Taping for season 3 of Revenge has yet to begin but Nick Wechsler already revealed details about his character Jack Porter, his efforts to get revenge against the Grayson family and a possible romance with Emily Thorne.

The actor spoke to TV Fanatic earlier in June at the ATX Television Festival in Austin, Texas, talking about what is to come when the ABC show returns in the fall. Wechsler said going into season 3 he has high hopes for Jack beginning a relationship with Emily now that he knows she is the real Amanda Clarke, his childhood sweetheart. Asked about when Jack stands "mentally" between his brother's death and Emily's big identity reveal, Wechsler said the following:

"I would like for him to believe her. I would like for him to...basically, he has to go after Conrad Grayson now...but for him to maybe finally accept Emily, through seeing what it's done to Jack...this might actually be more interesting, if it took seeing Jack go down this dark revenge road to make her rethink her own revenge."

Though Jack and Emily may team up to get revenge against the Grayons, he will "resent her" for lying to him about her identity. Wechsler said that much as Emily's reveal means that she is the girl he is in love with, he will also feel like telling Emily "I'm also hurt that you've been lying and that you set up a sequence of events that led to me losing someone I thought was you, I thought was the love of my life.' "

"He's going to be upset with her but at the same time [the situation] has the potential to put him in her shoes," Wechsler added. "So it's like, wow, the reason he comes around to forgiving her .. He's going to have to start lying to people to get some of this information out to try to take [the Graysons] down."

Emily's lying and scheming is "both the thing that's going to push her away, and the thing that's probably ultimately going to make him forgive her."
