As with all things Heated Rivalry, the interaction sent the fandom into a frenzy as followers tried to connect the dots and figure out how the 26-year-old breakout knows the successful filmmaker behind 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, Hedda, Candyman and The Marvels. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tConsider the dots officially connected: Storrie stars in a new branded short film, Look Behind You, directed by DaCosta for Verizon. The four-and-a-half-minute film plays like a scary movie thriller as it opens up with Storrie pulling up to a seemingly secluded cabin in the forest. He unlocks the door using Verizon\u2019s smart home security solutions. After settling in and lighting a fire, Storrie, clad in a pair of jeans and a white tank top, gets spooked time and time again by a series of shocks that suggest he\u2019s not alone.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tFirst, it\u2019s loud death metal that begins blasting from the stereo. Then, as he\u2019s making pasta while studying lines from a script (\u201cI spent all dinner trying to hate the way you laugh\u201d), a house alarm blares. The lights go out and a landline rings. Suddenly, a lamp turns on. \u201cI\u2019m not messing around,\u201d Storrie shouts while carrying a knife he took from the kitchen. Finally, a knock at the door.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tIf you don\u2019t want the ending spoiled, stop reading now and see the clip below for yourself.<\/p>\n<div class=\"jeg_video_container jeg_video_content\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Look Behind You | Connor Storrie | Verizon\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/NE_wniHPsJk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tStorrie then answers the door amid a sudden rainstorm to reveal a shadowy figure approaching in a raincoat. \u201cI knocked on the door. I looked in the windows. I almost gave up, man,\u201d the man says. \u201cAre you Connor S.?\u201d <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tTurns out the man is not a serial killer but a ride-share driver. Storrie realizes that the series of spooks he\u2019s been experiencing are his own fault due to \u201cbutt dials\u201d as they only occurred as he sat down in various spots around his house. As he comes to the conclusion, he happens to be standing in front of a mirror in his house and the camera pans down to his firm backside.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\t\u201cThe Best Butt. The Best Network. There\u2019s No Escape,\u201d reads the text on the screen.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tThe compliment won\u2019t come as a surprise to fans of Heated Rivalry as Storrie\u2019s nude backside figured prominently into the show\u2019s first episode. It became a phenomenon, and both he and co-star <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/t\/hudson-williams\/\" id=\"auto-tag_hudson-williams_1\" data-tag=\"hudson-williams\">Hudson Williams<\/a> were asked about their workout routines in various interviews with the latter frequently praising Storrie\u2019s backside as \u201cthe fattest butt I\u2019ve ever seen on a man.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\t\u201cI\u2019m sure just wants to stop talking about his beautiful cheeks,\u201d Williams told Men\u2019s Health. The new Verizon short film won\u2019t help to quiet the conversation but it will add another credit to the very booked-and-busy star\u2019s resume. Storrie, who rode the Heated Rivalry wave to host Saturday Night Live, is currently shooting Peaked for A24 and has a new episode of Criminal Minds on the horizon.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tStorrie is repped by CAA, Atlas Artists, the law firm Yorn Levine and Shelter PR for personal publicity. <\/p>\n<div class=\"post-content-image \/\/  \">\n<div class=\"c-lazy-image  \">\n<div class=\"lrv-a-crop-16x9\" style=\"padding-bottom:calc((2001\/3000)*100%);\">\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<img class=\"c-lazy-image__img lrv-u-background-color-grey-lightest lrv-u-width-100p lrv-u-display-block lrv-u-height-auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/wp-content\/themes\/vip\/pmc-hollywoodreporter-2021\/assets\/public\/lazyload-fallback.gif\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Connor-Hero-2.jpg?w=3000\" alt=\"\" data-lazy-srcset=\"\" data-lazy-sizes=\"\" height=\"2001\" width=\"3000\" decoding=\"async\"\/><\/p><\/div><\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tCourtesy of Verizon<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"post-content-image \/\/  \">\n<div class=\"c-lazy-image  \">\n<div class=\"lrv-a-crop-16x9\" style=\"padding-bottom:calc((2001\/3000)*100%);\">\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<img class=\"c-lazy-image__img lrv-u-background-color-grey-lightest lrv-u-width-100p lrv-u-display-block lrv-u-height-auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/wp-content\/themes\/vip\/pmc-hollywoodreporter-2021\/assets\/public\/lazyload-fallback.gif\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Connor-Hero-1.jpg?w=3000\" alt=\"\" data-lazy-srcset=\"\" data-lazy-sizes=\"\" height=\"2001\" width=\"3000\" decoding=\"async\"\/><\/p><\/div><\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tCourtesy of Verizon<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"post-content-image \/\/  \">\n<div class=\"c-lazy-image  \">\n<div class=\"lrv-a-crop-16x9\" style=\"padding-bottom:calc((2001\/3000)*100%);\">\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<img class=\"c-lazy-image__img lrv-u-background-color-grey-lightest lrv-u-width-100p lrv-u-display-block lrv-u-height-auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/wp-content\/themes\/vip\/pmc-hollywoodreporter-2021\/assets\/public\/lazyload-fallback.gif\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Connor-Hero-3.jpg?w=3000\" alt=\"\" data-lazy-srcset=\"\" data-lazy-sizes=\"\" height=\"2001\" width=\"3000\" decoding=\"async\"\/><\/p><\/div><\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tCourtesy of Verizon<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.hollywoodreporter.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Connor Storrie turned heads at the Vanity Fair Oscar party as he zipped down the silver carpet in tandem with Nia DaCosta.
