“Heated Rivalry” star Hudson Williams was tight-lipped on the Oscars red carpet, offering just one word to describe what the second season of the adored show has in store: “Sex.”
Williams, who shot to fame earlier this year for playing Shane Hollander in Crave’s steamy Canadian hockey romance, made his first-ever Oscars appearance on Sunday. When speaking with CNN and Variety, the star described the experience as “surreal and gratifying.”
Season 2 is expected to begin shooting this summer, creator Jacob Tierney told Variety’s Marc Malkin at the GLAAD Media Awards earlier this month. “We’re still on track,” he said, also noting that he’s “in a room all day writing.”
While the news will definitely be exciting for eager fans, a certain celebrity in particular is sure to be thrilled as well: Kerry Washington. On Thursday, the “Scandal” actress told Variety that she loves the show. “I just bought one of those candles on Instagram — an ‘I’m coming to the cottage’ candle,” she told Malkin at the “Imperfect Women” premiere. “I’m obsessed.” She even called the series “some of the greatest television in the most recent decades.”
“I love Kerry, man,” Williams said on the carpet. “She’s so talented. To hear that from her was amazing.”
In addition to Season 2 of “Heated Rivalry,” fans will soon be able to see Williams in his next project, “Yaga,” another Crave series. The half-hour drama series is based on a hit play written by Kat Sandler, a Canadian playwright. Other announced cast members include Carrie-Anne Moss (“The Matrix), Noah Reid (“Schitt’s Creek”) and Clark Backo (“Letterkenny”).
