“Heated Rivalry” star Hudson Williams is going to the Oscars.
Sources tell me that the actor will be attending the 98th annual Academy Awards on Sunday.
Williams and his “Heated Rivalry” co-star Connor Storrie made their awards show presenting debut at the Golden Globes in January. I’m told Storrie is not expected to be at the Oscars. Fellow “Heated Rivalry” actor Robbie G.K. is on the guest list for the Elton John AIDS Foundation Academy Awards Viewing Party.

Co-stars include Carrie-Anne Moss (“The Matrix”), Noah Reid (“Schitt’s Creek”) and Clark Backo (“Letterkenny”).
