Is Jenna Ortega returning to the show?
Jenna Ortega will return as the titular character, Wednesday Addams, in the second season. “The most exciting thing is being able to revisit her,” the 22-year-old, who is a producer in the upcoming season, told Tudum.
“Wednesday Addams is one of the coolest characters of all time, so to have gotten the opportunity to play her once was incredible, and then to be able to slip into the costume and tone again, it’s so much fun,” Ortega went on.
“She runs circles around everyone that she has a conversation with, so to play someone who’s so much more intelligent than you will ever be, it’s quite funny and strange and enjoyable,” she added.
What will Wednesday Season 2 be about?
The upcoming season will expand The Addams Family storyline by introducing new characters like Morticia Addams’ mother, Hester Frump, who will be played by Joanna Lumley.
“Season 1 really focused on Wednesday, but you met the other characters but didn’t get to know them, and now we get to expand their storylines and expand the scope and breadth of the show,” creator Alfred Gough told the outlet.
