"I am very excited to have found such a gorgeous guy that has never been in porn; he is my real discovery. Matan has a very strong sexual appetite and he’s completely versatile. Everything: his sculpted body, beautiful face, big dick and bubble butt are all five stars," said Lucas Entertainment CEO Michael Lucas.
A studio rep said Shalev comes from a farming family and was born in "the Israeli agricultural sub-community of Kibbutz Lotan, located in the Negev Desert."
He worked in the family business as a teen and also earned a brown belt in karate. At 18, Shalev joined the Israeli military and served for three years, including a stint with the military police. He was later trained as a fitness instructor for elite units of soldiers.
"His physique is incredible and carries such passion for his scenes. You can tell Matan truly loves what he is doing and his enthusiasm and lust make it that much more sexy," said mr. Pam, videographer and Lucas Entertainment creative director.
Shalev has signed a five-year contract with the studio and is currently based in New York City. He is in production on the sexpic "Revenge" with "Feet Extreme" already in the can.
The two-disc "Men of Israel" Special Edition set has a July 22 street date. The company has been uploading photo galleries, erotic vignettes and related collateral to its promotional microsite MenofIsraelXXX.com.
