As someone who doesn’t play Overwatch, who did the what now and what’s with McCree’s name???
The dude McCree was named after is part of an ongoing sexual harassment suit against Blizzard and Blizzard's changing his name instead of, you know, making their company less of a disgusting frathouse.
So now he's "Cole Cassidy.”
Also shoutout to this person for having the only correct take on this entire thing.
Zoey wasn’t sure what to even think. She was just scared out of her mind he’d leave her for what she truly is. And it wasn’t even her fault she’s like this.
But when she saw that gentle smile on Jesse’s face, she blinked slowly, even as he took her wolf face in his hands. “Jesse, I’m not—”
He stopped her. He didn’t say anything; just stood there and took in her beautiful face.
“… Yer not— Yer not scared?” she asked telepathically.
“No, hun. Yer beautiful. Why would I be scared o’ somethin’ like you?”
//Anyone remember that old Lifehouse from like, 2005?
Yeah.
Guess who had that on repeat?

Jesse McCree
Actor
Was a stripper in his early twenties working in a seedy strip club called Deadlock and was discovered by talent agent Gabriel Reyes.
Started out with minor but distinctive supporting roles in action-adventure shows on cable TV. You know, the kind where graphic violence, gore, nudity, sex, and drug use was totally necessary for the show’s narrative. Enjoy finding those delicious episodes where Jesse’s big dick was in full glorious view *wink wink*
Overcame the near-impossible transition from TV to the big screen when he turned 28 thanks to Gabriel’s patient guidance and hard selling to the major studios.
Landed his first leading role in a tentpole sci-fi/western blockbuster production by S76 Films called “High Noon” where he played a sharpshooting space cowboy with a cybernetic left arm.
Made the Hollywood and global celebrity A-list when his subsequent summer release films became certified box office winners. Also, you can expect to find any red carpet world premiere of Jesse’s movies filled to bursting with hundreds of hysterical screaming fans all clamoring to get precious photo-ops with him. And it doesn’t need to be said that a large majority of his fan base happens to be women and gay men because hello, have you seen him?!
With a name like Jesse McCree, his rugged good looks, and his undeniably alluring charm, he was obviously destined to be a major international film star with a massive fan following. It helped that Jesse is quite active on social media and always makes an effort to constantly thank all his fans for their loyalty and unwavering support via his goofy selfies and short video clips.
He definitely became a global household name when he landed that iconic perfume ad campaign for Dolce & Gabbana where he wore bleach-blonde hair that really divided his rabid fan base nothing but tight red swimming trunks that definitively proved McCree was indeed carrying a massive weapon of sexual destruction.
Oh, and there was also that deliciously sinful and borderline controversial Calvin Klein commercial where McCree was dancing (man, his stripping background really helped) to seductive music by world-renowned musician, DJ, and film composer Lúcio CDS, clad only in denim jeans, and removed it at the end to reveal that he went commando underneath and the audience got an uncensored glimpse of his naked bubble butt.
Talked out of joining the DC Extended Universe by Gabriel and pushed him instead to join the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Needless to say, the decision proved to be a highly successful one.
Decided to diversify his acting range and insisted on auditioning for arthouse and indie film projects by the time he was 37 as he was sick and tired of hearing all of the passive-aggressive comments and cutting remarks from film critics (most notably from Moira O’Deorain) and his fellow peers in the industry (cough*Amélie Lacroix*cough) that he doesn’t have what it takes to be a serious dramatic actor because of his extensive blockbuster movie repertoire. That, and he agreed with Gabriel’s sage advice that he shouldn’t turn into one of those aging movie stars who still do paycheck roles in action movies as a desperate attempt to remain relevant. You know which ones he’s referring to.
Earned the game-changing role of a lifetime by starring in an indie drama written by Hanzo Shimada where McCree played a closeted gay amputee military veteran suffering from PTSD after winning an extensive audition process where he was up against many other serious and big-name dramatic actors.
McCree’s heart swooned when he read the script for the film that would change his career path forever and totally made a complete yet adorable fool of himself fell instantly in love when he met the man who wrote such a powerful screenplay.
Jesse made the conscious decision to portray his character without his natural Southern accent and went as far as undergoing intensive lessons with a dialect coach to ensure that he would sound completely different with the role that Hanzo had beautifully written.
An incurable romantic who is prone to grand gestures, McCree publicly declared his love for Hanzo in his speech that went insanely viral when he took the stage at the Dolby Theatre to accept his Academy Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role. That, and he was quite possibly the very first Oscar winner to receive the award wearing a traditional tuxedo accessorized with—of all things—a beat-up cowboy hat and an oversized gold belt buckle embossed with the acronym “BAMF”, both of which he kept and saved from his days as a Deadlock stripper.
Secretly gets pleased every time trailers for his films after his first Oscar win now advertise him as “Academy Award winner Jesse McCree”, although he takes careful measures not to let his enthusiasm about this fact show too much and tries to pass it off as no big deal.
Hanzo Shimada
Screenwriter
Came from a prestigious and high-profile entertainment dynasty from Japan where his father, Sojiro Shimada, is a wealthy and influential film distribution mogul.
Defied his father’s wishes when he refused to take over the reins of the family business and decided to become a screenwriter.
Forced into exile and blacklisted by his own family within the Japanese entertainment industry because of his career decision, Hanzo moved to the United States where he reunited with his younger brother Genji Shimada, who now lives and works in Los Angeles as a highly popular comedian.
Took an intensive screenwriting course in UCLA where he graduated with an MFA degree at the top of his class.
His very first dramatic screenplay—the year after he graduated from UCLA—about two estranged brothers who reunite following the death of their imperious and domineering father quickly made the Hollywood Black List, an annual industry survey of the most well-liked unproduced film scripts.
Landed his first major writing job on Netflix as part of a core team of writers for a big-budget, fully-animated, and totally R-rated adaptation of Saga by Brian K. Vaughan and Fiona Staples, of which Hanzo is a hardcore fan of the original source material.
Won his first Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Writing for a Drama Series thanks to the season one finale episode of Saga, where Hanzo took sole writing credit and coincidentally, also making Emmy history as the first win in this category going to an animated TV series.
While working on his Netflix gig, Hanzo developed a film screenplay about a dysfunctional family of misfits and social outcasts that caught the attention of hotshot producer Jack Morrison and acclaimed director Ana Amari.
His first official feature film credit garnered massive attention and critical praise from the international press when the finished product produced by Jack and directed by Ana debuted at the Cannes Film Festival and Hanzo took home the Prix du Scénario (Best Screenplay Award).
Was quickly besieged with collaboration offers from all the top directors around the world to write the screenplay for their upcoming film projects after his big splash at Cannes, but made the conscious decision to write his next screenplay while continuing his well-paying Netflix gig.
Churned out his second film screenplay that would turn out to be the life-changing catalyst which would eventually lead him to cross paths with one Jesse McCree, whose career he’s been secretly following since the latter’s meteoric ascent into the Hollywood A-List.
Was featured in an in-depth profile piece on Vanity Fair’s annual Hollywood Issue where Hanzo talked about his passion for writing, his creative process, his enduring fascination with nerd and geek culture, his hidden talent of archery and martial arts, as well as a candid discussion on his severed ties with his family legacy back in Japan.
Collaborated once again with Jack and Ana to film his second screenplay with Jesse in the lead role where one thing led to another with McCree during the production process and whoops, would you look at that? Salacious rumors between Jesse and Hanzo swirling about in the entertainment news industry thanks to an alleged leaked sex tape hazy paparazzi photos from TMZ.
Won the Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay the same night Jesse won for Best Actor in a Leading Role, although Hanzo’s speech was more formal and restrained yet still gave off blatant overtures as to his relationship with a certain A-List movie star. He did, however, remember to give Genji a huge shoutout that smug green-haired little shit during his acceptance speech and also gave out what is perhaps the classiest fuck-you to his father as he proudly clutched the Oscar statuette in his hands.
“McHanzo” becomes the newly anointed Hollywood power couple post-Oscar season—complete with virally trending hashtag—and Hanzo finds it adorable that his boyfriend tries so hard not to make a big deal out of it whenever he sees posters and trailers of his films now billing him as “Academy Award winner Jesse McCree”.
Gabriel Reyes
Talent agent
Born and raised in Los Angeles, he had previously worked as a security specialist for high-profile celebrity clients before discovering that he had an uncanny knack for spotting talents that he considered as “diamonds in the rough”.
Quit his job in security and decided to open his own talent agency—Blackwatch Artist Management (BAM)—where he was responsible for discovering many successful and highly talented people over the years, ranging from actors and models to musicians and athletes.
As his client base steadily grew, so too did Gabriel’s reputation rise in the industry, to the point where he has become the go-to person for every rising or established celebrity to handle their personal and professional affairs.
Very selective with the people he chooses to sign onto his agency, as Gabriel isn’t swayed with a perfect body or pretty face, but judges a person based primarily on the strength of their talents, their personality, and their capacity to handle the pressures of celebrity life.
Was offered several times in the past by talent scouts and casting directors to try his hand at acting because of his smoldering good looks and intense physical presence, but Gabriel turned them all down since he absolutely hated the idea of living his most of his life in front of the cameras.
Another strong reason why he prefers to have a Hollywood career behind the scenes is because he has a huge roster of talents to deal with, and some of them have egos and diva attitudes that he’s more than happy to cut down to size if they don’t get their shit together.
Earned the industry nickname as “The Reaper” because he has a vicious reputation of dropping talents from his agency if they so much as make unforgivable public faux pas such as showing support for undesirable presidential candidates, making a humiliating spectacle of themselves by getting wasted in nightclubs and footage of them vomiting in a back alley gets viral on the internet, or worse: sex scandals or crimes with undeniable evidence against the accused celebrity.
His status as The Reaper is so feared that once a former talent of Gabriel Reyes is dropped, that person can kiss their career in Hollywood goodbye since Gabriel’s dismissal is considered an automatic industry blacklist and no other talent agency—West and East Coast—will take them on.
And oh yes, God help those producers, directors, and casting agents who so much as try to create sleazy casting couch situations for a prized talent managed by Gabriel Reyes. No one fucks with those under the watchful eye of The Reaper and gets away with it.
Considers his discovery of Jesse McCree as his proudest professional achievement, even though he doesn’t say it out loud to the man in question and the circumstances as to how he discovered McCree is rather salacious to those who don’t know the real story.
The Reaper is never seen in public without his trusty black beanie or knit cap. No matter the occasion, whether he is a casual meeting with industry executives in his office or making formal red carpet appearances to show support for his talents, Gabriel Reyes will always be seen wearing his beanie covering his head.
Has a long and frustratingly complicated history—both professional and romantic—with Jack Morrison that the entertainment news media often revisits their “are-they-or-aren’t-they?” relationship whenever there is a quiet entertainment news cycle without any sex scandal, pregnancy/birth announcement, engagement revelation, public/secret wedding exclusives, or major celebrity couple breakup in sight.
Likes to take his coffee black with extra shots of espresso because he’s so edgy and will have no compunction chewing out his assistants if his caffeine fix contains so much as a hint of cream, sugar, or anything that might ruin the sharp bitterness he really craves.
Once had a huge falling out with Jack for reasons that will forever remain mysteriously undisclosed to the public and the industry at large that he absolutely refused to have any of his high-profile and bankable talents—Jesse included—to star in any project produced or financed by Morrison. It is generally believed and accepted by everyone that they were back in good terms when Jesse snagged the award-winning lead role in the indie drama film written by Hanzo Shimada and directed by Ana Amari.
Jack Morrison
Film producer
Originally from rural Indiana but moved to Los Angeles when he turned 19 in the hopes of breaking into Hollywood as an actor.
Worked several jobs upon arriving in L.A.—waiter, dishwasher, bike messenger, dog walker, and of course, barista/bartender—while unsuccessfully trying out for open castings and auditions, and it was also around this time that Jack met Gabriel Reyes, who was around the same age as him and was, at the time, working as a junior assistant at a security firm.
Ended up being roommates with Gabriel not long after their initial encounter where the two men eventually consummated their relationship. Despite their intense and powerful attraction to one another, Jack’s ambitions to become a famous movie star clashed terribly with Gabriel’s desire to live a more private life and work behind the scenes.
Got his big break when he was discovered by legendary casting director Winston—yes, mononymous style like Madonna because he’s fucking amazing like that—when Jack was spotted by the intimidating-looking yet friendly agent while delivering a package to his office. Needless to say, when Jack told Gabriel the good news, it didn’t end so well with the two and Jack bitterly moved out of Gabriel’s apartment.
With his All-American movie star good looks and fantastic physique—like have you seen those stunning blue eyes, that perfect blond hair, and his amazing bone structure?!—Jack’s gradual rise to stardom was greeted with critical praise from audiences and industry pundits as he was able to showcase an incredible versatile range with his acting as he starred in literally everything from uproarious whip-smart comedies (”Too Much Future”) and unnerving psychological horror flicks (”Black Harvest”) to crowd-pleasing popcorn summer blockbusters (”Strike Commander”) and gut-wrenching film-festival-worthy indie dramas (”Dancing in Nowhere”).
Despite the overwhelming fame and fortune Jack amassed over the years, his love for Gabriel never faded and he often crossed paths with him when Gabriel ultimately found his true calling as a powerful talent agent. Needless to say, the two men eventually found themselves in a twisted, years-long, on-and-off relationship complicated by the fact that Jack never formally came out to the public with his sexuality.
His transition from actor to producer was because of a near fatal accident when Jack experienced a car crash during his mid-40s that left scars on his handsome face. Using the harrowing tragedy as a wake-up call, Jack made the conscious decision to switch careers and started his own production company called S76 Films—a reference to one of his most famous characters that he portrayed called Soldier: 76.
Since he was smart to save and invest all the money he earned from his movies, Jack was able to recover quickly from the accident and had more than enough resources to fund his new job as a film producer. However, he chose not to undergo cosmetic surgery and decided to keep his facial scars as a reminder to always keep himself grounded in a ruthless business that only favors everything shiny and new.
His previous success as an actor also translated to his new role in the business as a producer, and Jack was hailed as one of Hollywood’s greatest comeback stories. With a keen eye for spotting well-written scripts and pairing them with the right directors, Jack’s stellar reputation as a producer made him a valuable commodity for everyone who wanted their quality passion projects realized.
Even before his unfortunate accident, Jack had already took to the habit of wearing shades or sunglasses for his public appearances—his signature favorite being the L’Incognito by Maison Martin Margiela where he owns several vintage pairs—for the reason that he really hates being blinded by camera flashes. Thus, there is never a photo of Jack in public where his piercing blue eyes can be seen.
Absolutely detests drinking his coffee without any cream and sugar mixed in, preferably in copious amounts. Jack’s coterie of assistants are fully trained to memorize his exact coffee order the way he likes it or else he gets into these scary rages that could rival that of Gabriel Reyes on a bad day.
Behind closed doors, he finally reconciled with Gabriel when Jesse McCree headlined the film project written by Hanzo Shimada and directed by Ana Amari. Of course, the rest of the world doesn’t need to know about that since the Great Hollywood Ballad of Jack and Gabe was absolutely none of their fucking business.
Oh, and it helped that Jack was more than happy to oblige Gabriel when he suggested what he was going to do with Jack’s Academy Award for Best Picture. Spoiler alert: it’s exactly what you think it is.
Author’s Notes:
Hey, guys! I’ve been quietly lurking around in the Overwatch fandom for a long while now and this is my first attempt at sharing some of my headcanons for two of my favorite OW ships, McHanzo and Reaper76. TBH, I don’t yet have the guts to really flesh out this particular idea into a full-length multi-chapter fic of my own, but if any interested writer in the fandom out there finds/reads this and wants to make it happen, then by all means, use this as a prompt and I give you my full blessing and support, as well as my beta/editing services!
I actually also made ideas for the other characters in Overwatch based on this Hollywood!AU idea I envisioned, but I thought it would be too long to post everything in one text post. However, if anyone is interested in knowing what the other OW characters do in this alternate universe (i.e. the professions/personal tidbits of Angela Ziegler, Genji Shimada, Lena Oxton, Reinhardt Wilhelm, etc.), then don’t hesitate to send me an ask and I’ll post them here for you guys to check out! Also: if you want to know more about what life is like for Hollywood!AU McHanzo and Reaper76 (i.e. who cooks, who pays for dinner, who’s the big spoon/little spoon, etc.), then feel free to send those asks to me as well!
Hope you guys enjoyed this one, and cheers! :)
A type? I don’t have a type. What the hell are you talking about?
*nervous sweating*
I absolutely adore cowboys so of course I love McCree (also sorry for my hiatus but now its summer and I’m free!!)
drinking man teary eyes
It didn’t turn out the way I planned but, seriously..it never does...
An upcoming McHanzo Piece
Finished Young Mchanzo in a field. :)
I finished it!💪 I try to play McCree, but I’m not good at it :“”“”
Can we get McCree and Reaper with an s/o who is THICC-- like...jessica rabbit type thicc?
((I hope this is good enough))
MCCREE: When he first saw you looked you up and down and walked up too you, he found your thickness to be attractive tbh. He would then procced to flirt with you. If someone were to say somthing bad about your thickness like "you're to thicc" he would see if you would say somthing back or the person would leave you alone after that. If they keep talking, and you didn't do anything he would intervene. All and all he loves it.
REAPER: Honestly he didn't think much of it at first. But the more you stuck around the more he began to be be attracted to you. Once he looked at you and thought about how sexy your thickness was and everything else. If someone said something about being to thicc or somthing along those lines he would instantly become defensive. He would use passive aggressive threats but I'm sore you could calm him down.
