"Honestly, being the villain in a Marvel film is the smartest way to jump in, make bank, and not be tied down forever," another said.

This actually wouldn't be Storrie's first foray into the superhero world, as he had a small role in the 2024 DC Studios sequel Joker: Folie à Deux.

The following year, he began starring in Heated Rivalry as the fictional Russian hockey star Ilya Rozanov opposite Hudson Williams' Shane Hollander.

The Canadian series, based on the book series by Rachel Reid, became such a phenomenon that season 2 – set to debut next month – will be screened in select movie theaters across the globe!
