C**onnor Storrie** and **Hudson Williams** had us *hooked* on *Heated Rivalry* season 1\. Now everyone's wondering *who will star alongside them in season 2?* Well, we finally have an [answer](https://www.instagram.com/p/DbvxupEjBUA/?img%5Findex=1&ref=celebritykind.ghost.io) with **Charlie Gillespie** and **Justice Smith** joining the show!

Charlie, who's currently starring opposite **Callum Turner** and **Monica Barbaro** in *One Night Only,* has been cast as troubled, and closeted, hockey player Troy Barrett. And Justice, who starred in *Dungeons & Dragons: Honour Among Thieves,* will play openly gay social media manager, Harris Drover.

Connor and Hudson will reprise their roles as Ilya Rozanov and Shane Hollander and their story will continue, but the focus will be on the new leading men this season.

It's based on author Rachel Reid's fifth instalment of the *Game Changers* book series, titled *Role Model,* where Troy and Harris cross paths at the Ottawa Centaurs.

Well, I guess that just leaves one more question - when will *Heated Rivalry* season 2 be released? We don't have an exact date just yet, but we do know it will be out in 2027!
