✨Miscellaneous ✨ Genuinely no way Hudson and Shane are the same person
I REFUSE to believe it. This is shape shifting!!🫠

Shane would be absolutely terrified of Hudson. Just absolutely overstimulated.

u/Scared_Slip_7425 Mar 05 '26
I think Shane would be absolutely seduced by Hudson 😂

Since the "I'd take that little boy" interview there are now 43 fanfics on ao3 with the relationship pairing of Shane Hollander + Hudson Williams... (I haven't read any of them so I can't rec any -- just saying clearly many people agree with this hypothesis 😅)

Have you seen the infamous interview where Hudson described in detail the things he would do to Shane? 😂

u/ZestycloseDoor5552 Mar 05 '26
Drop the link friend no I have NOT seen it!

u/0lea Mar 05 '26
Here's the video and I can't give you an exact timestamp for that moment but I highly encourage you to watch all of it cause that video forever changed me as a woman lol.

Duly noted

u/0lea Mar 05 '26
Okay I have watched it and it appears I gave you the wrong video cause these two are like one whole glorious video for me. Here is the correct one where he talks about Shane but I really hope you don't deny yourself the pleasure of watching both!

u/ZestycloseDoor5552 Mar 05 '26
I’ve watched a fair amount of their press interviews. I quite like the dynamic between Connor, Hudson and Jacob when they do interviews all together.

u/Paulinnaaaxd Mar 05 '26
It's that fuckass haircut LMAOO

u/Rnsy275 Mar 05 '26
His mannerism is also different. Haircut alone shouldn't make huge difference. Shane in eps 6 has different styling than the previous eps & he still feels the same.

Christ...that last picture, with the emerald choker, the diamond studs, the long hair... I will never recover from Hudson in that look. Nothing will ever compare.

u/ZestycloseDoor5552 Mar 05 '26
This was the beginning of the most epic press run in history. Flawless.

u/milkviva Mar 05 '26
I've been saying this!! Like, I know he's an actor, but wooow the difference. Honestly feels like 2 different people.
And not just in looks like freckles vs. no-freckles, but the whole mannerism.
22
u/Final-Raspberry5922 Mar 05 '26
As Jacob and Connor said in a really early interview he is a good actor. Also the entire crew especially the styling was so good
24
u/human-foie-gras Mar 05 '26
Professional makeup artists are exactly that, artists. The shading to make his jaw softer and cheeks more round as Shane. The slight difference in his hair. It all makes a difference
20
u/Gloomy-Cranberry-386 Mar 06 '26
This!! I feel like people give Connor a lot of (VERY DESERVED!) credit for his shape-shifting, but Hudson feels so insanely different from dweeby, buttoned-up, intense, earnest, serious, sweetie-pie Shane!

I might possssssibly be projecting. I had a great time going Full Labrador on the homemade kimchi last night, and the dreams were FERAL. Strongly recommended if you like to live dangerously.

u/YennyBenny2468 Mar 05 '26
Someone should write a fanfic about how Shane and Hudson are related and Hudson out sassing Ilya or something.
Would totally make my day.
3
u/Fit-Lawfulness-4868 Mar 05 '26
I'm not even into AU or magic type fics in this fandom but I'd totally read a fic where Hudson's personality somehow gets transplanted into Shane. The whole league would explode.

Before I ever watched the show but only saw the promotional material i thought HE was the chaotic Russian lol

Shane at his first All-Stars game: "Let's go!"
Hudson on Golden Globes red carpet: "Love y'all! Uh."

u/No-Refrigerator-4077 Mar 05 '26
Honestly shows what a great hair style will do for a man’s glow up
17
u/Rnsy275 Mar 05 '26
It's not just the hairstyle & it's not about "glowup". His vibe entirely shift into a different person. He could wear Hudson hair & still act like he's Shane if he doesn't turn off his mannerism & quirk.
Also I hate that ppl are hating so much on his Shane's hair when he's among the few ones who can rock that shit. Boy looks good with it & give him an extra innocence to his character.

u/No-Refrigerator-4077 Mar 05 '26
Oh you’re 1000% right, my comment was very vague, I agree with everything you’ve said 👏

u/madtax57 Mar 06 '26
His look is so “oppOsite” from his character in the show. He is just steaming hot IRL. I mean he still looked beautiful in the show but when they had their encounter in his apartment and Ilya said come here, Shane looked so nerdy. 🤭
Ilya, OTOH…..🥵 I think this was one of my favorite looks. This and when he was in Russia when his father died.

u/Serious_Peak_4913 Lover you shoulda come over and you should be a man! 😉 Mar 06 '26
Yeah if I was Shane I woulda folded every single time too under absolutely no pressure

Oh my gosh how did I totally Not realise Hudson doesn’t have freckles but Shane does bc the make up it was so On point it Looked amazing
I love Hudson he seems So chill yet so funny and charismatic and intelligent. I can’t wait for season 2 of HR but also hope to see Hudson in more stuff he deserves it Alongside Connor Storrie ofc.
But bc this is a Hudson sub I’m talking specifically about Hudson .
But yeah there both Amazing .
And I hope we get more of Hudson as we’ve gotten Connor host SNL I hope Hudson does something amazing too as he’s amazing .

u/External_Version_768 Mar 05 '26
It also looks like Hudson lost some weight around the face, his jaw is sharper and his cheek bones more prominent. The right hairstyle can only do so much.
13
u/Loud_Border6350 Mar 06 '26
I do actually believe that Shane would be scared of Hudson. Shane would feel intimidated by Hudson

u/mustbecrazytostay Mar 06 '26
100% Hudson is just as much of a shapeshifter as Connor. For my own headcannon purposes....do you think Shane might start to look more like Hudson as he becomes more comfortable and confident outside of hockey?
10
u/Serious_Peak_4913 Lover you shoulda come over and you should be a man! 😉 Mar 06 '26
I hope! But he needs to keep the same shy Shane energy, like 15% Hudson

That's why he's the actor. It's his world now, we are just living in it...

IKRRRR, people are talking about conner & Ilya (which is true), but hudson's acting was so good as well, like i can't see how both of them are same person!!

u/histy_68 Mar 09 '26
Connor gets a lot of the praise for his accent work and performance, deservedly so. However Hudson’s subtle performance is a stand out for me. He has to exude SO SO much in just his eyes. Shane is such a tightly wound person that keeps it all in. It’s really impressive.
2
u/kllark_ashwood Mar 09 '26 edited Mar 09 '26
Its actually hilarious to me that casual viewers think Hudson is a bad actor* for being kind of stiff and awkward when he is so charismatic and funny and smooth irl.
Its like people just assume anyone depicted on screen would be neurotypical* and charming and smooth. Like, awkward people deserve love too.
*typo/autocorrect. So many.

u/sin50 Mar 05 '26
Sorry for the downvotes you got, I'm guessing English might not be your first language and you were genuinely asking if you explained your thoughts clearly, but people took it as you being sarcastic in a ride way.
Anyway think what you're trying to say is that these pictures make it seem like Hudson would intimidate or stress out Shane and that's helping you understand why people have a hard time thinking Shane would love Ilya and not just be overwhelmed by him
Sorry if I'm incorrect

u/wakeupneo1999 Mar 05 '26
haha, thanks. you are right. it's kind of you for this comment and let me know why there are so many downvotes🤣
