CHARACTER HISTORY
Connor was born surrounded by opportunity, his parents wouldn’t allow anything less. They strived for perfection as a couple, his mother Reina chasing her dream of being a lawyer while his father Luis climbed the ranks of a motorcycle club’s hierarchy. Once Connor was born their plans shifted slightly, only until he was 7 and old enough to have some independence. It wasn’t too bad, he began flying through different sports to try and find the right fit — he was talented but the true talent was trying to get him to commit. Nothing stuck but he was busy so his parents were pleased, they didn’t even mind the occasional skip of class to smoke behind the bleachers.
He found a love for acting by accident, deciding to try out for a high school play on a dare. Connor didn’t expect to land a part let alone the lead, though he still remembers all of the season regulars being angry until he opened his mouth to speak. After that he was stuck, committed to the profession instead of needing to switch the following season. The winter play caught the attention of a director from Hollywood, something about the man being friends with the drama teacher from back home and he was tasked with a few months of online schooling to star in his first film — all he had to do was leave his girlfriend behind.
The dream was something he never imagined and with it dangling in front of his face Connor found it impossible to ignore. His father had never seen him so committed to something in his 17 years of life and told him he needed to focus all of his attention into this job to have the possibility to gain more. It was days of the same speech until he finally gave in, he ended his 6 month relationship with his girlfriend two weeks after sleeping with her for the first time, leaving her without a trace and no chance to give her a worthy explanation.
Two months working in Los Angeles and Connor was the lead in a romantic comedy, The Kissing Booth. He’s been back and forth between Hidehill and wherever his career takes him since graduation and hasn’t looked back.
HEADCANONS
His first real relationship was the brief one and he ended up really caring for her, but he left and completely ghosted her, still hasn’t explained himself to this day.
Lost his virginity to Heather Jones at 17 and took hers at a house party, didn’t tell her until months later that it was his first time too. They reconciled for a better experience together.
Starred as the love interest in a popular girl group’s music video when he was 25, he was the pizza delivery man and started dating one of the members. Their relationship lasted a year but ultimately ended after he went away to work on a project and she assumed the worst and made up that he was cheating on her — he didn’t. Still to this day she’s convinced he did thus resulting in numerous songs written by her about him.
Starring in a new upcoming film where he’s trying to protect his co-star and speak out on her behalf on all the sex scenes where she finds herself feeling uncomfortable.
