Jacob Tierney in Conversation: I’ll Believe in Anything and the Making of Heated Rivalry
ABOUT THIS EVENT
Jacob Tierney, creator of Heated Rivalry, joins us for a behind-the-scenes look at the making of his smash hit series.
Produced by Accent Aigu Entertainment and based on Rachel Reid’s bestselling Game Changers novels, Heated Rivalry has become one of television’s breakout sensations, bringing the unforgettable love story of hockey rivals Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov to the screen with emotional depth, wit, and remarkable care — proving that queer love stories can captivate audiences on a global scale.
Now series creator, writer, director, and executive producer Jacob Tierney joins us to discuss I’ll Believe in Anything: The Making of Heated Rivalry Season 1, an extraordinary behind-the-scenes look at how the acclaimed first season came together — reflecting on how he adapted the fiercely beloved books by balancing swoon-worthy romance with sharp humor and compelling drama. Featuring annotated scripts, production insights, and never-before-shared stories from the set, I’ll Believe in Anything offers fans an intimate look at every stage of the creative process.
In a conversation with Tierney, get a behind-the-scenes look at the making of a television phenomenon — and discover how Heated Rivalry changed the game.
All in-person tickets include a signed copy of the book.
