We thought the task was impossible, but Jenna Ortega rose to the challenge with flying colors. Nineteen years after the film’s theatrical release addams family values, The actress perfectly succeeded Christina Ricci in the role of Wednesday. In November 2022, the actress was in fact at the top WednesdayThe series, created by Alfred Gough and Miles Miller and partially directed by Tim Burton, focuses on the solo adventures of Pugsley’s sister.
On the program for this new original creation from Netflix? Cult lines, a unique heroine and a completely gothic atmosphere, when Wednesday enters a high school reserved for private students. And even if the episode was sorely lacking in the rest of the Addams Family, the series remained highly entertaining and enjoyable.
True or False, Season 2 Wednesday Will air in 2024?
The result of such success? Rated an average of 85% by people on Rotten Tomatoes, the series is the most watched series on Netflix in the world and has been renewed for Season 2! Good news, which unfortunately comes with a bad surprise. The information was confirmed this week: Wednesday and the continuation of Enid’s adventures will not begin filming until April 2024. In other words, This will not be announced before… early 2025, at the earliest. And we’re not sure a winter broadcast would be suitable for an environment like the series…
Yes, though the series is clearly more classic in its form Stranger Things And much less special effects and XXL decorations are needed a piece, Wednesday Unfortunately it will follow the same path as other series on the platform with endless production time (at least 2 1/2 years of waiting).
Certainly, last summer’s strike in Hollywood logically affected Jenna Ortega’s planning and film career (Saga Scream, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice) gives manufacturers a headache. However, when we know that the creators may start working on this new episode from the beginning of 2023, there is reason to be disappointed. Even more so when we see that, despite the recent strike which has severely affected them too, the usual range of TV channels (NCIS, Grey’s Anatomy, SWAT, Good Doctor…) are gearing up to return to our screens in the coming days, a few months after their previous season ended. All for the same number of episodes, or even a little more.
A good reminder that streaming platforms are still far from being able to retire TV channels…
