Award season is officially here! That means it’s finally time to drool over some Golden Globe hotties, speculate if Ariana Grande will snatch an Oscar for her *popular* role in Wicked, and – most importantly – root for the multi-talented Falcon | NakedSword Exclusive Sir Peter to take home top honors like Best Actor, Best Directing, and Performer of the Year.
For today’s big awards post, we’re congratulating Falcon | NakedSword by shining a spotlight on the studio group, its stars, and its acclaimed bareback projects that raked in an absolutely massive amount of nominations at the upcoming 2025 XMAs (previously known as the XBIZ Awards) and the 2025 GayVN Awards.
For both the XMAs and GayVNs, movies like Falcon Studios’ horny holiday romp Cum All Ye Faithful and the sun-soaked Raging Stallion movie The Beach House received loads of love with several noms. The hit NakedSword Originals rom-com Heart On earned nominations for everything from Best Feature to Best Screenplay to Best DP Scene with other standout NakedSword projects like Global Entry: South Africa and Bred & Breakfast: All The Way Inn all scoring their own notable noms.
The men of Falcon | NakedSword also came through with their own hefty crop of nominations. Superstar Beau Butler was awarded nominations for major categories like Best Supporting Actor, Gay Performer of the Year, and two different XMAs noms for Best Sex Scene. Hung favorite Sir Peter was also nominated for a slew of awards thanks to his turn as director, producer, and star of the beloved Yes, Sir! from NakedSword X Sir Peter and his versatile work in Sir Peter & Rhyheim: The Main Event.
A huge congratulations to these and all the other nominees we’ve listed out below. Scroll down to take a look at the full list of Falcon | NakedSword noms and check back on The Sword next week to see all of the big winners from Sunday’s XMAs and Monday’s GayVN Awards.
