Hunter Doohan of Wednesday/The Wilderness

This week, Tommy is joined by actor Hunter Doohan who you know and love from his role as Tyler, aka the Hyde, in Wednesday on Netflix. The series is one of Netflix’s biggest hits of all time and for good reason. Season 2, Part 2 is out right now and Hunter is taking us on a journey with his brilliantly intense, multi-layered and creepy performance. Hunter also has a powerful film coming out on October 17th called The Wilderness. In The Wilderness, a group of troubled teenage boys are kidnapped from their homes and taken deep into the unforgiving Utah desert, where they are forced into a brutal and secretive Wilderness Therapy program. And right now he is filming the highly anticipated Evil Dead Burn. Today (in this spoiler-filled conversation), Hunter opens up about what it felt like to finally return back to playing Tyler, what some of the wildest things have been that he’s gotten to sink his teeth into in this role, if he thinks Tyler is in love with Wednesday, what transforming into the Hyde on set is really like, his favorite moments this season with Jenna and the rest of the cast, where he wants Tyler’s story to go in Season 3, if he reads the fan theories and Reddit threads, the personal reasons why he wanted to do a film like The Wilderness, why he felt nervous to do it, what filming the new Evil Dead Burn has been like, how he would love to be a part of Overcompensating Season 2, how Jonathan Bailey is a big inspiration to him, why he sometimes is hesitant to share his personal life, why he cautions people to not believe everything that you see online, and so much more.
