The action of the Wednesday series will take place in Nevermore, which still hides many mysteries and secrets from us. This was signaled by one of the series' writers, Miles Millar. In an interview with Netflix, he shared his emotions and thoughts about the future of the series:

It was amazing to create a series that was able to engage so many people around the world. We're thrilled to continue Wednesday's tangled journey in season two. We can't wait to dive into the new season and explore the scary and terrifying world of Nevermore.

The producer and showrunner of the Wednesday series, Alfred Gough, said that the series is primarily about friendship, and Enid and Wednesday became its main characters.

Will this have any impact on their relationship? That's what we'll find out in Wednesday's second season.

Let's get back to the Addams Family

This series was directed by Tim Burton and is a spin-off of the Addams Family stories. It all started with the comics of cartoonist Charles Addams, who in his works ridiculed the image of the ideal American family. The comics became popular, and in 1938 the characters, then unnamed, appeared on the cover of The New Yorker magazine. It received the title "family" only in the 1960s. It was in 1964 that the first series about the Addams family was released - an unusual family who likes what others fear.

However, The Addams Family gained real popularity in 1991 with the premiere of Barry Sonnenfeld's film. The film truly became a cult classic and the characters became part of pop culture. Every Halloween could not be complete without kids dressed as characters from the Addams Family.

Tim Burton was already eligible to direct the film, but he turned it down in 1990 because he was working on a Batman film. Burton, known for his love of Gothic stories, later tried to portray The Addams Family on screen, but was only able to do so this year. This project was the first series in Burton's career.

What is the Wednesday series about?

According to the plot of the series, 15-year-old Wednesday, who was expelled from several schools in one year (in one of them she let piranhas into the school swimming pool), is sent to Nevermore Academy, which her parents once attended and where Edgar Poe himself graduated.

This is a school for people who have a hard time finding their way in ordinary schools for normal people. You may encounter werewolves, vampires and other strange creatures of nature there. They call themselves outcasts. According to Wednesday's parents, she would feel at home among these students and could even make friends with them. However, the main character herself did not share her parents' opinion.

A series of murders occur in a nearby town, which arouses her curiosity and the desire to get to the bottom of the matter. Additionally, the girl must face secrets about her parents.

Who is Wednesday herself?

Wednesday is the oldest daughter of Gomez and Morticia Addams. The heroine has a depressive personality, almost never smiles and likes to bully her younger brother Pugsley. Despite this, she is willing to do anything to protect her family.

Wednesday also looks completely different, with pale skin and dark hair braided into two long, perfectly straight braids. Most of the time she wears a black dress with a white collar and black shoes.

The character's unusual name comes from a nursery rhyme in which the phrase "Wednesday's child is full of woe" is used - which means that a child born on a Wednesday is full of misfortune. It was proposed by a toy manufacturer that produced a series of dolls before the premiere of the first "Addams Family" series in 1964. Interestingly, the heroine also has a middle name - Friday.

Viewers of the Wednesday series noticed that the heroine almost never blinks. According to Jenna Ortega, the idea was accidentally given to her by Tim Burton, who watched the pilot episode in which she didn't blink once and asked her to keep doing it. The actress confessed that this requirement annoyed her during filming, as episodes in which she accidentally blinked had to be reshot.

Dance Wednesday

Even those who haven't seen the show or made it this far have heard of Wednesday's famous dance. The video went viral on social media.

The choreography was created by Jenna Ortega herself. The actress says that if you look at her movements in the frame, it should be obvious that the dance was not choreographed by a professional choreographer. It was a really great idea, because thanks to its expression and charisma, the dance hit the mark and was in line with the trends. Regular users and celebrities alike are trying to replicate Wednesday's dance.

Interestingly, Jenna Ortega was sick with coronavirus while filming the dance scene. She later suggested re-shooting the episode because she thought she could do it better, but the creators refused.

Jenna Ortega won the hearts of viewers

The main role in the Wednesday series was played by actress Jenna Ortega, who had previously appeared in horror films, but gained real popularity after the series was broadcast. Since it appeared on Netflix, the young actress has gained over 10 million followers on Instagram.

The actress says Wednesday is close to her heart. Jenna Ortega has always been attracted to strange things that others usually find downright repulsive.

The main character's style

The Gothic-inspired Gothcore style took over fashion trends a year ago, and the creators of the series did not fail to take advantage of it. However, Wednesday made the trend more subtle. While Gothcore followers opt for sloppy clothes and makeup, Wednesday sets new standards. Her heroine attracts attention with stylish but neat makeup, and her clothes are romantic and aristocratic with the flair typical of a student of an elite school. Her clothes always look aesthetic and neat.

At the beginning of the series, Wednesday appears in a black dress with a pointy white collar. This contrasts with the way students dress in the regular American school the heroine attended. Her clothing is intended to emphasize the difference between her and her peers.

It's not just about the outfit. The heroine has impeccable style throughout the entire series. It comes in layered styles using vests, jackets, bomber jackets and turtlenecks. All this is always in dark colors, because Wednesday is "allergic to colors".

Wednesday's makeup emphasizes her character and complements her gothic-inspired outfits. The heroine gives up pink and chooses darker shades. Her cheekbones are highlighted with a cool bronzer.

The popularity of the Wednesday series

The series managed to gain incredible popularity in a short time after its premiere, even surpassing the fourth season of Strange Things, and currently only surpassed by Squid Game.

The question comes to mind: what attracted young viewers? First of all, the dynamic plot, the gothic atmosphere and the fight of one person against evil in the world.

We all hope that the sequel to Wednesday will be an even better show!
