Wednesday fans have wondered whether the show was hinting at Wednesday and Tyler’s romantic reconciliation — and they aren’t the only ones.
During an exclusive interview with Us Weekly at the Los Angeles Haunted Hayride event on Friday, September 26, Isaac Ordonez weighed in on the chances of Wednesday (Jenna Ortega) and Tyler (Hunter Doohan) giving their relationship another try.
“I think they might be hinting at it,” Ordonez, who plays Pugsley on the hit Netflix series, noted. “I don’t know what [show creators] Alfred [Gough] and Miles [Millar] are cooking up but just from what I’ve seen — it could be possible.”
After having a front-row seat to Wednesday and Tyler’s charged moments in season 2, Ordonez saw what the fan fuss is all about, adding, “She fell in love with the monster within him. I think they sort of are [a good match.] I could see it.”
Will Wednesday and Tyler Get Back Together in Season 3? What Has Been Teased
Wednesday has danced around the idea of the main character getting back together with her ex ever since their split. Season 1 introduced Tyler and Wednesday as a couple before they turned into enemies with undeniable chemistry.
Season 2, which concluded in September, featured several moments that made many of Us question Wednesday’s claims she wasn’t interested in Tyler. Her decision to free Tyler in the finale instead of killing him off left the door wide open for the fan-favorite couple.
“To him, Tyler thought his whole life that his mom had just died, and then he finds out she died because she was a Hyde and that had been hidden from him. Then Laurel obviously comes in and grooms him and blames the outcasts for his mom’s death. Then he finally understands why his dad hates him because, for Tyler, he always wanted his dad’s love and didn’t understand why he treated him the way he did,” Doohan exclusively told Us in August about his character’s mindset. “So Wednesday felt like maybe the one person who — because she’s Wednesday Addams — wouldn’t be afraid of him and hate him for those parts of himself and might actually embrace it.”
Doohan didn’t rule out a romantic story line before returning to film season 3. “Can anyone be too dark for Wednesday Addams?” he quipped to Us at the time.

In addition to Wednesday and Tyler’s arcs, Wednesday has also started to invest more time in Ordonez’s character.
“I’m amazed to see how well received it is again, for the second season,” the actor told Us. “I’m super hyped [for season 3]. I don’t know what’s in store for Pugsley but I imagine they have quite a bit.”
Ordonez said it has been a blast filming with the cast.
“We’re all like a real family. We have that bond. And [director] Tim [Burton] is just — he’s Tim Burton. He’s such an amazing director. It’s so crazy. Sometimes I look at him, I see the passion in his eyes and I see the vision forming in his head,” he continued. “Off set he’s a super, super chill guy. But once he’s on set, he is focused. He wants his vision. He has an idea of how he wants everything.”
Wednesday has been renewed for season 3 and is currently streaming on Netflix.
