Hudson Williams (Shane Hollander)
Hudson can currently be heard voicing the fae prince Finn in the Quinn Original series Ember & Ice. Episode three is debuting this week!
On screen, Hudson has a couple short films in the works, and it was announced that he signed with talent agency CAA!
Just prior to Heated Rivalry coming out, Hudson filmed a project called Yoko Loko.
“Yoko Loko is probably the most ambitious one I’ve done within four or five years,” he told The Permanent Rain Press. “Ideally, it’s a proof of concept to serve as a pitch for a feature version of it. And it’s about this middle-aged, or approaching middled-aged woman named Yoko, who is a kind of a badass drug dealer, and she has this interesting dichotomy between wanting to be Audrey Hepburn and then other days wanting to be like Tupac. Her vice is sort of romancing younger men to sort of connect her to feeling youthful.”
He also has two other projects, Encore and 8.
In addition, Hudson will also be seen in the upcoming Netflix series The Altruists, which stars Julia Garner and Anthony Boyle, among others. Since the show is based on the real life cryptocurrency exchange FTX, Hudson will be playing a real life person. Barack and Michelle Obama serve as executive producers.
Connor Storrie (Ilya Rozanov)
Connor can also currently be heard in the Quinn Original series Ember & Ice, voicing Dane. Episode three is debuting this week!
Just before kicking off press for Heated Rivalry, Connor wrapped filming on his upcoming feature film directorial debut, Transaction Planet, which he shot entirely on an iPhone.
“I have yet to finish [it,] that’s going into post soon. I hadn’t worked as an actor since Heated Rivalry, so I had a little bit of money left. I spent a solid amount of the money that I had left from Heated Rivalry, and it was pretty much looking like if nothing took off after Heated Rivalry, then it was only a matter of months until I’d have to go get another serving job again. So I splurged on my feature film,” he told Interview magazine. “It’s super absurdist and bizarre, but it’s just so much fun. It feels like early John Waters meets Pi by Darren Aronofsky meets a little bit of Sean Baker. It’s a bunch of first films from filmmakers that I enjoy that just resonate, with the resources that I have, the artistic sensibility that I have right now. It’s about an alien spirit that incarnates into a human body and just drops into a random 25-year-old human body, played by Gabe Kessler, and then goes on a journey and pretty much gets screwed over for an hour-and-a-half.”
Connor is also set to star in an indie movie called April X, which centers on Baxter (Storrie) and April (Lilly Krug), twin siblings in near-future Russia. When April goes missing, Baxter goes on a mission to find his sister in a punishing metropolis that challenges his sanity.
Much like his co-star, Hudson, Connor has also reportedly signed with CAA, though no official announcement was made.
