Lucien Laviscourt: Shirtless in soaps, romcoms, Shakespeare, Archie comics. With frontal nudity

In 2020, during the COVID lockdown, everybody watched the Netflix series Emily in Paris, because they couldn't get to the real Paris. Surprise -- it's still streaming, with Season 4 coming up. The hapless social media content creator and her friends are still falling in love at the drop of a script, with Lucas Bravo, Charles Martins, Kevin Diaz, Paul Forman, and most recently Lucien Laviscount.

The British actor -- I know, I thought he was French, too -- has 43 credits listed on the IMDB, beginning with Clocking Off, 2002.

The interconnected lives of Manchester mill workers.  I wonder if they do a Full Monty.

Soap stud roles followed: 13 episodes of Grange Hill, 34 episodes of  Coronation Street, 18 episodes of Waterloo Road.  Plus guest spots on Life Bites, Father & Son, New Tricks, Shameless, Mount Pleasant...well, the list goes on and on.

I might want to see Still Star-Crossed, set in Verona shortly after the deaths of Romeo and Juliet, with new Montague-Capulet lovers investigating political machinations. Lucien plays Romeo in a flashback.

Plus a lot of modeling, here for Tommy Hilfinger.  I guess they're supposed to be very close teammates, not boyfriends.  But you never know.

The Bye-Bye Man, 2017, is Lucien's first starring role: "three friends stumble upon the horrific origins of a mysterious figure they discover is the root cause of the evil behind unspeakable acts."  

 Got all that? A bit overblown, with way too many adjectives, but I gather that we're working down from unspeakable acts caused by an evil caused by a mysterious figure who has horrific origins. 

Ulp. All you really need to know is it's all straight people, and Lucien shows his butt.

Another starring role in Snatch, 2017-2018, about...well, the IMDB description is suffering from adjective overload, but it's about con artists who get in over their heads.  The guys, Lucien and Rupert Grint, have a gay-subtext buddy-bond that gets ruined when they both fall in love with The Girl.

Katy Keene, 2020-21, was an ill-fated attempt to hit Riverdale gold by shoving minor Archie Comics characters like Alexander Cabot III into modern-day New York.   

More Lucien after the break

In the comics, Alex Cabot, manager of Josie and the Pussycats, is a self-styled but ineffective ladies' man.  On tv, he's a recovering drug addict who used to date his step-sister Alexandra. Twin sister in the comics. Yuck.

Peacock, 2022-, is impossible to research.  Who thought up the idea of a title identical to the NBC logo and its streaming service?  The IMDB says that it's about a personal trainer, promising lots of gym hunks, but the AI says that it's about "a man out of time," an old guy trying to compete with a gym full of young hotties.  Lucien plays rival personal trainer Jay.

When I tried to determine if Lucien has played any gay roles, all that googled up was "He is NOT GAY!  He is a REAL MAN! Why y'all gotta spread lies?  Why haters gotta hate?"

But what about this shot from What We Know, 2020?  It's actually about a man and a woman falling in love, and Lucien does not appear in the cast list, but you never know.

But we do have insider knowledge of his penis.  Lucien has favored us with a j/o video.  Here we see the beginning of a flag pole.  It doesn't make up for the absence of gay characters, but it's a start.

Don't try the limp-wrist bit now, dude.  We all know that you're straight.
