Christina Ricci once played Wednesday Addams. Now he will play “Wednesday” by Netflix

For now, it is not known who the actress will play – only that it will not be an older version of the heroine that she played in the 1990s. The title character of “Wednesday” is to be played by Jenna Ortega.

Eight episodes on Wednesday from Netflix

This will be the debut of Tim Burton (“Corpse Bride”, “Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street”, “Frankenweenie”, “Ed Wood”) on the small screen. – Tim like no other can beautifully talk about outsiders in the style of Edward Scissors, Lydia Deetz or Batman. I think Wednesday and her terrifying friends from the Nevermore Academy couldn’t have done better, writes Teddy Biaselli, director of Netflix’s youth and family series.

The eight-episode Netflix series is to tell the story of Wednesday’s student years. This is a detective and paranormal story about Wednesday studying at the far-from-normal Nevermore Academy. The protagonist tries to control her newly discovered psychic powers, stop the murderous forces terrorizing the area and solve the supernatural mystery of which her parents became a part 25 years ago. We will also see how Wednesday finds himself in the maze of relationships with other students who are very different and very unconventional.

Catherine Zeta-Jones will play Wednesday’s mother Morticia Addams, and Luis Guzmán will play her father Gomez. The creators of the series are Al Gough and Miles Millar. So far, the participation in the production has also been confirmed by Andrew Mittman (“The Addams Family”, “Alphas”), Kevin Miserocchi (from the Tee and Charles Addams Foundation), Kayla Alpert (“Code Black: Critical condition”, “Until dawn”), Jonathan Glickman of Glickmania (“Respect”, “The Addams Family 2”) and Gail Berman (“The Addams Family”, “Alphas”).
