In a world where men wage wars and rage online, how can they learn to love? Heated Rivalry poses this question through the story of two professional hockey players, Ilya Rozanov (Connor Storrie) and Shane Hollander (Hudson Williams), who must overcome their fears, nationalities, and cultural differences to truly see each other’s hearts. ✨

For showing how we can confront our deepest fears and “go to the cottage,” #HeatedRivalry is a #PeabodyWinner. @hbomax

"When I started out on Broadway, 'Dreamgirls,' we lost half of our cast to AIDS."

Sheryl Lee Ralph—famous for her breakout role in the original Broadway production of 'Dreamgirls' and her ongoing portrayal of the no-nonsense kindergarten teacher on the sitcom 'Abbott Elementary'—champions another kind of teaching through her decades-long work as an activist, particularly raising awareness about HIV/AIDS.

Recently, in collaboration with the DIVA Foundation, the nonprofit she founded in 1990, Ralph executive-produced documentary special 'Living Proof' which highlights the experiences of Black women living with HIV in the South. Leading by example, Sheryl Lee Ralph is honored among TIME's 16 Women of the Year. Read her story and meet the honorees here: https://t.co/8O891bum4K

Paul Mescal and Josh O’Connor fall for each other against the backdrop of World War I in ‘The History of Sound.’ Gorgeous, devastating, and very much not built for a happy ending. #TheHistoryOfSound https://t.co/tJtyshhpbe

Pedro Pascal's special message to LGBTQIA+ community fans who are to see 'THE FANTASTIC FOUR: FIRST STEPS'

"It's an armour and it's a revelation. An identity, it's an absolute quest and fight to be yourself. And I think it is fighting to live in the world you want to live in it."
