Connor Storrie may be winning over audiences now, but April 10 Director Michel K. Parandi says he saw its potential long before Passionate rivalry made him famous.
The director recently shared that he was impressed by Storrie from the moment they worked together on April 10.
In fact, he even remembers telling people that the young actor would one day become a movie star.
Storrie stars alongside Lilly Krug in the upcoming film, which follows twins Bax and April in a dark future world.
When April goes missing, Bax begins searching for her, but the journey slowly pushes him towards a breaking point.
Parandi shared that there was something about Storrie’s talent and on-screen presence that immediately stood out.
Even before the actor gained a large number of fans, the director believed he had what it took to become an A-list star.
This prediction now appears to be coming true.
Storrie’s role as Ilya Rozanov on Heated Rivalry brought him widespread attention and helped make him one of the most talked about young actors on television.
Parandi added that he is excited to see the actor getting the recognition he deserves and believes his recent success only confirms what he believed all along.
April 10 is set to open this year’s Raindance Film Festival in London before arriving in cinemas later in 2026.
As Storrie’s popularity continues to grow, even more attention is now focused on the film.
