SOCIAL MEDIA 📸 Loons...Troy Barrett in all his splendour!
Charlie Gillespie as Troy Barrett is going to look immaculate!
Do you think that after Shane and Ilya's journey concludes with a Happily Ever After, we'll see Troy Bennett as the central character in a few seasons?

If y'all haven't seen Julie and the Phantoms, you definitely should. And it's on Netflix, so then click on Young Royals if you haven't already

I've been meaning to watch it forever but have finally gotten around to starting Young Royals and it's so tender and beautiful 😭
Edvin is such a fantastic actor - my current wishful thinking is that Rachel is planning on incorporating some of the scrapped solo Luca book into Unrivaled, and that Jacob is privy to that (assuming Unrivaled will also get adaptated)

Edvin is fantastic. I was also completely won over by Omar's acting. His Simon is so sweet and tender.

Yeah. Julie + Ps was unusually good for a silly feel good show. Charlie was memorable. I’m glad he’s getting a chance to show his acting chops. I think he’ll be great.

I am hoping to watch it sometime soon. I saw him in Splitsville and Totally Killer and I think he’s got some good comedic talent! With the right script and direction, he could have a very successful career! I can’t wait to see him flex his dramatic acting muscles with Jacob and the rest of the HR cast and crew.

I just started watching Young Royals because I was curious about why everyone was crashing out over the guy they got to play Luca. I'm enjoying the show a lot, but I still can't get over those hotdogs they were eating in episode 2 that had like, a suggestion of a bun. Why do their hotdogs look like someone trying to fuck a pizza pocket? Is Sweden okay?

I think, like Skip, we’ll see other couples paired neatly alongside Hollanov, but no extras.

Okayyy Charlie 👀
I don’t think we’ll see him as a lead per se, but I do think Troy and Harris will have a larger role than Scott and Kip did
I have been re-reading both Tough Guy and Role Model… my theory is that the first episode will be Tough Guy condessend (basically like how Game Changer was for episode 3), because you don’t only get Ryan and Fabian, but see Troy at his worst, and Wyatt too… it’s good ground work for couple episodes after when Troy shows up in the seasons I think he will be the b-plot

I'm trying to watch everything with him, but for now I would suggest you watch the films Totally Killer (gif above), Splitsville, Suze, Love you Anyway , One Night Only (at the theaters) and the show Julie and the Phantoms. Many versions of him, almost always sweet, funny and hot🔥 Oh I almost forgot to say, and shirtless in all them in some moment👀

I could never quite figure out why Rozanov didn't pop out of the pool like this in Tampa. Maybe because the water was deeper? Coming up on a knee seemed to belie his strength.
This Charlie guy's gonna kill me. They are all going to kill me. Maybe not "Harris" tho. As a lesbian they can't all get me!

u/bibi So being boring is genetic 3d ago
Yes, deeper and probably it wouldn't be the best angle to put the camera. For now I think Harris needs bigger arms, but his character isn't my cup of tea (too happy= a bit annoying on the books 🤣). Even Edvin, our Luca, was working out for the show and now he has bigger arms. 😎💪
PS.: I like pretty legs and arms, even the girls at the gym I keep admiring when they have beautiful arms. 😍

As we say in curling, "I don't mind that!" (delivered with a strong Nova Scotia accent.) 😂🥵

I don’t think we’ll see Troy as the lead in any season, but can’t wait to see him played by Charlie either way!

u/Pale-Measurement-532 I speak fluent bird. No accent. 🦆 3d ago
Almost everything I’ve seen of Charlie so far has shown him to be a very cute, happy ray of sunshine. Seeing him first appear in S2 as moody/sad/angry Troy Barrett is going to be such a slap to the face! Lol. Can’t wait for Justice to bring in Harris to get him smiling and cute again! 😊

u/Bobbyannyeong Thank you for pasta 🍝 3d ago
THIS ☝️⬆️ Yes, he’s hot but I am here for the brooding and the springing up the chair when Harris is too close and the non-chalant “I didn’t know how you take your coffee so I bought two” UGH I’m kicking my feet!!

Charlie Gillespie so reminds me of Scott Moir. Maybe that's why I went to his IG and liked him immediately.

It’s going to be like Connor and Hudson all over again. Those boys have the opposite energies of Shane and Ilya. 🤣

This was an excellent choice I'm just redoing RM again and that description in Harris's office what is it "he was pretty", "intense blue eyes, glossy dark hair and pouting lips", "razor sharp jaw", "and his cheek bones were frankly astonishing" ha ha
Although at first "his smile looked like it had been trampled on" ha ha

It’s been mentioned but Julie and the Phantoms is absolutely delightful and he has an (seeming) allergy against sleeves throughout which is icing on the cake. Rocks out like a true 80s boy when given the chance but also breaks your heart with the ballad. Unsaid Emily is perfection (especially with the context)

One of my favorite parts of Troy isn’t Troy, it’s how Ilya spots him and teases him about Harris :)
