Jenna Ortega, who plays the title character in Netflix’s upcoming Wednesday series, offers humorous advice to Emmy nominees. The 2022 Emmy Awards took place on Sunday, honoring the best in television. The night saw numerous winners, like Zendaya winning for Outstanding Lead Actress In A Drama Series or Ted Lasso taking home a statue for Outstanding Comedy Series. However, the morbidly monotone Wednesday had some words of discouragement to share with the nominees.
Tim Burton is directing Wednesday, which suits his macabre sensibilities, having directed films like Beetlejuice and Edward Scissorhands. Ortega stars as Wednesday Addams, taking the lead in her own series that sees her unraveling a mystery involving her parents while navigating the perils of Nevermore Academy following her expulsion from her previous school. The series also features a stellar cast with Ortega starring alongside Catherine Zeta-Jones, Luis Guzman, Christina Ricci, Gwendoline Christie, and Riki Lindhome.
