User:Scalhotrod/List of mainstream actors who have appeared in pornographic films

This is a list of mainstream actors who have appeared in pornographic films that includes performers who appeared in adult films early and/or later on in their careers, but all are known primarily for their mainstream acting. It should not be inferred or assumed that every actor or actress listed has performed in explicitly sexual scenes, although some have done so. Rather this is a list of documented appearances by mainstream actors that have appeared in soft core and hard core pornographic films (movies) over the course of their careers.
