The Falcon Family of Companies has been a leading producer of gay pornographic films since the 1970s. Falcon Entertainment is based in San Francisco, California, USA, Falcon Entertainment produces videos and DVDs showing explicit sexual activity between men under a variety of company names. The Falcon Family of Companies consists of:

  • Falcon Studios is the group's main brand, with the highest production quality and aesthetic values.
  • Jocks Studios focuses on younger models.
  • Mustang Studios features more mature models.
  • The Falcon International Collection focuses on European (mostly Eastern European) models, filmed in Europe.
  • The Alone With Series provides interviews with the performers and solo sessions (i.e., where the performer masturbates and does not have sex with another performer).

The Falcon Family of Companies produces and distributes content through FalconTV, Falcon Flix, its web site at www.falconstudios.com and adult video retailers worldwide. The company licenses the Falcon trademark for the Falcon Accessory line of personal items.

Falcon is also known for erotic gay sex in international locations. Some films have taken place with such backdrops as Hawaii, Paris, Sydney, New Zealand, London, Los Angeles, and San Francisco.

Falcon was founded by Charles (Chuck) Holmes, originally of Terre Haute, Indiana, who died of AIDS complications in September 2000. He was 55. Holmes was succeeded by the company's president, John Rutherford, and vice president Terry Mahaffey. Falcon is currently led by Todd Montgomery.

Many notable gay porn industry performers and directors have started their careers either in front or behind the camera. Notable Falcon alumni include:

Falcon has positioned itself as a philanthropic entity. All of Falcon's post-expense profits are donated to the Charles M. Holmes Foundation, which distributes funds to charitable organizations, including HIV/AIDS outreach programs, the Human Rights Campaign, the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN), the Gay & Lesbian Victory Fund and the U.S. Holocaust Museum. In 2002, the foundation donated USD $1 million (the largest single-contributor gift) to finish San Francisco's Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Community Center, which is named for Holmes.
