Derek Kage, born James Jeremy Harper on May 29, 1984, in Huntsville, Alabama, USA, is a celebrated American adult film actor specializing in gay pornography. Standing 6'0" tall, weighing 200 lbs, with brown hair, blue eyes, and tattoos, he entered the industry in 2022 at age 38 after overcoming a tumultuous early life of adversity and difficulty fitting in.

His rapid rise earned a 2024 GayVN Best Actor for 'Overdrive,' multiple Performer of the Year nominations, Grabby Fan Favorite, and AVN nods for outrageous and trans scenes. Kage credits the industry with saving his life, embracing kinks and staying single to focus on his career.
