Right under our noses, @francoisarnaud has been steadily carving out a place in indie cinema and hit television for almost 20 years. Now, after setting pulses racing as ice-hockey star Scott Hunter on the indomitable @heatedrivalrycrave, the French-Canadian actor stands on the cusp of becoming one of Hollywood’s most sought-after names. Covering our Spring/Summer 2026 issue, in conversation with new friend and Industry icon @mmyhala, he reflects on emerging from the rink – unpacking career highs, creative fantasies, and the through-lines between himself and his characters. It’s a lot to get into for their 9am call time, but they’re both used to taxing schedules these days, and Myha’la proves a consummate journalist. Head to manabouttown.tv to read the interview and pre-order the issue now! François wears vintage jacket @whatgoesaroundnyc and trousers @saltmurphy on the digital cover.
