Matt Lanter on the Complicated TIMELESS Triangle in Season 2

Will they/won’t they couples on television can be incredible, frustrating, and intensely compelling. However, when a presumed-dead spouse gets thrown into the mix? That’s when things can get complicated.

In TIMELESS’ second season, Wyatt (Matt Lanter) was thrown when his long-dead wife Jessica (Tonya Glanz) popped up, throwing a wrench into his blossoming romance with Lucy (Abigail Spencer). For Lanter, playing the arc was a bit difficult—especially because fans were so upset about the bump in the Lyatt relationship.

“On Twitter, I’ve been getting hammered—or I should say Wyatt is getting hammered for the way he’s treating Lucy,” Lanter told reporters about the TIMELESS triangle in the video below. Lanter had more sympathy for his character, though: “I have to justify everything that he’s doing in order to do it and do it honestly…this is his wife we’re talking about. This is not a girl he went on a date with.”

Check out the video, as Lanter spoke more about the complexities of the TIMELESS triangle.

NBC has yet to make a decision about TIMELESS season 3.
