From The Bear to Abbott Elementary, actors have opened up about wanting more friendship than romance on their respective shows.
Ayo Edebiri weighed in after fans noticed potential sparks between Sydney and Carmy (Jeremy Allen White) in season 1.
“They got a lot of trauma on both sides. Like if even that [was explored] — I don’t think that window is open,” Edebiri exclusively told Us Weekly in January 2023. “But if it were, there would need to be like two seasons where it’s just them doing therapy individually before that would even be an option.”
Meanwhile, Jenna Ortega shut down the abundance of romance surrounding Wednesday Addams in her her Netflix series.
“I told [the writers] very early on that I didn’t want her to be in the middle of a love triangle. I’ve always been against the love triangle idea,” the Scream actress told ETalk in November 2022. “As far as the boys went, I had to accept it — but honestly, I’m going to fight this love triangle thing so hard. Because I don’t think Wednesday would ever be in a love triangle.”
