Heated Rivalry breakout star Connor Storrie has been confirmed as a host of Saturday Night Live later this month.
The 25-year-old plays Ilya Rozanov in the Canadian drama, which follows the burgeoning same-sex relationship between two pro hockey players.
“I am literally the luckiest person in the world,” Storrie wrote on social media after the announcement of his episode, which will air on February 28 in the US.

Mumford & Sons will be the musical guest on the episode in promotion of their new studio album, due out a week prior.
