How Jenna Ortega Prepared to Play Wednesday Addams 

We're excited to announce that The WatchMojo Game (wmojo.com/game) is here and available now on Amazon! Canada and UK now in stock! wmojo.com/game_canada wmojo.com/game_uk

Jenna Ortega did an impressive job as the 15/16-year old Wednesday Addams. Let’s hope Tim Burton and the others are gonna do 3 more seasons in the future.

I find it hysterical that in "Stuck in the Middle", Jenna's character compared herself to Wednesday, being the middle child. Now, she actually IS Wednesday!

I love how far Jenna Ortena has come since she was the main star on Disney Channel's Stuck in the middle. She is a queen.

Jenna Ortega is truly one of the big stars in the realm of horror movies and shows. She’s got that versatility that really makes her stand out from all the rest.

Tim Burton is a genesis and its going to be sad to see him go. Also Jenna Ortega is the best modern Wednesday Addams to date. She has indeed become Wednesday Addams for real on the show and her hard work has indeed pay off in so many ways. She has a very bright future a head of her for sure. I wish her good luck

My personal opinion I think she did a phenomenal job. Because I'm so used to growing up with the original Wednesday Addams which was Christina Christina Ricci. So her so hands down great job.

Wednesday’s Raven ball dance was absolute joy! Her unique creepy but wacky moves were both hilarious and nothing short of brilliance. She has put her unique stamp on her role as Wednesday in both humour, sniper quick and to the point comebacks and unblinking deathstares. I am loving seeing this new brought up to date Wednesday.

Single-handedly carried the series, her deadpan delivery and thinly veiled threats to everyone were amazing

I love Jenna as Wednesday! She is amazing! 🖤🖤

Hearing "Paint It Black" on the cello is awesome!

She is absolutely brilliant ❤

You know this one feels like a breath of a dark fresh air to the franchise as a whole, because to me at least everytime I see the Addams Fam the older ones, i dont really get it nor have the will to check it because of its weirdness if you will, but with this one they charm you just enough to check it out and understand its weirdness, hopefully its gets more love soon!!

I just saw Wednesday over the last couple of days. She played the role so well and I hope they come out with more.

I LOVE HER AS Wednesday and OMG she dose it so well and AHHhhhhhhhhhh she made me proud

You couldn't find a more perfect Wednesday than Jenna Ortega.

Her Wednesday was simply spectacular! The show is fantastic, I really hope there's a second season!

Millions of fans really, REALLY 🖤 Wednesday Addams dance scene.

Tim Burton chose well, as he always does. From her dedication to learning different activities to her lack of expression, Jenna Ortega's performance was so convincing that it did not feel like we were watching her play Wednesday Addams, it felt like she was Wednesday Addams

I love this series

I truly love Jenna Ortega as Wednesday! She is now my one and only Wednesday Addams! I thought she did an excellent job showing emotion without showing emotion, if you know what I mean. They better make a Season 2!

Jenna deserves many accolades. Many. She’s incredible.

Jenna Ortega is jus absolutely fantastic and fun

Can't wait for season 2

She also Played Isabel on Disney's Elena Of Avalor

This series as well as this young brilliant actress will be up for (and win) awards in the near future! She is mesmerizing as Wednesday and how prepared she made herself is a tribute to her devotion to perfection. Well done and I cannot wait for more from Jenna Ortega!

Jenna’s performance as Wednesday Addams, was wonderful 👏👏👏👏👏👏

Jenna is the REAL DEAL! Clearly, she's driven, she wants to be prepared, she's willing to learn new skills, and she takes the part - the series SERIOUSLY. I am extremely impressed with her commitment, which in itself is a HUGE reward for her career, it bodes well for all of her colleagues and for the series. All of the attention that 'WEDNESDAY' has created, is well deserved! I expect that as Jenna works to make her role REAL, this commitment also impacts and drives OTHERS. I hope that Mr. T. Burton will embrace ALL of the actors, and respect the great commitment of all of the support staff, writers, wardrobe - everyone. Mr. Burton has created a great team: it works: they work: The WEDNESDAY series could have a long life, if - Mr. Burton is allowed to maintain his team and the direction. Really now, Jenna is the lead, but her co-supporting actors - they work so well together. Wonderful!

Jenna Ortega is truly talented as Wednesday Addams! I love her dance at the Rave'N Dance. 🖤🦇

Toll, dass sie Deutsch spricht. She's an amazing actress

She did an excellent job.

LOOOOOVE!

Jenna is amazing as Wednesday

She fits perfectly with the role

I loved her in this! Has season 2 been started yet?

She's such a sweetheart

Jenna didn't need to do much acting in Wednesday because those stunning eyes did pretty much all of it.😍

Jenna Ortega is a good actress.

Cool

I’m going to have to check this out. She sounds like a great Wednesday.

Thought she was great,loved her as Wednesday.❤

Loved this series!

She is excellent

I LOVE IT!

She was really good

I actually like the series

Brava!!!

I’m just finishing the series 😂

Ooooooh I really wanna see this!!!! When does this come out? Is it already out?

Jenna’s awesome as Wednesday.

finished the series in one seating..can't wait for season 2

I m so happy to see the new show

I wonder if she prepared for the role by acting that’ll be a crazy guess

5:10 did... did she just blink?

She made it work. Well done.

A polite correction: Charles Addams never intended to create the Addams as a latino family... It wasnt until the TV series that came out in the 60s that the director decided to give Gomez a Castilian (this is from Spain, Europe) background 😉

❤

I think she is super pretty 🔪🤩🤩🤩

WHEN YOU LOOK BACK ON TIME THESE ARE CLASSICS.......

Did they get to dub themselves in the Spanish language track for the series ?

She has a future as a choreographer

She's incredibly photogenic

Dude, it's pretty easy to work out how she prepared lol she spent a season with Joe Goldberg and he turned her dark as 💩 🤣🤣🤣

1k like let's gooo

good video

Tyler always sounds confused

Jenna Ortega did a phenomenal job as Wednesday she was a great pick. The only ones I think missed their mark were the actors who played her parents; both of them were missed cast.

janna is a very attractive young woman

you are just like Wednesday

How do I become more of a Wednesday Addams personality? I’m a boy btw and a bit of a goth.

Как называется песня ?

Nice

is this avalable on netflix?

I have never seen such weight since Jennifer Lawrence carried the first Hunger Games movie alone! Everyone disappears and all eyes were on Jenna as Wednesday and not really on Wednesday.

I never liked any of the Addams' kids at all. I watched the old Adam's because of cousin it, thing, uncle fester and above all because I had a big crush on Morticia, she was the main reason for me watching the Adam's family. I was not so sure about watching any series at all, I watched I think 2 moves of the Addams not because I wanted but because I was invited and as a courtesy I did not say no, but gave it a shot and I did not like them, I was bored (yawn). But I saw the dance clip in tik tok by many people, and I kind of like the moves, then I realized it was about Wednesday dance, then I saw the clip for the Netflix series of Wednesday dance, and even though tik tok did not have the original song played in the Wednesday series, I like it, and I simply loved the short clip. I like that this young actress Jenna brought a new fresh look to this character of Wednesday, the dance was sort of sexy and provocative but expressive, in the way that I would think "knowing Wednesday from the original Addams, and also from the movies, that Jenna brought in the dance an expression of what a Wednesday teen would be like. I simply loved the clip, so I went to Netflix, and watched the first episode, I like how it started, and knowing Wednesday mentality and behavior I knew she was going to take revenge on those who picked on her brother, I think it was hilarious she showed at the swimming pool with some piranhas , but I was still not sure about watching more than the first episode, I actually did not want to watch the Adams Family at all ... Again!!!! But Catherine Zeta Jones was there, and I love her, and love the way she acts, I did not like who played Gomez at all I think they could have chosen a better Gomez instead of having Luis Guzman they should have cast Michael Peña; he would have been a better or best cast for Gomez. Anyways, the first episode went smoothly and I did not feel uncomfortable watching the new role of Wednesday, I thin this new Wednesday is more interesting, fascinating, intriguing, and I simply loved the way Jenna brought this new look on Wednesday, she looks more lively and smarter per say. I was laughing, and I thought it was hilarious I actually watched the entire season 1 in 2 days because I had other things to do otherwise I would have watched the entire season 1 in one day. It was very entertaining and like a new fresh air. I give it 10 thumbs up out of 5, not being an Addams' fan at all

The show has some weaknesses, but Ortega is none of them.

Movie name?

I think no one else is named Phoebe Buffay

you r

She's perfect for Wednesday Addams. Wasn't aware the Addams family was supposed to be Latino especially when Pugsley was a blonde.

okay, can we all just stop saying "Latinx?" that is not a gender neutral term for Spanish/Latin people. It's Latine, not Latinx, cause the e more fluid with the world and it's always been a neutral letter in Spanish speaking households.

absolutely loved the show but the german was.. eh

I think people should stop this ridiculous obsession with Jenna Ortega and the Wednesday series.

"Latinx" 🤦

I thought that dance scene nearly ruined the entire show completely but the rest of the show was actually good enough to save it but you really need to understand how horrible that dance scene actually was and how the show was barely salvageable after that

What an absolutely cringe Mary Sue this show was. Beyond boring.
