Wednesday’s Addams Storyline
Wednesday Addams will revolve around the mystery of Wednesday’s parents, in which she will try to unearth this gloomy mystery with her psychic powers. This mystery has haunted her family for decades, and now, Wednesday has her mind on solving this supernatural mystery. In this series, Wednesday will entangle mysteries and hunt down the monsters that have been scaring the people of her town.
In this series, for the first time ever, Wednesday Addams will be a teenager. In all the previous takes on Wednesday, she has been a side character. She has been the little girl who no one pays attention to, the girl who is always on the sideline. Or she has been an adult who has moved out of her home. But in this series, Wednesday is the main character who rules the series.
The Addams family is a family known for its continuous development ever since it was first released. This series is going to be the most recent development the Addams family will witness, one where Wednesday Addams won’t be the side character. In this series, the audience will witness Wednesday at her high school, Nevermore Academy. This academy is led by Larissa Weems, who happens to be a rival to Wednesday’s chaotic mother, Morticia Addams. In this academy, Wednesday will discover her true potential and take over all those who seem to harm her and her family.
This is going to be an 8 to 10-episode series with every episode portraying Wednesday in her own dark, gothic style.
Wednesday Addams Ensemble
In this series, the Addams family will return with the same characters, only different actors. There are four main characters: Morticia Addams, Gomez Addams, Pugsley Addams, and Wednesday Addams.
In this series, one of the youngest actors in the Hollywood industry, Jenna Ortega, will play the eerie role of Wednesday. Catherina Zeta-Jones is going to be the glamorous mother of Wednesday, while Luis Guzman will represent the head of the Addams family. Isaac Ordonez will play the maverick brother of Wednesday in this Netflix series.
The other characters, like Lurch—Wednesday’s favourite butler—and Larissa Weems—Morticia’s archenemy—will be played by George Burcea and Gwendoline Christie.
Christina Ricci, the former Wednesday, is going to be returning in this series as well. She is speculated to play the older version of Wednesday, but there is no official confirmation regarding her role in the series. The officials have kept her role under wraps and she has the audience going berserk crazy over it.

Who is Wednesday?
Wednesday Addams is the only girl in the Addams family, and she is not an ordinary girl. The entire Addams family possesses assorted personalities, but Wednesday is just something else. The black-loving gothic girl with a hint of sadism, Wednesday Addams, has psychopathic tendencies that have been prominent over the years as her character gets more and more defined.
From her first appearance on The New Yorker cartoon show in 1938, Wednesday has seen a lot of changes. She was a nameless character at first and is now a fully developed human with her own personality and values.
Wednesday is known for her sadistic tendencies and her dark dressing style. She has long black hair, a pale skin tone, and a bitter personality. She started as a six-year-old who enjoyed raising spiders as her pets and later evolved into a girl who collected headless dolls for fun. She is known to have an emotionless face that gives her the perfect psychopath look, a look that scares a lot of people.
Aside from this, she has also tried to kill her brother several times by now. She has tortured Pugsley relentlessly, but as the Addams family is known to have supernatural powers, Pugsley did not die. Her parents, Gomez and Morticia, don’t object either, even when they have seen how sadistic their daughter can become.
Sometimes, she’s portrayed as a sweet girl who is always overshadowed by her brother or her glamorous mother. Sometimes, she is sinister and playfully evil. And despite all of this, she is loved by the audience for the sincerity and originality she has always had.
The Development of the Addams Family
The Addams family began as an aristocratic group of people who couldn’t care less about anything other than themselves. In the early years, they were portrayed as that mystifying family to who no one came close.
Morticia Addams was a fan of raising plants and chopping the heads off of roses to see the thorny green stems. She was always dressing well and styling herself to perfection. Morticia had the traditional eerie vibe around her that the Addams family is known for.
Gomez Addams, always dressed in a pinstripe suit with a cigar in his hand, was a man who was nearly obsessed with his wife. He had a short moustache, an innocent face, and the same eerie vibes his wife did.
In her later years, Wednesday Addams was a sweet little girl. She only wore white and black, had her hair braided, and always appeared pale to emphasize her emotionless personality.
Pugsley Addams was portrayed as a chubby kid who was equally sweet and salty. He wore striped shirts and carried a personality that matched his deranged family.
In the years following, the Addams family evolved from an aristocratic family who cared about no other than their family to a family who helped everyone who came their way. They had a huge family with relatives staying with them, but then, one by one, all those relatives passed away, leaving only the immediate members of the Addams family. In some adaptations, Wednesday had supportive parents, and in other adaptations, she was constantly overshadowed by her glamorous mother.
Nonetheless, the family has continued to maintain its spookiness throughout the eight decades of its existence and is continuing to do so.
