Revenge's Resident Good Guy


In the company of blackmailers, con artists, and people all-too-ready to fake their own deaths, Nick Wechsler's character Jack Porter on ABC's mega hit Revenge is a weekly respite from the spiteful storm. However, the seasoned TV actor (you may remember him as Kyle Valenti on the CW's cult favorite, Roswell) insists he's less charming—and a whole lot dirtier—than his Hamptons alter ego. The Albuquerque native talked to me about schoolyard fights, his Ladybugs moment, and being "a lot funnier" than the character he so convincingly portrays.

On Jack’s recent engagement: "It can’t work out well with Amanda. He’s so responsible and so good—too good for his own good. He’s trying to fall for her again, because she’s the mother of his child and it’s been proven. So he can’t back out now, and he can’t be absent. He can’t do that to the child."
  On guest starring on It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia: "There’s just something dirtier about this show. There’s something authentic. I watched them do their brilliant thing, and I was like, 'I want to be able to do that!' Being funny has always mattered a lot to me. It’s why I started acting—to make my friends laugh. I’m a lot funnier than Jack."
