Wednesday Addams actor Jenna Ortega learned the cello for her part in the upcoming series Wednesday. Based on the Addams Family comic strip first published in 1938, Wednesday marks the latest incarnation of media inspired by the gothic and peculiar family.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY While appearing in a video for WIRED, Ortega discussed her upcoming part in the new series, revealing that her audition with Burton took place over Zoom while still in her death scene make up for the horror film X. The actor also mentioned that she learned the cello for the role of Wednesday, expressing her hope to continue working with the string instrument.
“Actually, I learned to play the cello for Wednesday. I started working on the cello about two months before we started shooting. I probably couldn’t play too well now just because I’ve been away from home so much working, but it is something that I want to continue to purse. I have immense respect for anybody who plays the cello, I think it’s such a delightful instrument.
As Wednesday, Ortega will experience the unique challenge of bringing a cartoonish, gothic, and sadistic character to life while also making viewers care about her and invest in her journey. She also has to balance the expectations of fans who loved Christina Ricci's iteration of Wednesday in the 1991 film.
With Burton's enthusiasm for Ortega's role in the upcoming series as well as the positive response the actor has already earned from viewers eager to see more of her morose character, it's clear that Wednesday is in good hands. Ortega will star alongside Catherine Zeta-Jones, Luis Guzmán, and Isaac Ordonez as the members of her nuclear family, with George Burcea, Fred Armisen, and Victor Dorobantu playing Lurch, Uncle Fester, and Thing, respectively.
