Hudson Williams, the breakout star of Heated Rivalry, is taking his career to the next level.

According to Deadline, the 24-year-old Canadian actor, who plays Shane Hollander in the hit Crave and HBO Max series, has officially signed with CAA (Creative Artists Agency), one of Hollywood’s most powerful talent agencies.

CAA represents an A-list roster of film and TV talent across genres and platforms, and Hudson’s addition signals strong industry belief in his rising star power.

This milestone comes in the midst of Heated Rivalry’s global breakout, a show that has not only dominated streaming buzz but also turned its leads into household names. Williams’ performance as Shane has been central to that surge, earning him attention from fans and now from top Hollywood representation.

Signing with CAA opens new doors for Hudson, from bigger screen opportunities to potential cross-market roles — and fans are already speculating what comes next. Whether it’s a dramatic turn in TV, a leap into film or even blockbuster territory, all eyes are now on where Hudson Williams goes from here.
