At a Next on 2025 press event held in London yesterday, journalists were treated to an exciting preview of what’s in store for the streaming giant this year – including a tantalising Easter egg for Wednesday fans.
In the trailer titled ‘You’re not ready for what’s next’, we see a woman journeying through various show universes, such as Squid Game, Stranger Things and Cobra Kai.
At one point, the woman transforms into the character of Wednesday Addams (typically played by Jenna Ortega) and is seen trailing the disembodied hand known as Thing to a dungeon-like space, reports .

Here, she encounters her season 1 love interest Tyler Galpin (Hunter Doohan), who was unmasked as the monster Hyde in the season finale and subsequently captured.
The teaser trailer shows Wednesday laying eyes on a human-looking Tyler, who is shackled to a wall.
This strongly suggests the character’s comeback – and the likelihood of him and Wednesday meeting again, sparking speculation about a potential rekindling of their romance.
The first season’s love triangle involving Wednesday, Tyler and Xavier Thorpe (Percy Hynes White), who has since been written out of the show, left audiences split.

Several viewers remained unconvinced about Wednesday developing a romantic connection, with one individual voicing their disapproval on , writing: “The show gave no reason she should be interested in anything other than death.”
They suggested: “If they’re going to have Romance in the show they should just make it through the werewolf character or a different character more inclined to do so.”
Another added their voice to the critics, remarking: “The romance in season one was incredibly awkward and felt wrong for the character of Wednesday.”
They followed up by saying: “The show never gave me a convincing reason that she would be interested in either of those two boys.”
One fan jokingly chimed in: “Hopefully no love s**t this time. I am all for romance but it was sooooo forced in season 1.” (sic)
A fourth viewer shared their thoughts, commenting: “The only relationship I cared about was the one between her and Enid anyway.”
In contrast, some fans are holding out hope for Wednesday and Tyler’s reconciliation, proposing that it’s only appropriate for the Addams family member to be entangled with a monster.
