duty and Jet Set Men.Шаблон:Citation needed
In September 2005, Lockhart publicly stated he was 17 when he made his first films, thus was under the legal age of consent in 11 states, including California. His first four films were pulled voluntarily from circulation by Cobra Video through their distributor, Pacific Sun Entertainment.[3]
He launched his own production company.[3]Шаблон:WhenHe was still working for many other gay pornographic studios at the time, and his own first film using condoms was Summit (2008). In previous films, he was known for not using them.[6] The film won the GayVN Awards Best Pro/Am Film 2009.
Murder case of Bryan Kocis
Lockhart's former boyfriend, Bryan Kocis, was the owner of Cobra Video and was found dead at his home on January 24, 2007.[7] Two Virginia Beach male escorts, Harlow Cuadra and Joseph Kerekes, were arrested and charged with Kocis's murder.[8]
In 2008, Kerekes pled guilty and was sentenced to life in prison without parole. Cuadra pled not guilty and went to trial on February 24, 2009. On March 16, 2009, he was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.[9] Lockhart testified for the prosecution.[10][11]
Prosecutors said the motives for the murder were to destroy the competition and to make a "million-dollar" film starring Lockhart, who had been involved in litigation with Cobra over the rights to his stage name "Brent Corrigan"; the matter settled before Kocis's death. As part of that settlement, the proceeds of profits were to be split 50/50. Cobra and Lockhart had agreed to the use of condoms in filming.[6] On April 7, 2009, Cuadra appealed his life sentence.[12] Lockhart had earlier cooperated with authorities and helped them find the suspects. He testified in the Cuadra trial.[6] The murder was dramatized in the 2016 film King Cobra.[13]
Safer sex advocacy
In a 2008 interview with Chicago Pride, Lockhart said he had consented to doing bareback as he was falsely informed he was being "protected" by the producer by the method used of pairing models. He went on to say, then age 21, "Fortunately, I got out of that alive and HIV negative! I am still negative today." In the interview, he also warned other young gay men against unprotected sex. He stated, "there are no guarantees, even with testing" and reiterated that barebacking was risky and stated "the message it sends is not one I want to be a part of anymore". During the interview he stated, "I would like to stand up for young men who are/were put in similar, compromising positions as I was at Cobra Video. I want to take a stand for HIV awareness."[6] He has been a vocal advocate of safer sex and has remained critical of the pornographic industry for its continued release of bareback pornography, which he says sends out the wrong message to young gay men.[14][15]
During a 2013 interview with Chicago Pride, on being asked if he has kept in contact with any of the other Cobra actors, he replied "No. There were few I was close withШаблон:Sndbut mostly the civil suit, and the pressure Bryan Kocis put on the other models, not to have anything to do with me and then Bryan's death pretty much put an end of the friendships I'd garnered there. From what I've heard some have moved on nicely enough. Some aren't even alive anymore. I randomly saw one in a San Francisco gym during Pride a few years ago but thought better of stopping him to say hello. It's a chapter of my life I don't like to revel in." He stated in the interview that the trend in the pornographic industry is toward unprotected, unsafe sex. He has warned about the social impact on gay and bisexual men's decision-making, especially when in the heat of lust and passion while influenced by alcohol or drugs.[16] He appeared in a short interview for his film Big Easy in 2012.[4]
In 2008, Lockhart received Best Twink PerformerШаблон:SndBottom at the Golden Dickie Awards[17] was winner of GayVN Awards for Fuck Me Raw (2006); 2009 Best Bottom, 2009 Best Pro/Am Film for Summit (2008); 2009 Best Twink Film for Just the Sex 1 & 2 (2008); 2010 Best Bottom, 2010 Web Performer of the Year, and 2010 Best Amateur / Pro-Am Release for the Big Easy (2010).

Reviews
Reviews for Triple Crossed were mixed. The CinemaQueer commented, "Triple Crossed is a low budget, yet somewhat nifty, sexual thriller."[21] Gay Celluloid said, "Filled with some passionate scenes of man-on-man lip-service and more, backed by the vibrant music of Chad Siwik and filmed, in part, in the lush location of Topanga Canyon, California, this feature frankly ticks many of the requisite boxes on the 'festival favourites' checklist and goes on to say what makes this work of particular note, is that the film cinematically marks the directorial debut of Sean Paul Lockhart; perhaps better known to the gay world as Brent Corrigan."[22] Big Gay Picture Show said: "Triple Crossed may have its flaws, but it's an entertaining thriller with a cute gay romance at its core."[23]
