He then received an exclusive contract with Lucas Kazan and Kristen Bjorn , two of the most famous studios for gay pornography.

He then worked in the Lucas Kazan production Decameron: Two Naughty Tales (2004), which translates motifs from Boccaccio's Decamerone into gay pornography. He embodied the farmer Zeppa; Franko had oral sex and active / passive anal sex with Slovak pornstar Eric Flower in the film . In particular, the reviews pointed to Franko's ability to produce impressive multiple cumshots .

In Love and Lust (2005) he played a horny neighbor who no longer believes in love and sees men as objects of pleasure. In a film review, his role is characterized as a "local man-whore". Franko was seen in several scenes, for example in the opening scene, a threesome with Matthias Vannelli and Lucas Andrades, and in a scene with the Hungarian porn actor Julian Vincenzo , in which Franko again acted as bottom. For the DVD release of the film Love and Lust , Franko was selected as the cover model .

In the multiple award-winning porn film The School of Lovers (2006), a gay variant of the Così fan tutte theme, Franko played the main role of the scheming wire-puller Alfonso; Mozart's character Don Alfonso served as a literary model. For his role, Franko was recognized at the 2007 GayVN Awards in the category "Best Actor in a Foreign Picture" (Best Actor in a Foreign Picture). In The Men I Wanted (2007), Franko had a sex scene with Alexy Tyler in the episode The Swimmer ; the film set was a swimming pool in the sunlight, in the background the hills of Tuscany can be seen.
