What Happened After Wednesday's Success?
Jenna Ortega, everyone's favorite Wednesday Addams, got super famous fast when Wednesday came out on Netflix! She went from a regular actor to a HUGE star! She got her first Emmy nomination, she even hosted Saturday Night Live. It's amazing. But it sounds like it took a minute for her to process it all!
Jenna Ortega and the Impact of Fame
- Jenna really wants you to know she's been working since she was little, but she didn't feel like she could actually speak up or be her own person, especially on movie sets. She'd just been doing what she was told, but that changed when she played Wednesday.
Wednesday Season 2 and Jenna's Independence
She found a whole new voice when playing Wednesday. But she's also been very vocal about wanting to control her own destiny when it comes to acting. Remember that whole "on-set" thing that was kind of a big deal? She told people about her time filming and how sometimes the writers were off, and how she decided to change lines and act 'unprofessionally'. Well, a few people are talking about that whole incident right now - it was actually kind of a big deal - she made people mad! It was definitely a hard time because she said those things during the whole Hollywood writers' strike, when there was a big discussion about who makes creative decisions on those shows! Even Jenna admits that maybe her comments were a bit rough around the edges.
What Can We Expect From Wednesday's Next Season?
But the important part: it looks like Jenna Ortega will be coming back as Wednesday Addams. Netflix has said it'll be back! The big thing? We still don't have the date yet!
Where's Jenna Going From Here?
- We are totally keeping our eyes open. But, with this super high level of instant fame, everyone will be looking for the next project she takes on, especially with her role as a total movie superstar! But for now, get ready to catch up on this totally original show that gives you chills and laughs - and if you haven’t checked out Jenna Ortega's past projects - go and see what she's got.
