Toronto Film Festival; Crave/HBO Max
Heated Rivalry episode 4 introduced fans to Connors, another pro hockey player who rooms with fellow teammate Ilya Rozanov (Connor Storrie) and is played by Harrison Browne. After dedicating his entire life to hockey, coming out as a trans man, and starting an acting career, Browne still struggled to land roles on hockey-themed movies and TV shows. However, let's just say that 2025 was a game changer (pun intended) for Browne, who went on to write, direct, and star in his own short film, Pink Light, and had his talents recognized by showrunner Jacob Tierney, who secured him a role on the hit TV show from Crave and HBO Max.

Under showrunner Jacob Tierney, the main focus of Heated Rivalry is on the love story between Shane Hollander (Hudson Williams) and Ilya Rozanov (Connor Storrie)... except for the third episode, titled "Hunter," that takes a detour to explore Scott's love story with Kip Grady (Robbie G.K.).
