Every goth teenage detective was once a sweet little girl just walking her pet scorpion. Wednesday
Editor's Note: The following contains spoilers for Wednesday Season 1.Who is Wednesday Addams? Well, the answer to that question really depends on who you ask. To Charles Addams, she was a sweet, but sad little girl. To director Barry Sonnenfeld and screenwriters Caroline Thompson, Larry Wilson , and Paul Rudnick , she is basically a psycho killer in training. To Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, creators of Netflix’s newest teen show, Wednesday, she is a bit of both - and even a little more.
Ortega’s character is basically a direct continuation of Christina Ricci’s take on Wednesday for The Addams Family and Addams Family Values. It’s not hard to see the connection between both versions of the character and picture them as the same person in different stages of life: Ricci is Wednesday as a tween, while Ortega is the Addams girl in the height of adolescence.
In Netflix’s Wednesday, this critical and historical accuracy-concerned side of Wednesday is brought up through the character’s relationship with the pilgrim-obsessed town of Jericho, in which Nevermore Academy is located. The plot has Wednesday and her ancestors stand in direct opposition to the first English colonizers, who hated outcasts nearly as much as they hated the native people of the land.
In Wednesday, the moments in which Wednesday feels proper sadness are extremely rare. Still, the character retains some of the woefulness that plagued her first iteration. Most notably, Morticia brings up “Monday’s Child” when explaining Wednesday’s name to Principal Weems , but there’s also a lot of heartbreak and sorrow to be found in the prophecies about how Wednesday’s destiny is to be alone.
