The list includes male actors in gay pornographic films who may be notable for their gay pornography and those who may be notable for other reasons or both. Some performers have many pseudonyms and stage names (indicated here by a.k.a.). Multiple pseudonyms are utilized for a variety of reasons including legal constraints, the appearance of having more actors working at a studio, an actor's wishing to disguise how many films he is working on or that he is doing work for another studio, etc. The men listed here are known to have appeared in a gay porn film however, this does not necessarily mean they are gay-see gay-for-pay.

Many of these men have also appeared in other forms of pornography, such as pornographic magazines.
