Hunter Doohan has officially set hearts racing once again with Netflix’s recently released teaser for the second season of the hit series Wednesday.
Returning as the charismatic yet dangerously unpredictable Tyler Galpin, Doohan has fans thirsting not only for more of his intriguing character but for his undeniably steamy screen presence.
In a moment that’s already gone viral, viewers got an eyeful of Tyler’s striking transformation from sweet barista to sinister Hyde, showcased in provocative images of Doohan shirtless and bound in chains—a scene that has unsurprisingly dominated social media chatter.
One particularly cheeky Instagram commenter joked, “Will you ever find your shirt? The real plot of season two,” while others affectionately dubbed him “the most handsome Hyde,” celebrating the darker yet undoubtedly hotter turn his character seems poised to take this season.
Off-camera, Doohan’s real life is equally intriguing and wonderfully romantic.
The openly queer actor is happily married to film producer and law student Fielder Jewett, proving real-life love can indeed be as charming as anything scripted.
Their modern fairy tale began on Tinder back in 2015, leading to a romantic proposal on New Year’s Eve 2020 and culminating in a gorgeous outdoor wedding in June 2022.
Doohan’s Your Honor co-star, the iconic Bryan Cranston, officiated the ceremony, making it a genuinely star-studded and heartwarming occasion. Doohan shared glimpses of the joyous day on Instagram, calling it “absolutely the best day of our lives.”
Jewett himself boasts impressive film credentials, having worked on productions like The Vanishing of Sidney Hall and Rosy.

Currently pursuing a law degree at Loyola Law School, Jewett and Doohan share more than just romance—they often bond over trivia nights, highlighting their playful and supportive relationship dynamic.
For Doohan, openness about his identity and relationship has resonated deeply with fans, particularly within the LGBTQ+ community.
He’s candidly shared how watching Will & Grace influenced his own journey, underlining the significance of representation both on and off-screen.
As excitement builds toward the season two premiere of Wednesday on August 6—with the second half arriving on September 3—fans are eager to witness Tyler’s darker evolution.
Meanwhile, Doohan’s authentic portrayal of love and identity continues to inspire and delight, both as a character and as himself.
Whether you’re tuning in for the chills and thrills or simply here for shirtless Hyde moments, one thing is clear: Hunter Doohan’s allure, both fictional and real, is here to stay.
