Wednesday star Jenna Ortega has revealed that she needed to change some of her character’s dialogue. Wednesday, the recent reboot of The Addams Family, sets itself apart by focusing on Wednesday’s journey as a student in Nevermore Academy, a school for outcasts.
Why Wednesday Addams Is Relatable
As much as Wednesday acts unlike like most teenagers, her attitude is still something that can make younger viewers to relate to her. Wednesday has many varied skills — many things that Ortega had to learn for Wednesday — including playing cello, speaking German, fencing, archery, and dancing. While they may seem very random, each gives a new opportunity for those with similar skills to reconsider their own similarities with Wednesday.
What’s Next For Wednesday Addams
While Netflix can occasionally be stingy about TV show renewals, another season is on the way — even if the official announcement is still to come. Wednesday’s showrunners have three to four seasons planned, meaning that they won’t even need to change continuity to pull off Wednesday season 2. The showrunners have also discussed potential spin-offs surrounding the entire Addams family, and Wednesday would have a place in them all. With the extreme success of Wednesday, Tim Burton’s Addams Family universe is on its way to growing tremendously, meaning that Wednesday Addams will be on screens for years to come.
