(Los Angeles, CA / February 21, 2024) — John Legendary officially announces his availability for full-time studio work, as the former part-time adult film performer opens up to the New York Post about his professional transition from engineer at a defense contracting company to leading man.
In the new feature interview, Legendary, a two-time AVN Award winner – 2023 for ‘Best Foursome/Orgy Scene and a 2024 Fan Award for ‘Favorite Male Indie Creator’ – discusses his job termination – presumably due to ‘cost-cutting’, but more likely the discovery of the star’s extracurricular onscreen work – when his supervisor hinted that she knew his identity.
“We got a new senior supervisor a few weeks ago, and she kept hinting… she was like ‘You look familiar, have we met before?’ I work remote, so she would only see me on Zoom… [but] she kept mentioning it,” says Legendary in the piece, who explains that he began shooting amateur adult content ‘out of curiosity’.
“I was in the hotwife lifestyle… I would f–k wives while the husbands would film me, so I was doing that and I was comfortable with husbands filming… I was f–king these wives for free. I was just doing that as my Saturday night hobby, my kink I did on the weekend. What would it be like to f–k pornstars and get paid for it?”
As he turns the page on a new chapter in the story of John Legendary, the actor and filmmaker – Legendary currently produces original content through his LegendaryX.com website – is feeling optimistic about the future.
“I’m from Detroit, Michigan and I’m like ‘Hmm, I’d love to be a porn star one day… you’d watch your dad’s VHS tapes and be like ‘Man, I want to do that one day,’ but you don’t really think you can actually do it. But when you live in LA, you’d be surprised by what you can actually make happen.”

ABOUT JOHN LEGENDARY:
Aerospace defense engineer-turned-rising adult film icon John Legendary is creating big buzz in the biz as a masterful performer, producer and director since launching his blazing career in 2021.
Growing up in Detroit, he had sky-high ambitions from the start: naturally athletic and studious, his academic and athletic prowess served him well through high school and college, where he started as a middle-distance runner before his interests shifted to Greek life and he became more socially – and sexually – active, earning the popular student the prophetic nickname ‘porn star’. Paraphrasing the great philosopher Prince, the future Mr. John Legendary had a lion in his pocket, and baby, he was ready to roar.
Armed with two Master’s degrees and an MBA, Legendary initially pursued a career in the aerospace & defense industry, also working in fashion, auto and tech jobs. Despite success in these fields, he yearned for a career fueled by passion… and finally found it when, after joining in on the swinging/hotwife lifestyle as a bull, decided to explore his options in Porn Valley.
Now working for the industry’s top studios, Legendary has not only made his mark as an onscreen talent, he’s also the creative force behind his popular Date Nights and Three the Hard Way XXX series, as well as his newly-launched production brand LegendaryX.com. He’s since been nominated for several awards that highlight his considerable talents, and in 2023 won a Best Foursome/Orgy Scene award and XBIZ Best Sex Scene-Vignette award for his high-profile performance in Blacked Raw’s High Gear.
