Jacob on Season 2: “This Show Is Not Built on Secrets” [Hollywood Reporter, August 17, 2026]

“What’s so funny about the level of secrecy is like there’s a book — you can just look at it,” creator, writer and director Jacob Tierney said of the Rachel Reid novels, the Game Changers series, the show is adapted from. “It’ll tell you honestly, 90 percent of what you’d like to know is in that book.”

Video of Hudson talking about how he turns to Connor when the fame and noise is affecting him. So glad these two have each other!

A fan asked Connor to sign “gimme a kiss” so she could make it into a tattoo!

Imagine having that beautiful penmanship inked on you!

Connor is booked and busy! Heated Rivalry S2 starts filming August 10th - time to start prepping for those Russian monologues.

I know that “Turpentine” was announced to film through end of June. I wonder when “Please” that other A24 movie he booked films and if he’ll get a little downtime in July or just go right to the next set. What a year it’s been for Connor working around the clock!

Edit: “Please” films in July and the full dates for S2 production are Aug 10 - Dec 2nd (thanks Suspicious Square for the additional info in the comments!)

The amazing womanlypanther is back with a new fic and I can already tell that I’m not prepared!

Sea Change by womanlypanther: https://archiveofourown.org/works/85553131

Summary:
With the Montreal Metros suddenly in need of a new head coach, General Manager Shane Hollander turns to the one person who might know more about winning than he does: his fellow Hall of Famer and ex-decade long situationship, Ilya Rozanov.

But what starts as a simple job offer soon becomes a life-altering sea change neither could have ever imagined.

Visions from the Future (https://archiveofourown.org/works/71760291) was the first fanfic I ever read and it’s stuck with me ever since. I’m so excited for another work by womanlypanther!

Cute BTS video of on-set rituals! But I think I’d explode if I drank 20 seltzers a day like Connor!

Also the more interesting part is the whole Connor and Hudson licking each other before a scene. But I somehow still stuck on how bloated I’d be if I drank 20 seltzers a day! Let alone was filmed half dressed during it. 🤣

Francois is very funny about Connor staying in his Russian accent at lunch!

Would have loved it to be same woman who did his curls at theTiffany’s event (akgroomer), but I’m sure whatever they do today, he’ll look amazing! He always does!
