King Cobra’s first full-length trailer is here – and it doesn’t hold back
By Will Stroude
James Franco’s eagerly-anticipated gay porn drama King Cobra is just weeks away from it’s release, and in the lead up to the big night, a new trailer has been released.
Inspired by true events, the film follows the rise of porn star Brent Corrigan as he’s mentored by adult movie producer Byran Kocis, before a pair of rival producers resort to drastic measures to cash in on his growing success – with deadly consequences.
Starring Franco, Pretty Little Liars’ Keegan Allen and former Disney star Garrett Clayton Corrigan, the film has already received high praise from the Tribeca Film Festival.
But while fans are excited to discover the story behind one of the most famous gay porn stars of all time, the man himself, Brent Corrigan, has said he wants nothing to do with the film – find out why here.
King Cobra hits US cinemas on October 21. The film is yet to receive an official UK release date, but will receive its European premiere at the 60th BFI London Film Festival in October. For more information visit bfi.org.uk/lff.
