Connor Storrie on Heated Rivalry Russian Accent

Heated Rivalry's Francois Arnault reveals why everyone is hooked on the show, and it's not about the sex

Connor Storrie he had a clear plan of action when it came to embodying Ilya Rozanov.

Heated rivalry actor and Texas native who co-stars Hudson Williams And Francois Arnault V Rachel Reed adaptation, has shocked fans with his impeccable Russian accent and conversational skills, and his overall practice truly makes perfect.

“It was about timing and consistency,” Connor said. Behind the blinds in an interview released January 5th.”The moment I got out of the car on the set, I started speaking with an accent to all the administrators, advertisers, hairdressers, make-up artists and costume designers. I stayed in it until the last break of the day. Not because I was “in character,” but because they gave me an hour and a half to warm up.”

And while the 25-year-old wowed fans with his portrayal of the Russian hockey star, he admitted he found the accent “ridiculous” at first.

“You think, ‘I’m not saying that,’” he continued. “Of course not. But if you normalize it – both for yourself and for the people around you – it starts to seem real. I think that's why people convince themselves that they have a bad accent. They don't allow themselves to speak incorrectly at first.”
