Hunter Doohan Talks ‘Wednesday' Season Two, Saint Laurent and Playing Murderers
Before he says anything further, Hunter Doohan issues an apology. 'I'm sorry it took three years,' the actor says of 'Wednesday,' the hit Netflix series he stars in, and its upcoming second season. The show became a sensation when it premiered in 2022, and at long last the new season will arrive in August — part one, at least. More from WWD Keke Palmer Brings Platform Power to 2025 Essence Festival, Pairing Saint Laurent Heels With Capri Trend Paris Trade Events Double Down on Creative Formats, Offering Emily Alyn Lind on Tackling Dark Themes in YA Adaptation 'We Were Liars' and Making Teens Feel Something In the meantime, the show's cast has become stars, including 31-year-old Doohan, who plays Tyler Galpin. Doohan is freshly back from Paris, where he attended Saint Laurent's men's show during fashion week. 'I've gotten to go to a few [fashion shows] since 'Wednesday' came out, which has been such an unexpected side effect of the whole whirlwind of 'Wednesday,' but yeah, it's still very new to me,' he says over a Zoom call from his Los Angeles home. 'I grew up in Arkansas, so 15-year-old me in Buckle jeans did not foresee sitting at these shows.' For the Saint Laurent show, he opted for a classic suiting separates look, which was the first one he tried on. 'It was the first one I tried on and I loved it, and then I tried on their leather pants and I just immediately was like, 'Oh, I like the first one,' but someone on my team was like, 'I don't know if you're a leather guy,'' he says. 'I kept thinking of the 'Devil Wears Prada' scene where they're like, 'Are you wearing the Chanel boots?'' Highlights of the show experience included seeing the new collection, of course, as well as reuniting with friends who came over from London — and meeting Cristin Milioti at the after party. 'I was obsessed,' he says. 'I love her.' Doohan heads out shortly to New Zealand to shoot the new 'Evil Dead' movie, where he'll be when 'Wednesday' finally makes its return — and when he can stop worrying about spoiling the show. 'I don't want to be the Tom Holland of 'Wednesday,'' he says, alluding to the 'Spider-Man' actor's revealing of spoilers during press appearances. 'I feel like a jerk sometimes in these interviews, I'm like, 'I can't say that. I can't say anything.'' He can say that the new season is 'bigger and better' than the first. While season one of 'Wednesday' saw Tyler initially as a barista at the local coffee shop who was later uncovered to be a hyde, season two has him more in the fantasy of it all. 'It was really fun to be in the Tim Burton world a bit more because I'm not pretending to be the nice boyfriend barista,' Doohan says. 'So this time I really felt like from the start I was living in the heightened genre of the world the whole time.' Doohan grew up in Fort Smith, Ark., and fell in love with acting, and theater specifically, when he auditioned for the school musical his sophomore year of high school. 'I never saw film and TV as an option growing up there, even though I loved it. It just truly never even crossed my mind as something I could even try to pursue, whereas theater felt realistic,' he says. 'We had our high school theater and our community theater.' Rather than pursue a degree in musical theater, he decided to try moving to L.A. and giving it a shot – and he's been there ever since. Beyond 'Wednesday' and 'Evil Dead Burn,' he'll be seen in an independent film called 'The Wilderness' this fall. After that, he's wondering if he should try his hand at some new roles. 'I think I need to maybe play a few less murderers,' he jokes. 'Maybe do a comedy.'

Hunter Doohan teases ‘Wednesday' season two after Saint Laurent appearance in Paris
Hunter Doohan is stepping back into the spotlight with the return of Netflix's hit series Wednesday, which premieres its highly anticipated second season this August. Known for his role as Tyler Galpin, Doohan has kept quiet about the plot but promises the new episodes are 'bigger and better.' 'I'm sorry it took three years,' he told WWD, acknowledging fans' long wait. Season one left Tyler revealed as a murderous hyde; in season two, he dives deeper into the show's gothic fantasy. 'This time I really felt like from the start I was living in the heightened genre of the world,' he said. Fresh off the runway circuit, Doohan recently attended Saint Laurent's Spring 2026 men's show in Paris. Though new to the fashion scene, the Arkansas native, who grew up wearing Buckle jeans, now embraces designer looks. He chose a sleek suiting separates outfit for the show, skipping leather pants after a humorous back-and-forth with his team. 'Someone said, 'I don't know if you're a leather guy,'' he joked. The event also brought unexpected highlights, including meeting actress Cristin Milioti. 'I was obsessed,' he said. Doohan's schedule remains packed. He'll soon fly to New Zealand to shoot the upcoming Evil Dead Burn film. Later this year, he's set to appear in The Wilderness, an indie project. Despite his growing list of roles, many dark and twisted, Doohan is eyeing lighter terrain. 'I think I need to maybe play a few less murderers,' he quipped. 'Maybe do a comedy.' From Fort Smith, Arkansas, to Netflix stardom and Paris Fashion Week, Doohan's rise is equal parts grit, charm, and unexpected style. And with season two of Wednesday around the corner, he's ready to thrill audiences again, spoiler-free.

EVIL DEAD BURN Cast Comes Together with Hunter Doohan, Luciane Buchanan, and Tandi Wright — GeekTyrant
Things are heating up for the next installment in the Evil Dead universe. The cast of Evil Dead Burn is coming together, and it's already looking promising. According to Deadline, Hunter Doohan, best known for playing Tyler in Netflix's Wednesday , has signed on to star. He's joined by Luciane Buchanan ( The Night Agent ) and Tandi Wright ( Pearl ), with all three actors set to bring some fresh blood to the Sam Raimi-produced horror project. They'll join previously announced cast member Souheila Yacoub in the film, which is being directed by Infested filmmaker Sébastien Vaniček. He co-wrote the script with Florent Bernard, continuing the collaborative horror streak they started with their 2023 creature feature. We don't know anything about the story, but Vaniček previously said: 'I told the studio that I wanted to make a nasty film, a film that hurts, from which you come away tested. I'm going to put all the horror I have inside, it will be cathartic, and if I haven't ruined my career and I can continue to make films behind it, I will move on to something other than horror!' He is looking to create a film that hits with force and sticks with audiences. He added: 'I want people to feel physically drained when they leave the theater, like they've been through an emotional and intense journey. The ambition remains the same as with Infested: to create a visceral, sensory experience that punches the audience in the gut.' As a fan, that's exactly what I want to hear when it comes to the bone-snapping, soul-swallowing, blood-drenched legacy. Evil Dead Burn will follow the success of Evil Dead Rise , directed by Lee Cronin, which revived the series in 2023 with a grittier, blood-soaked twist. And with another untitled Evil Dead film also on the way from Francis Galluppi, so the Deadites aren't done with us yet! Since Sam Raimi first unleashed the Necronomicon in 1981, The Evil Dead has evolved from a scrappy cabin-in-the-woods shocker into a multi-generational horror juggernaut. With this new lineup and a director hungry to leave a mark (or maybe a scar), Evil Dead Burn is probably going to be a crazy-ass horror movie.
