→‎Main: I removed all the spoilers. I had looked up information on the cast and it really hurt my experience of the series. The Wikipedia:Spoiler page says that spoilers can be mentioned if they contribute to the material for scholarly purposes. For example, it would be foolish not to reveal the ending of Oedipus Rex because it's a spoiler. This is a commercial, recent series. There is no recent to reveal all of its endings in the cast list. It's gratuitous and hurtful to do so.

Wednesday is an American coming of age supernatural comedy horror television series based upon the character Wednesday Addams from The Addams Family. Created by Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, it stars Jenna Ortega as the title character, with Catherine Zeta-Jones, Luis Guzmán, Isaac Ordonez, Gwendoline Christie, Riki Lindhome, Jamie McShane, Fred Armisen, and Christina Ricci appearing in supporting roles. Four out of the eight episodes are directed by Tim Burton, who also serves as executive producer. It revolves around the titular character, who attempts to solve a monster mystery at her school.

Burton was previously associated with two Addams Family-related projects: the 1991 film, which he passed on, and a cancelled stop-motion animated film. In October 2020, he was reported to be helming a television series, which was later given a series order by Netflix. Filming took place in Romania between September 2021 and March 2022. Wednesday premiered on November 16, 2022, and was released on Netflix on November 23 to generally positive reviews by critics, who praised Ortega's performance,[1] but criticized it for its similarities to CW dramas.[2]

A drawing in the book leads her to an exhibition at a local fair, where she notices the painting of a girl she had seen in her visions. In the forest, Wednesday envisions the girl—believed to be an old ancestor of hers—ready to be executed by Joseph Crackstone, the town's forefather intent on killing all misfits, but she is able to escape.

There, she retrieves one of its claws and gives it to Sheriff Galpin to match its DNA. Wednesday and Tyler attend a local dance together. Meanwhile, classmate Eugene, who is privy to Wednesday's investigative work, witnesses a cloaked figure detonating the monster's cave.

In prison, Gomez reveals to Wednesday that Gates was killed by accident, while Morticia confesses to killing Gates. Wednesday and Morticia dig up Gates's grave to find that he had been lethally poisoned before he could be killed, but are caught by police and arrested for the night. Later, they confront the mayor, who reveals that Garrett intended to poison the entire school due to his father's hate for outcasts.

After a struggle, Wednesday destroys Crackstone and kills Gates. Xavier is released from prison, and Wednesday departs Nevermore for the holidays.

Production

Development

During pre-production on the 1991 film, Tim Burton was assigned to direct, but ended up passing on it due to scheduling conflicts with Batman Returns, resulting in Barry Sonnenfeld taking the job.[4] In March 2010, it was announced that Illumination Entertainment had acquired the underlying rights to the Addams Family drawings.[5] The film was planned to be a stop-motion animated film based on Charles Addams' original drawings. Burton was set to co-write, co-produce, and possibly direct the film.[6] In July 2013, it was reported that the film was cancelled,[7] which, according to Burton, was due to the studio favoring a computer-animated approach over the stop-motion technique.[8]

To showrunners Alfred Gough and Miles Millar's surprise, Burton immediately became interested upon receiving the script.[9] Commenting about his decision to join the project, Burton stated that he could relate to the title character's worldview and that the script "spoke to me about how I felt in school and how you feel about your parents, how you feel as a person. It gave the Addams Family a different kind of reality. It was an interesting combination."[8] Millar stated that it was "very important" to the creative team not to emulate the prior films and 1964 television series.[9] In October 2020, Wednesday was initially announced as an unnamed Addams Family project being helmed by Burton. The series' production would be handled by MGM Television, with Burton as director. Gough and Millar would serve as showrunners; while Gough, Millar, and Burton would also be executive producers alongside Gail Berman, Jon Glickman, and Andrew Mittman.[10] In February 2021, Netflix gave the production a series order, consisting of eight episodes.[11] In August 2021, Kayla Alpert was added as an executive producer and 1.21, Tee and Charles Addams Foundation, and Glickmania were also producing the series.[12] Deemed his "first real foray into television", Burton directed four out of the eight episodes,[9] with Gandja Monteiro and James Marshall directing the remaining episodes.[13] Burton brought on regular collaborator Colleen Atwood as costume designer.[9]

Casting

In May 2021, Jenna Ortega was cast in the title role.[14] Ortega said that she was initially hesitant about joining the project due to her past work in teen-oriented Disney Channel shows.[3] Millar stated that, upon their first Zoom call together, the creative team knew that "nobody else on this planet" was better suited to portray the character.[15] In the beginning of August of that year, Luis Guzmán was cast to guest-star as Gomez Addams,[12] and Catherine Zeta-Jones was cast as Morticia Addams in an undisclosed capacity.[16] Later that month, Thora Birch, Riki Lindhome, Jamie McShane, Hunter Doohan, Georgie Farmer, Moosa Mostafa, Emma Myers, Naomi J. Ogawa, Joy Sunday, and Percy Hynes White were announced to be cast as series regulars.[17] In September, Gwendoline Christie and Victor Dorobantu were added to the cast in starring roles while Isaac Ordonez, George Burcea, Tommie Earl Jenkins, Iman Marson, William Houston, Luyanda Unati Lewis-Nyawo, Oliver Watson, Calum Ross, and Johnna Dias Watson were cast in recurring roles.[18] In December 2021, Birch left the series, leaving the status of her character, dorm mother Tamara Novak, unclear.[19] In March 2022, it was announced that Christina Ricci, who played Wednesday Addams in the 1991 film and its 1993 sequel, was cast as a series regular.[20] In October of that year, Fred Armisen was revealed to be portraying Uncle Fester in an unknown capacity, and Ricci's role was confirmed as Marilyn Thornhill.[21]

Filming

Filming on the series began in September 2021 in the Southern Carpathian town Bușteni in Romania, and concluded in March 2022.[22][23] Filming locations included Cantacuzino Castle, serving as the setting for the fictional Nevermore Academy, Politehnica University of Bucharest, Sinaia railway station, the Bucharest Botanical Garden, Monteoru House, and the historic Olga Greceanu Mansion in Dâmbovița County, standing in for the Gates mansion. Other settings, including the entire fictional town of Jericho, were constructed at Buftea Studios.[24][25] Ortega called her work on the series "very stressful and confusing" and "the most overwhelming job I've ever had" due to the production's fast-tracked shooting schedule.[26] Ortega avoided talking to Ricci about playing the character during filming in order to achieve her own unique rendition of the role.[27] She choreographed her dance to The Cramps' "Goo Goo Muck" herself, taking inspiration from Siouxsie Sioux, Bob Fosse, and goth dance club footage from the 1980s.[28][29] To prepare for her role, Ortega learned to play cello and took canoeing, fencing, archery, and German lessons.[15] According to actress Joy Sunday, the canoeing lessons were especially strenuous, involving the entire cast and some dozen stuntmen racing each other for an hour daily, with days starting as early as 5:30 am.[30]

Music

In December 2021, it was reported that Danny Elfman joined the series to compose the original theme[31] with Chris Bacon as a co-composer.[13] Wednesday's soundtrack was released on November 23, 2022,[32] and features several pop songs, including "Paint It Black" by the The Rolling Stones, "Nothing Else Matters" by Metallica, and "Physical" by Dua Lipa.[33]

Release

Wednesday premiered on November 16, 2022, at Hollywood Legion Theater in Los Angeles.[34][35] Its eight episodes were released on Netflix on November 23, 2022.[36]

Reception

The review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes reported a 72% approval rating and an average rating of 6.7/10, based on 64 reviews. The website's critics consensus reads, "Wednesday isn't exactly full of woe for viewers, but without Jenna Ortega in the lead, this Addams Family-adjacent series might as well be another CW drama."[2] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned a score of 66 out of 100 based on 26 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[37]

Ed Power of The Daily Telegraph gave Wednesday four out of five stars and called it "an addictively rococo romp that unfolds like a cross between Euphoria and Hotel Transylvania".[38] John Anderson of The Wall Street Journal commended Ortega's "charismatic performance" and called the series "often delightful, despite its deliberate darkness".[39] In his "B"-review for The Detroit News, Tom Long deemed the series visually appealing and described Ortega's deadpan as "just as elastic as it needed to be" and her performance overall as "consistently [pushing] outside the caricature enough to keep things lively".[40] Writing for RogerEbert.com, Cristina Escobar similarly praised Ortega's deadpan humor and commended the series' "satisfactory" ending.[41] While finding that the series would not be "what real fans of Charles Addams and his characters are looking for", Mike Hale of The New York Times called the series "tolerable" despite "satisfying only on the level of formulaic teenage romance and mystery".[42] Nick Hilton of The Independent gave the series two out of five stars and criticized the series' tone as "relentlessly quippy Gen Z" and its performances as "more two-dimensional than the New Yorker comic strip in which the characters first appeared".[43]
