Adult entertainment star Colby Jansen has just made his non-porn acting debut.

The adult performer stars alongside actor Patrick Wallace in the 12-minute short “Matt.” It made the rounds at several LGBTQ film festivals over the past year before being posted online last week. It can also be viewed via streaming service Dekkoo.

The short film was created by writer/director Ori Ravid, who partially funded the project via a Kickstarter campaign. It focuses on a one-night hook up between a young twink and an older daddy, both of whom are called Matt.

The short explores the sometimes-awkward dynamic between sexual partners when one has a lot of experience and the other does not.

Ravid, who graduated from NYU with a degree in Film and Television Production, says he first had the idea for the movie a few years ago.

“I found out that someone I had a huge crush on was dating someone significantly older than him,” the filmmaker says, “so I arranged a sleepover with someone in my neighborhood who was significantly older than me out of, yes, jealousy, but also curiosity.

“I wanted to know what a 45-year-old could possibly get out of someone emotionally who was 25. Turns out that I was really just insecure with myself in a lot of ways and I’ve done a full 180-degree turn on that thinking since then, but that was the inception of the idea.

“I reached out to Colby because, as someone familiar with his work, I knew he could act and would be a ‘dream daddy’ to cast. I emailed him the script and he agreed to do it pretty much immediately.”

On the subject matter, he has said, “I wanted to portray a gay hook-up that feels realistic and also free of melodrama – something that I feel like is rarely done and if I had seen in my informative years could have made me feel better about myself sexually once I got older.

“I’ve had a lot of straight people tell me how relatable it is for them after watching it too, which isn’t something I was necessarily expecting but am super happy is the case.”

As for Jansen, he told the online outlet Queerty that the project was “really refreshing” after his adult entertainment work.

“I had an absolute blast with Ori, Patrick and the rest of the crew,” Jansen says. “It was challenging to really focus on acting and get my tone, inflection, facial expressions and timing down. And I believe it really has helped me in the acting part of my ‘other’ kind of acting.”

“I’m still working as an adult actor,” he reassures his fans. “I still have my OnlyFans and I’m making content with men and women now and I still work for major studios. As long as people keep booking me, I want to keep working!”
