Sean Paul Lockhart (born October 31, 1986), known by his stage name Brent Corrigan, is an American film actor and director, known for Milk (2008), Judas Kiss (2011), and Triple Crossed (2013).

Lockhart started his career as a gay pornographic film actor mostly using the moniker "Brent Corrigan", except in The Velvet Mafia parts 1 and 2 (2006) and Best of Roman Heart (2008), in which he used the stage name Fox Ryder.

In 2011, he starred in the horror comedy anthology film Chillerama, directed by Tim Sullivan, as Ricky in the musical segment "I Was A Teenage Werebear".

[2][3][5] Lockhart started his career in gay pornography in 2004, aged 17, using the stage names Brent Corrigan and Fox Ryder in Every Poolboy's Dream.

He played roles in gay porn films, notably with Cobra Video and Pink Bird Media.

His first four films were pulled voluntarily from circulation by Cobra Video through their distributor, Pacific Sun Entertainment.

Lockhart's former boyfriend, Bryan Kocis, was the owner of Cobra Video and was found dead at his home on January 24, 2007.

[7] Two Virginia Beach male escorts, Harlow Cuadra and Joseph Kerekes, were arrested and charged with Kocis's murder.

[10][11] Prosecutors said the motives for the murder were to destroy the competition and to make a "million-dollar" film starring Lockhart, who had been involved in litigation with Cobra over the rights to his stage name "Brent Corrigan"; the matter settled before Kocis's death.

[13] In a 2008 interview with Chicago Pride, Lockhart said he had consented to doing bareback as he was falsely informed he was being "protected" by the producer by the method used of pairing models.

During the interview he stated, "I would like to stand up for young men who are/were put in similar, compromising positions as I was at Cobra Video.

"[6] He has been a vocal advocate of safer sex and has remained critical of the pornographic industry for its continued release of bareback pornography, which he says sends out the wrong message to young gay men.

He has warned about the social impact on gay and bisexual men's decision-making, especially when in the heat of lust and passion while influenced by alcohol or drugs.

He had a guest appearance in Casper Andreas' film The Big Gay Musical as Hustler and played Chad in the 2011 feature Sister Mary, directed and written by Scott Grenke.

In conjunction with this, he appeared in Full Moon Fever: Behind the Scenes of I Was a Teenage Werebear, a documentary short, and Chillerama Presents: Anton Troy, the Man Behind the Beast, both in 2011.

After appearing in the comedy short "Welcome to New York", Lockhart co-starred as Caleb, with Rob Moretti, in the latter's 2013 psychological thriller film Truth.

"[21] Gay Celluloid said, "Filled with some passionate scenes of man-on-man lip-service and more, backed by the vibrant music of Chad Siwik and filmed, in part, in the lush location of Topanga Canyon, California, this feature frankly ticks many of the requisite boxes on the 'festival favourites' checklist and goes on to say what makes this work of particular note, is that the film cinematically marks the directorial debut of Sean Paul Lockhart; perhaps better known to the gay world as Brent Corrigan.
