Jenna Ortega blew audiences away with her performance as Wednesday Addams in Wednesday, but she could be even more integral for season 2.
Although Netflix's Wednesday came out in late November, the show and its star, Jenna Ortega, are still receiving plenty of hype and rumors are even swirling that Ortega may have a new role lined up for her as executive producer in Wednesday season 2. Jenna Ortega is a 20-year-old actor who has already had a decade-long career spanning from Disney Channel to the Scream franchise.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Jenna Ortega has definitely become a familiar face in the media landscape because of Wednesday season 1, but she certainly won't get stuck in that box for long. In March 2023, Ortega appeared in Scream 6 and the actor has several other projects lined up including a romantic comedy entitled Winter, Summer, Spring, or Fall. Ortega not only stars in the film, but also acted as an executive producer on it as well.
In fact, Ortega's commitment to Wednesday makes her the perfect candidate to commandeer the series. In a recent interview with Armchair Expert, Ortega revealed that she often made changes to Wednesday scripts to ensure that her character remained as accurate as possible. Despite labeling her behavior as bordering on "unprofessional," Ortega also asserted that certain storylines or lines didn't make sense, including Wednesday's season 1 love triangle.
Wednesday Season 2 Could Become More Gory In the most recent years of her career, Jenna Ortega has definitely been drawn to the horror genre, and her experience on horror sets, along with her personal love of the genre, definitely gives her some expertise. Therefore, it could be likely that if Ortega becomes a Wednesday executive producer, the series could become scarier and more adult.
All in all, Jenna Ortega's foray into executive producing will likely be a good thing for her and her fans, whether she is added to Wednesday season 2's producing team or not. Ortega clearly has great ideas and a commitment to her characters that makes her an admirable figure in her profession.
