Summary

Joining us in the studio, just before he jetted off to New Zealand to film the hotly anticipated new Evil Dead movie, is Hunter Doohan, the 31-year-old Arkansas-born actor that you undoubtedly know best as Tyler Galpin, the barista-turned-Tim Burton monster in Netflix smash Wednesday.

He settles in to chat season 2, discussing his character’s evolution — and how one even preps for the role of an orphaned murderous monster-cum-love interest — Lady Gaga joining the cast, his audition with Jenna Ortega (and working with her generally), baby oil application, and seaon 2’s dom-sub undertones.

We also get into his origin story: how he got to Hollywood, his big break, working with Bryan Cranston on the critically acclaimed Your Honor, finding love on the apps, and getting Cranston to officiate his wedding. Plus he talks about his experience being queer in Hollywood, his formative influences, his groundbreaking pro-tennis father and more.
