LOS ANGELES—With a passion for cooking, heavy metal and parkour, Nathan Bronson never figured he would be among the busiest male stars in the industry.
“It’s been a long, strange journey,” he said. “But I’m grateful to be a part of this industry and explore my creativity and sexuality.”
Bronson’s good looks and energetic personality are featured in One Night in L.A., an upcoming feature from veteran director Ricky Greenwood and Marc Dorcel, releasing later this year.
In the film, Bronson portrays an assistant to a famous actor (Dante Colle) who gets all the girls, but needs his assistant to impersonate him when he sexts the girls. Soon, Bronson’s assistant character finds common ground with one Colle’s girlfriends (Kenna James) and they begin hooking up behind his boss’s back.
The movie is his biggest role as Bronson continues his rise into the industry's upper echelon of male performers a year after the COVID-19 pandemic and national lockdown slowed production to a halt.
“Things were pretty bad last year, then Ricky hired me in July—I think I was a replacement for somebody and the crew said I was a solid performer, so I got the job,” Bronson recalled. “But Ricky liked me and he kept hiring me for his movies. It totally saved my life.”
Having entered the industry in 2015, Bronson forged a solid resume thanks to his work with a number of top adult studios and directors. But the pandemic changed all that and work was scant, with jobs few and far between when Bronson began teaming up with Greenwood on a number of films, earning him more bookings as word got around about his performances.
Today, with more than 600 scenes for a variety of top studios and production houses under his belt, Bronson is seeing greater things ahead as the pandemic lessens and the industry returns to its usual production levels.
With a number of award nominations and increased buzz about him and his work, Bronson may soon earn his first major award. But it’s all gravy if he finally receives one, he says, since he’s already earned the support and respect of many in the industry.
“I was a chef before this and I did stunts before that and I realized you have to work hard and you need people to fucking like you or you’re not going to work a lot in this business,” said Bronson, who is represented by OC Modeling. “I just try to make everyone’s life as easy as possible and try to make everyone have a good time on set.”
It was just a few years ago that Bronson was going to heavy metal concerts and working odd jobs before getting hired as a chef at a Santa Barbara restaurant when the previous chef was abruptly fired. He soon discovered his culinary talents and became one of the restaurant’s most important staff members.
Within a couple of years, however, the eatery was forced to move when its landlord sold the building and the new location did not draw as many customers, prompting its closure just a year later.
In the meantime, Bronson’s passion for parkour—the running and jumping discipline that entails users jumping over obstacles or buildings—led him to do stunt work in movies and television shows. Although the work was at times rewarding, it often was not enough to cover his living expenses. He then gravitated toward porn to supplement his income.
“My first shoot was with Nuru Massage with Barrett Blade directing and with Tiffany Watson,” he recalled. “It was real interesting. There were no condoms and it was an easy shoot. Everything went really good that day and I realized how easy it was to do.”
Although Bronson continues to do stunt work from time to time, he remains committed to his adult work and his fans. Most recently, Bronson also stars in MissaX's taboo-themed "The Real Thing," from director Ricky Greenwood. The plot revolves around a stepson Mark (played by Bronson) and his stepmom, Linda (Lilly James), who is using dating apps. To watch the scene, click here.
Bronson also stars in Adam & Eve Originals’ newest release Heavenly Radio, which features Misty Stone as a young woman stuck between heaven and hell who needs to atone for a life of sin and sexual exploits. She gets a second chance to host a radio podcast and give advice to listeners like Dr. Spencer Bradley and Bronson, who hook up while listening to Misty’s show in the examining room. The movie was written and directed by Will Ryder and also stars Gianna Dior, Sofi Ryan, Tyler Nixon, Robby Echo, Jake Adams and Frank Bukkwyd.
Meanwhile, when he’s not shooting or creating content for his fans on Clips4Sale, ManyVids and OnlyFans, Bronson enjoys his down time doing what he loves most:
“I love to cook, I love parkour and I love to hang out with my girl,” he said. “It’s all about cooking, doing parkour, but I’m also playing guitar again.”
Bronson can be booked through OC Modeling.
