]]>Netflix previously shared a look of Jenna Ortega as the titular character Wednesday Addams, but they decided to take things up a notch. The new photos also offer a look at Catherine Zeta-Jones as matriarch Morticia, Luis Guzmán as her loyal husband Gomez, and Isaac Ordonez as Wednesday’s hapless brother Pugsley.
Co-creators Miles Millar and Alfred Gough worked closely with executive producer and director Tim Burton on this project, drawing inspiration from Charles Addams’ original cartoons and trying to make something completely unique.
“That’s something that was very important to the show—that it didn’t feel like a remake or a reboot… It’s not trying to be the movies or the ’60s TV show. That was very important to us and very important to Tim,” Millar told Vanity Fair.
This series will center on Wednesday Addams during her time as a high school student at Nevermore Academy, where she attempts to master her psychic powers. It’s set to premiere in the fourth quarter of 2022, but Netflix is yet to confirm its official release date.

Christie will be in a pretty good company when this series premiers on Netflix since its main cast includes Jenna Ortega in the titular role, Luis Guzmán as Gomez, and Catherine Zeta-Jones will star as Morticia Addams. The supporting cast will include Thora Birch, Riki Lindhome, Jamie McShane, Hunter Doohan, and Moosa Mostafa.
Christie made a name for herself with the Emmy-nominated role on Game of Thrones and later went on to play Captain Phasma in the Star Wars franchise. She most recently appeared in movies The Personal History of David Copperfield and Our Friend and is currently attached to Netflix’s adaptation of Neil Gaiman’s iconic comic book series The Sandman.

Wednesday will be directed and executive produced by iconic director Tim Burton. The series, which will have eight episodes, focuses on Wednesday Addams and chronicles her years as a student at Nevermore Academy. It will follow Wednesday as she “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.”
The quirky Addams family originates from The New Yorker cartoons created by Charles Addams in 1938. His works later served as a basis for a movie and television franchise that spanned several live-action and animated projects.
The most famous works featuring the Addams family are a pair of 1990s movies directed by Barry Sonnenfeld. The 1991’s The Addams Family was a big commercial success, while its 1993’s sequel Addams Family Values received an Academy Award nomination and was considered one of the best movies of the year by critics.
