Fans of Heartstopper star Kit Connor were treated to some impressive new photos and video footage of the 19-year-old yesterday.
The actor has clearly been bulking up his physique, leaving many to wonder if he’s preparing for a superhero role.

Massiah posted a selection of photos from one of their sessions, and Connor posted a comment underneath saying, “thanks for the session man!!”
For anyone not satisfied with photos alone, Massiah also posted a 25-minute video to his YouTube channel demonstrating their workout together.
Watch below.
Massiah says he’s training Connor for his new movie role, leaving many to wonder what that might be.
Fellow Heartstopper star Joe Locke has already been cast in the upcoming WandaVision spinoff series Agatha: Coven of Chaos. It’s rumored he will play Wanda’s son, Billy, otherwise known as superhero Wiccan.
Now, some are wondering if Connor is to join the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Some have suggested he’d be perfect to play Hulkling, a shapeshifting Skrull and one of the more prominent members of the Young Avengers. Hulkling also happens to be the love interest of Wiccan.
Connor first came to attention playing a young Elton John in Rocketman. He and Locke have already filmed a second season of the Netflix show Heartstopper, with a third also commissioned. Whatever movie Connor’s preparing for, we’re already interested in seeing it.

Looks good! I like the ginger hair on his chest.

Looks like he started using. Do girls even care for muscle men?
dbmcvey
Using what? He always had a good build.
And why do you care if girls care for muscle men? The answer is, some do some don’t.

Really. The man on the left. I’d never be able to keep my hands off of him. He’s a total beefcake and I better stop now.
Miss Ginger……….not so much.

so he’s bulked up for a movie role. Not unusual for an average body to do 3 mths of intense training & dieting to eat a schedules starting at 3am. Hugh Jackman talks about his training routine for Wolverine on several occasions and soon after the filming goes back to his normal everyday routine and the resulting muscle loss.
