Hudson Williams is writing a film with an ex-hockey player character

Hudson Williams is writing a film with a character who used to play hockey.

Williams became widely known for playing hockey captain Shane Hollander in the Canadian series Heated Rivalry.

He said he and his collaborators are considering giving the new character a different sport because of the resemblance.

But the character makes most sense to him as a former hockey player, so he is trying to move past that concern.

He has not shared details about the film or said when it might be made.

Meanwhile, production on Heated Rivalry’s second season began in Canada in August, and the season is set to premiere in spring 2027.

We’re getting tripped up on it and we’re considering other sports, but for some reason this character just made way more sense being an ex-hockey player.
