More previews of the annotated scripts from Jacob Tierney’s book I’ll Believe in Anything.

“Jane and Lily♥️”

via heatedrivalryhq
"OLYMPIANS": EPISODE 2, SCENE 14 INT. CONDO-BEDROOM-NIGHT Shane is in his bed with his phone. He's looking at pictures of Ilya - playing hockey, with some girls at a club, shirtless... He starts typing: JANE: And what do I get if Montreal wins? He doesn't have to wait long. LILY: Same thing. Kissy face. Shane doesn't answer, but he blushes. BLACK SUPERIMPOSE: OCTOBER, MONTREAL, 2013 In the book, Rachel Reid skips two years, and I had to make up that time and problem-solve in real life, because I didn't know what else to do with it. So that's why I came up with this idea of Shane and llya texting for two years, trying to see each other but having schedules that don't work. The problem was also rooted in a bit of timidity on Shane's part. I thank Rachel because it gave me a chance to use Wet Leg's "Mangetout." "OLYMPIANS": EPISODE 2, SCENE 57 We cut back to the TV - and see the Cup being handed to Ilya Rozanov. His face is red with exertion and joy and so much rage. He lifts the Cup above his head and screams, tears pour down his cheeks. We cut back to Shane. He's crying too. I don't think Shane knew he could be this happy for Ilya, and yet there he is, being a great supportive partner in a way he doesn't even know that he is yet. It was a moment of unexpected and private tenderness, a moment that I think is so revealing. "OLYMPIANS": EPISODE 2, SCENE 82 INT. SHANE'S CONDO-LIVING ROOM-NIGHT Ilya is walking towards him smiling. SHANE You asked. ILYA No I didn't. And then Ilya takes his face and kisses him. Shane melts. They part and look at each other. ILYA (CONT.) (tenderly) So where do you want me? On the couch? In the kitchen? The interesting line to walk with Ilya is that he feels so much more than he lets on, and he is ultimately so careful about protecting himself. I wanted to see those cracks emerge early on because there's a lot of debate about who falls first. I think they fall at the same time, and it's instant. "OLYMPIANS": EPISODE 2, SCENE 88 SHANE Your cab is definitely here. Ilya has been slowly leaning down this whole time and kisses Shane softly on the mouth. Shane can barely kiss him back through his wide smile. Connor and Hudson did this scene a few different ways, and I ended up using the sweetest one. I made that choice a lot throughout because their tenderness was so special, and in a show that relies so heavily on behavior and subtext, I loved any little moment where they were unguarded and enjoying themselves even if their characters regret it later. I kept them all in, because we are making a love story here, and it's important to thread in that tenderness, especially after a really physical sexual scene like that.

“I’ll Believe In Anything: The Making of Heated Rivalry Season 1” is available for pre-order!

“An official and complete collection of annotated scripts for the biggest cultural sensation of the year, with all new exclusive behind-the-scenes content.”

🔗: www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/jacob...
THE ANNOTATED SCRIPTS I'LL BELIEVE IN ANYTHING THE MAKING Of HEATED RIVALRY SEASON 1 JACOB TIERNEY COVER TO BE REVEALED Expected publication date is October 13, 2026. Overview From Jacob Tierney, the creator of Heated Rivalry, in partnership with Brendan Brady and Accent Aigu, comes I'll Believe in Anything, an official, and complete, collection of annotated scripts for the biggest cultural sensation of the year, with all new exclusive behind-the-scenes content. Based on Rachel Reid's blockbuster Game Changers book series, Heated Rivalry premiered on Crave and HBO in late 2025 and immediately took the world by storm. I'll Believe in Anything takes readers behind the curtain, showing how Tierney, his producing partner Brendan Brady, and the entire Accent Aigu team drew on a deep reverence for Reid's work, impeccable casting, clever sets and costume design, and thoughtful sex scene choreography to both rewrite the playbook for adapting romance novels to the screen, and obliterate the long-held misconception that queer love stories have limited appeal. I'll Believe in Anything answers all the questions fans of this groundbreaking series have been asking. How did Tierney interweave Ilya and Shane's rivalry with Scott and Kip's love story to create the ultimate television moment? Where did the idea for that incredible Canadian Olympic fleece originate? And what does it look like for a full team, led by Tierney and Brady, to plan, choreograph, and film some of the best sex scenes in television history? Featuring annotations including scene directions, intimacy choreography, costume insights, and more, alongside Tierney's never-before-seen scripts, this book gives fans a brand-new way to come to the cottage!

Costume designer Hanna Puley talks to The Nod Mag about working on “Heated Rivalry” and her thoughts on season 2!

🔗: thenodmag.com/content/heat...
Even the smallest costume details carry emotional weight. Ilya's cross pendant, which appears throughout the series, isn't acknowledged explicitly on the show but comes directly from the source material: it belonged to the character's mother. "The chain is a little bit shorter because it's a woman's necklace. Connor |Storriel wore it throughout the shoot. We had multiples, but I don't think we ever used any because he never took it off—even off set." Artefacts like these, she adds, often help actors inhabit their characters more fully. When the series returns for the second season, Puley suspects the characters' wardrobes may begin to evolve along with their relationship. After all, couples inevitably influence or mirror each other's style. "Maybe Shane and Ilya will start dressing more alike," she says. "Clothing is such a marker of your environment, your community, and how you see yourself.
