Wednesday is an updated spin on the Addams Family. This series is canon focused on Goth teen Wednesday Addams (Jenna Ortega). The series is billed as “a sleuthing, supernaturally infused mystery charting Wednesday Addams’ years as a student at Nevermore Academy. Wednesday attempts to master her emerging psychic ability, thwart a monstrous killing spree that has terrorized the local town, and solve the supernatural mystery that embroiled her parents 25 years ago — all while navigating her new and very tangled relationships at Nevermore.” As previously announced, Catherine Zeta-Jones and Luis Guzmán also guest star as Wednesday’s parents Morticia and Gomez Addams.
