If you haven’t seen Wednesday on Netflix yet, it’s a reimagining of The Addams Family from Wednesday Addams’ perspective.
Jenna Ortega plays the titular character and see just might be the best casting I’ve ever seen for any role.
Seriously…

Once Jenna put the word out she’d be playing Wednesday, we all knew this was good casting…

And when she showed us how she’d look in character, we were here for it.
Because everybody knew we can’t wait for great things.

The rest of the Addams fam is pretty spot-on too, with Catherine Zeta-Jones and Luis Guzman playing Morticia and Gomez.

And please give us more of that DARK dark. Like Prisoner of Azkaban.
wednesday is just too good… it feels so nostalgic and reminiscent of media like harry potter. from the dark academia aesthetic to the plot then paired with the mystery… ITS JUST TOO GOOD.

Netflix? Got any answers? We need a Season 2 announcement!
Btw, can we just put some appreciation on this queen? Even at the premiere she’s in character.
Fully in love with Jenna’s mood.
Bring us all of that Wednesday energy!
