Lucas Entertainment is an independent New York-based gay pornographic studio started by porn star Michael Lucas, funded by his ex-husband Richard Winger.[1] It is one of the largest[2] such studios in the world.[3][4] The studio is known for lavish, big-budget films, and it contends that its 2006 film Michael Lucas' La Dolce Vita is the most expensive gay porn ever made.[4][5] The film won 14 GayVN awards in 2007, the current record.[6]
To expand its direction, the studio hired mr. Pam Doré, gay adult film's only female videographer, as creative director of film and production in August 2008.[3] Doré, who began her career at Falcon Video in 1996, was nominated for best director and cinematography at the GayVN Awards for the studio's 2008 Return to Fire Island.[7]
In May 2009, Lucas Entertainment announced that it was filming on location the first gay porn film with only Israeli models, billing it as an effort to promote Israeli culture.[8][9] The company subsequently launched its Men of Israel microsite introducing the actors and film concept.[10] Lucas has called the film his most important, and journalists from The Atlantic, Out Magazine and Yediot Aharonot noted it as a landmark film as the first pornographic film shot on location with an all-Israeli cast;[11] while Tablet Magazine and the Los Angeles Times remarked on it being the first to feature an all-Jewish cast.[12][13][14]
In July, the studio announced on Lucas's blog that it will open a European headquarters in Paris, the site of its current production, Paris Playboys.[15] In 2013 Lucas Entertainment went from being exclusively a condom-only studio to filming and releasing "bareback" sex content.[16]
