"The actor, 40, stars as the ice hockey player Scott Hunter in the LGBTQ+ sports drama which primarily focuses on the love story of Ilya Rozanov ( Connor Storrie) and Shane Hollander ( Hudson Williams). The stars and the series as a whole have won acclaim for the show's LGBTQ+ representation and authentic storytelling. Fans have also celebrated the actor's chemistry as well as the intimate scenes."
"Meeting host Gayle King backstage, the Schitt's Creek actor explained he had "always believed in [ Heated Rivalry] and I thought it would find an audience". He then revealed that his previous managers "refused to read it". He explained their reasoning was: "We can't pitch you for big things if you're gonna be doing a random miniseries abroad." Arnaud then confirmed he's with "different managers now"."
"We can't imagine Heated Rivalry without Arnaud! His character, Scott, takes centre stage in the show's "perfectly done" third episode as he meets and falls in love with Kip Grady ( Robbie GK). The episode doesn't end terribly happily but that is rectified at the end of episode five when Scott chooses to come out publicly as gay by kissing Kip after a game."
