    1. Connor's performance is such an example of an actor becoming immersed in the character. When I see Connor as himself and see him as Ilya they don't look like the same person. They look like family, even twins maybe. But they look like two different people. It's like Connor left his body and inhabited a new one. It's very weird. The hair/make-up isnt extreme, there's nothing really done to him. But somehow he became someone else. I'm quite taken by his level of ability to do this. 😮

    2. Connor completely disappears into Ilya—it’s wild that a Texas native nailed the Russian accent so perfectly. The fact that he’s doing a spicy audio series with Hudson now is exactly what the fans needed while we wait for Season 2!
