Heated Rivalry's Connor Storrie Debuts Shaggy Hair on Golden Globes Red Carpet
· The Fresno BeeHeated Rivalry breakout star Connor Storrie is leaning into the heartthrob energy at the 2026 Golden Globes.
While walking the red carpet at the Sunday, January 11, awards show, Storrie, 25, rocked a slim-fit Saint Laurent black suit, paired with a white dress shirt and skinny black tie.
He completed the look with a pair of rounded shades, a Jean Schlumberger by Tiffany & Co. Bird on a Rock brooch and other items from the famed jeweler. His hair also turned heads, styling his locks in a shaggy mod cut.
Storrie's costar and onscreen love interest, Hudson Williams, also opted for a sophisticated look for the ceremony held at The Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles.
Williams, 24, looked dapper in a white Giorgio Armani jacket, paired with a white silk shirt and a white cummerbund. He opted for patent square-toe dress shoes and a gold Bulgari linked necklace.
While posing on the red carpet, Williams quipped in social media footage that he was feeling "sweaty" before smiling for the camera.
"This is crazy. I'm not sure how well I'm handling it, but very grateful to be here," Williams told E! News on the red carpet, before weighing in on how he's doing with the newfound fame. "I'm not overwhelmed by the grand scale. But I'm more overwhelmed by how many emails I have to get through. That inbox keeps filling up."
Williams is set to present at the 83rd annual Golden Globes alongside Storrie, marking their first appearance at an awards show since skyrocketing to fame with Heated Rivalry. Williams and Storrie respectively star on the series as professional hockey players Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov, who begin a secret romance.
While Heated Rivalry premiered on Crave in November 2025, it was then available to a wider audience through HBO Max - and was quickly embraced by viewers, namely for the chemistry between Storrie and Williams.
"We're both pretty tactile people in terms of love languages and how you express yourself," Storrie told Swooon at the time. "We both like physical touch, whether it's with friends, family, partners."
He continued, "When these characters are feeling good towards each other, I think we knew consciously to allow that to come out. The fun of that ends up being what it looks like [for Shane and Ilya], and how it is different from us, personally. That's an impulse that is kind of naturally within us. We also became super close, super quick, so that makes it even easier, too."
While the series - which is based on Rachel Reid‘s Game Changers series - has already been renewed for season 2, Williams teased that the show likely won't be released until 2027.
"This season adapted two books. What [creator] Jacob Tierney does for season 2, I don't know," Williams told Andy Cohen during his Wednesday, January 7, appearance on SiriusXM's Andy Cohen Live. "But this killed him. … What people don't know is, like, he was [turning in] final cuts of the episodes two days before they screened."
Williams continued, "Finally I called him recently after the final episode went out and I was like, ‘How are you doing?' He was like, ‘Good.' I was like, ‘Why do you sound like a ghoul?' And he's like, ‘The show, it's killed me like a ghoul.' And I was like, ‘God.' I was like, ‘I'm going to hang up because this is making me uncomfortable listening to you like this, but, like, go drink some, like, honey tea.'"
