Though they haven’t had much of a chance to build a relationship so far on Revenge, it looks like there may be a future romance between Emily and Jack.
Nick Wechsler, who plays Jack Porter on Revenge, hinted to Entertainment Weekly that there might be a chance for Jack and Emily to get together in the future. That’s pretty complicated, considering that Jack is engaged to Amanda and appears to be a happy father, but maybe he’ll be devastated to the point of a break up when he finally learns the truth of Amanda’s identity.
Last season on Revenge, we got a little hint of the Jack and Emily romance, which has been coveted by the two of them since childhood (even though Jack thinks he’s currently dating his childhood sweetheart). Wechsler thinks that the Emily-Jack romance is one of the main drives of the show.
“I think that’s what she and I are supposed to have…a [relationship] where circumstances are such where we can’t be together now. But I think we’re meant to always root for them. I think the fates may conspire to give them opportunity again.”
Perhaps they will, but Emily will have to work her way out of two relationships to get there. Now that Emily is pretending to fall for Daniel again, and her real relationship with Aiden is getting shaky, Emily’s love life is anything but simple.
Wechsler jokingly notes that he’s not sure when the opportunity will present itself for Emily and Jack, and it will probably just get more complicated before it gets clearer.
“That’s my guess, but who the hell knows? It could always go some other way. She could always find a fourth guy.”
