Wilfried Knight

In Memory: Wilfried Knight Dies At 35

Wilfried KnightThe adult industry mourns the tragic passing of gay porn superstar Wilfried Knight on March 5, 2013 at age 35. Wilfried had recently lost his husband, his partner of almost nine years.

Falcon Studios/Raging Stallion Studios issued the following statement: “We grieve deeply at the passing of Wilfried Knight. We offer our most genuine thoughts of sympathy and warm wishes to Wilfried’s family, friends and loved ones. He was an extraordinary talent and a special man who brought joy to our hearts. Wilfried, we celebrate your life and your accomplishments, and hope that you rest in peace. You will be missed greatly.”

“Wilfried’s death is a blow to our studio and to our industry,” said Falcon/Raging Stallion President Chris Ward. “There was no nicer man. We have all lost someone very special. I can only say that personally I am devastated. Wilfried was a friend and I shall miss him. All of us at Falcon and Raging Stallion Studios hope he is at peace, and our thoughts are with his family and friends. I know that his good friend and director, Tony Dimarco, is also greatly saddened by this tragic loss.”

Born in Germany in 1978, Wilfried grew up in Champagne, France. Before getting into the business, Wilfried worked as a personal trainer and manager of a fitness company in London. He became a fan favorite as an exclusive for Lucas Entertainment, having debuted in the Michael Lucas Auditions series. Wilfried went on to perform lead roles with Lucas in Lost, Manhattan Heat, and the big-budget smash Michael Lucas’ Dangerous Liaisons. Recognizing his uncommon talent and charisma, GayVN nominated Wilfried for Best Newcomer of 2005 and Out magazine named him the Hottest Porn Star of 2005. Other awards in his career include the 2010 GayVN Performer of the Year award and a 2011 Grabby for Best Versatile Performer.

Wilfried took a two-year hiatus from porn in 2006. He came back with a vengeance in September 2008, making a welcome homecoming in Brothers’ Reunion for Lucas Entertainment. When he became the first-ever joint Lucas/Raging Stallion exclusive, Wilfried reached the pinnacle of porn stardom. He contributed to the success of the biggest hits from Raging Stallion, including Cowboys 2, Giants, the Tales of the Arabian Nights series, and the Focus/Refocus series.

Those who worked with Wilfried describe him as a consummate performer and a joy to have on set, with a gracious and caring disposition. We at AEBN express our deepest condolences to all of his loved ones.

Movie Review: Assassin

AssassinHe’s the stalwart of gay porn and if Michael Lucas has proved anything with his tireless efforts in front and behind the camera, it’s that longevity is possible even for an industry renowned for a revolving-door workforce.

His Lucas Entertainment studio is back with Assassin, a return to the full-blown story-based porn that Lucas has been revered for. The man himself stars as an emotionless and driven assassin whose solemn life has been dedicated to carrying out the death wishes of others — until he’s caught out making a hit.

There’s a fair line-up of hot co-stars in the film too, with the likes of Wilfried Knight, Rafael Alencar, and Junior Stellano ensuring the ensemble is nothing to scoff at.

Unmissable scenes include the introductory offering, wherein Stellano and sexy boy toy Brad Star hook up. Brad wastes no time getting onto his knees and getting Junior’s thick cock before Junior lies across his desk, letting Brad plunge his dick to the back of his throat.

Brad is soon climbing onto the desk and spreading wide on all fours so Junior can get his tongue into his tight hole. But it’s Brad who bends Junior over the desk and fucks him deep first before Junior lies back onto the desk and has Brad climb on top to ride his rock-hard tool.

Seeing Brad bust his load onto Junior’s furry chest is awesome stuff.

It wouldn’t be fair not to address the hot finale either, which has Lucas’ assassin hooking up with muscle-stud Adam Killian. Lucas drills his ass beautifully, but it’s the passion between this duo that really steals the scene. Unmissable action.

Featured Star: Wilfried Knight

Wilfried KnightWilfried Knight won the coveted GayVN Performer of the Year award for 2010, and we say it couldn’t have happened to a more deserving guy!

Out Magazine named Wilfried Knight the Hottest Porn Star of 2005, when he was a Lucas Entertainment exclusive. You can appreciate at least part of the reason why this stud gets all these accolades just by looking at him in a still photo, but he’s even hotter in action and you don’t have to take our word for it. His movies are some of the most popular in our theater — if you haven’t seen them, why wait another second?

Standing 6’2″ and weighing a muscular 180lbs with an 8-inch cut dick, this German-born, UK-based stud is renowned as one of the most professional and charming models in the industry. Before getting into the business, Wilfried was working as a personal trainer and manager of a fitness company in London. He made his debut with Lucas in “Auditions Volume 1.” If you’ve seen it, you won’t wonder why GayVN nominated him for Best Newcomer of 2005. He also starred in “Lost” (not to be confused with the big TV series of the same name!), “Manhattan Heat,” and the big-budget smash literary adaptation “Michael Lucas’ Dangerous Liaisons.”

Wilfried took a two-year hiatus from porn in 2006. He came back with a vengeance in September 2008, making a very welcome homecoming in “Brothers’ Reunion” for Lucas. He has since appeared in further cock-pulsing features for other companies, including a versatile turn in Raging Stallion’s smash hit “Tales of the Arabian Nights” and its equally fabulous sequel.

Movie Review: Tales of the Arabian Nights

Middle Eastern men are in. Plain and simple. They have grown to prominence in recent years on the heels of their absence in previous years and the seemingly attractive taboo of gay sex attached to the region. In short: they’re hot because we barely see them. So while the industry isn’t completely inundated with the stereotypically masculine ethnic group, it’s safe to say these studs are going to be flavor of the month for some months to come.

In terms of productions, you can’t go past the expertise of Raging Stallion Studios. They brought us Arabesque – which arguably brought on the new wave of Arabian erotica – and they’ve had a swag of men of Middle Eastern descent on their books for some time. Now comes their new effort, Tales of the Arabian Nights, chock full of their well of muscled talent.

It was always going to by impossible to live up to the popularity of Arabesque, simply because when it was originally released, there hadn’t been anything equivalent in terms of genre, production value and overall success. But there’s still plenty to love about this new entry and the men are, as always, delicious.

The feature starts with a bang thanks to stunning – and relative newcummer – Alex Frietas who is worshipped, as he should be, by young veteran performer Andre Barclay. Alex literally has one of the most amazing bodies I’ve seen all year. His abdominal muscles and tattooed muscular form are enough to get you off even without any action. But let’s not get carried away, the action is pretty damn hot as Alex goes all out on Andre’s hole. This guy really doesn’t hold anything back.

I wouldn’t miss the scene between Wilfried Knight and Francesco D’Macho on the first part of the film either. That beautiful uncircumsized tool of Francesco’s is put to good use in Wilfried’s ass. And if you like hairy, you can’t go past the delightful Aybars, who’s teamed up with the equally furry Conner Habib too. Pt 2 consists mainly of solos with these hot blooded fellas, including a great chance to be alone with Arab big boy Antonio Biaggi.
