Loved the ‘Heated Rivalry’? watch our hunks here next!

If Heated Rivalry hijacked your nervous system and reset your expectations for on-screen chemistry, you’re not alone. The good news? The cast didn’t vanish after the credits rolled. They expanded — into fashion, film, prestige TV, and live network comedy.

Here’s exactly where to watch them next.

Hudson Williams (Shane Hollander)

Hudson Williams broke out as Shane Hollander on Heated Rivalry, delivering a performance that balanced physical intensity with emotional restraint. As the fiercely competitive hockey star navigating ambition, vulnerability, and forbidden attraction, Williams became one half of the series’ central dynamic — and a fan fixation almost overnight.

Before the global attention, Williams was largely unknown to mainstream audiences. That anonymity worked in his favor. There was no prior persona to project onto Shane, which allowed viewers to fully invest in the character. His athletic build and disciplined physicality made the sports sequences credible, while his quieter, interior moments gave the role depth beyond trope.

Hudson Williams has moved decisively into high fashion since breaking out as Shane.

In January 2026, he opened the Dsquared2 Fall/Winter 2026 show at Milan Fashion Week — a major industry signal. He’s also landed glossy fashion editorials and a cover for Wonderland magazine, positioning himself as a legitimate actor-model crossover.

On screen, Heated Rivalry remains his primary credit, with season two in development.

Where to watch him:

• Heated Rivalry — streaming on Max (U.S.) and Crave (Canada)

Connor Storrie (Ilya Rozanov)

Connor Storrie’s breakout as Ilya Rozanov in Heated Rivalry may have introduced him to a global audience, but his performance instincts were shaped long before prestige television came calling. Before stepping into the skates of a fiercely competitive hockey star, Storrie trained as a clown — a background that quietly informs everything he does on screen. The throughline is performance as craft. Whether in a dramatic close-up or a live comedy monologue, Connor Storrie operates from a physical, embodied tradition. The clown training wasn’t a detour. It was groundwork.

Connor Storrie’s trajectory has been fast and strategic.

He is set to host Saturday Night Live on NBC in February 2026 — a milestone that cements his mainstream breakout.

Recent credits include:

• Joker: Folie à Deux (2024)

• Indie thriller April X (2025)

• Audio romance series Ember & Ice

He also signed with Creative Artists Agency and carried the 2026 Winter Olympics torch in Italy.

Where to watch him:

• Saturday Night Live — NBC / Peacock

• Joker: Folie à Deux — theatrical and digital VOD

From prestige romance to live sketch comedy in under a year is not accidental. That’s momentum.

François Arnaud (Scott Hunter)

François Arnaud came into Heated Rivalry with serious television pedigree.

You can binge him in:

• The Borgias (Showtime)

• Midnight, Texas (NBC)

• Blindspot

Streaming availability rotates between Paramount+, Prime Video, and digital rental platforms.

If you’re looking for a deeper Arnaud dive, the catalog is there.

Sophie Nélisse (Rose Landry)

Sophie Nélisse was already established long before Heated Rivalry.

Watch her in:

• Yellowjackets — streaming via Paramount+ / Showtime

• The Book Thief — available on digital VOD and Disney+ (region dependent)

She moves comfortably between psychological survival drama and literary prestige roles.

Christina Chang (Yuna Hollander)

Christina Chang brings veteran network presence to the series.

Catch her in:

• The Good Doctor — streaming on Hulu

• 24

• CSI: Miami

If you’ve spent any time in early-2000s appointment television, you’ve seen her work.

Callan Potter (Hayden Pike)

Before Heated Rivalry, Callan Potter was known for youth and teen programming.

Watch him in:

• The Other Kingdom — Nickelodeon

He also appears across Canadian dramas that rotate onto Prime Video and digital VOD depending on territory.

The takeaway

Heated Rivalry didn’t just create a fandom. It created leverage.

Hudson Williams is opening Milan runways. Connor Storrie is hosting SNL. The supporting cast already has binge-ready catalogs across major streamers.

If you’re not done with them, you don’t have to be. Just switch platforms.
