Robert Gant's new gay spy series wraps first film

Espionage and intrigue are coming soon to here! with their upcoming movie Kiss Me Deadly: A Jacob Keane Assignment. It's the first installment in a new film series starring Robert Gant as a sexy, sexy retired spy (okay, the press release doesn't specify the "sexy" part but with Gant in the lead, I'd say it's a safe bet) who is drawn back into his old life by a woman from his past (played by Shannen Doherty). Kiss Me Deadly also stars Ian Roberts, the former Australian Rugby player-turned actor who came out in 1995, as well as John Rhys-Davies.

Considering how James Bond has made audiences associate international espionage with sex and style, a gay spy story seems a natural fit for here!'s film series. Grant's character, the eponymous Jacob Keane, has a loving boyfriend, which probably means the film won't have a series of "Keane guys" for Jacob to seduce in every film. I guess I'll have to be happy just eying Gant ... and he's plenty of eye candy already.

Kiss Me Deadly will be available to here! subscribers in November. In the meantime enjoy a few more pix of Mister Gant:
